You know you did it wrong when...

When decide on that beer you haven't done in a while or a new beer, which uses one special ingredient. You know you have it, so you set up for it, start prep, all they way through grinding the grist only to find you are missing one key ingredient; yeast, malt, whatever.
Of COURSE there is zero chance of you procuring this in time for the brew...

And that's not only when brewing!
Or you know you got that piece of equipment, but it is not in the place that you were 100% sure it was.
 
I lost my ipod classic a few years ago, couldn't find it anywhere for months. It was very upsetting. I found a refurbished one on Amazon so I bought it, and it wasn't cheap either. About 3 months later of course I found it, right where I left it. As soon as I saw it I actually remembered the day I put it there.
So yeah, now I have two!
 
Or that piece of paper with some info, phone number or so, that you kept for a long long long time.
Then you throw it out and the next day you need it ;)
 
Kind of the definition of junk, all that stuff laying around until you get tired of looking at it and throw it away. Then need it the next day.

One is none and two is one.

Well I cold hopped the wrong fermenter
I wanted to cold hop the Resilience IPA but threw the hops in the Golden Ale
I guess the Golden is now a Pale Ale
I did DH the IPA after I caught my mistake

Well sure you can but then your pushing the style out of Golden Ale territory
This was actually a beer I was trying to compare to another version I made using some home roasted barley that's more of my concern

I think it depends on who you ask, but the BJCP 2021 guidelines describes a Golden ale as hop forward. Hop aroma and flavor can be moderately high with IBUs up to 45, and here's the first sentence from the comments section: Well-hopped, quenching beer with an emphasis on showcasing hops.

It's definitely a pale ale though but not high in IBU or ABV that's why I chose it to highlight the malt. Mines probably not a Golden anyway because it's over 5%

Ah yes that little piece of paper or for us carpenters the little block of wood with all the #s

When I worked construction in high school and summers I was usually cleaning up the site at the end of the day. I would always save those scraps and put on top of the boxes of nails or paint etc.
