I am working on a house IPA that is coming out too fruity and floral. I am doing all late boil additions, a whirlpool, and dry hopping but don't know where the problem is coming from. I am fermenting at 65 degrees (wort temp) so I don't thinkit's esters. But it seems like no matter what I do in the dryhop, the fruity/floral aromas are always there. If the beer sits in the glass undisturbed, you can smell the dry hop combo. But if swirled, that fruitiness comes right out.
The hops lineup is a bunch of C hops. Anyone have any experience with this happening? Is it yeast derived, or hops? If hops, I assume it is coming from the late additions or whirlpool, right? Would raising the ferm temp decrease fruitiness? Seems to go against everything I've read.
