The Cascade wet hop pale ale I brewed a couple weeks ago has turned out pretty disappointing. I used 6 ounces of them at both 10 minutes and flameout hoping to get some nice flavor/aroma out of them. Tasted after fermentation had finished, and it was a very bland beer. So I dry hopped with 2 ounces of El Dorado for 5 days then kegged. Still getting little aroma.
Decided this was a job for Citra, so I just keg hopped with a couple ounces of that in some mesh tea balls. Hopefully that's enough to kick this beer up a notch.

My experience with El Dorado was similar, you're just not going to get a nice hop aroma and punch
When you add hops to the keg in the mesh ball, do you just drop it in there or suspend it in some sort of way?

I have a very similar beer at the house currently.
