    I have drank the bottle dregs of a heavily hopped IPA, and that was a blast of bitter lupulin. The only commerical beer I have ever seen lupulin glands in was Troegs' Perpetual IPA, I got the last growler fill from a keg that kicked mid-pour.

    UPDATE...
    Its only been a couple weeks since first trying and getting that taste. Cracked one to try it (impatient I am) The taste is almost gone already. still hints of it but nothing like it was. I guess it was (and is) too "green" yet. Brewing another batch of it this weekend! This time however it will sit in a secondary for 60 days and get bottle conditioned. This stuff is almost exactly like New Hollands Black Tulip.
    Thanks for all the help folks!

    Glad to hear that your beer turned out well.

    It sounds like your yeast settled out over time.

    Cheers!
