If you enjoy Punk IPA, you could probably double that dry hop and quadruple the late hops and still love it. :lol:
Yeah, I agree with you on this. Citra are really powerful hops and dry hopping with 50g might be like getting punched in the face by a 10foot tall grapefruit.

I'd split the batch and dry hop half and leave half as is. That way you'll satisfy your curiosity and be able to make an informed decision AND you'll have some tasty citra hops left over for your next brew. Ecomomy... it's how I roll. :D

Sorry to drag to the top but what did you decide? I'm looking at doing something very similar.
