2021 - 56 กรัม Centennial Hops - Best Hop for West Coast IPAs Centennial Hop Profile Centennial has become one of the most well-respected hop varieties since being released in 1990. Centennial, named after the centennial anniversary of Washington state, is incredibly well-rounded and useful for bittering, flavor, aroma, and dry-hopping. It quickly developed the nickname Super Cascade for its vibrant citrus and soft pine characteristics. Centennial is the featured hop in legendary IPAs such as Russian River's Pliny the Elder, Founders' Centennial IPA, and Bell's Two Hearted Ale. Recommended Styles: IPA, IPA, Double IPA, or IPA Alpha Acid: 7% to 12% Typical Usage: Dual purpose. Cascade is the hop that made hops famous. It single-handedly defined the American Pale Ale style. Cascade is bursting with zesty grapefruit flavor and aroma from the high levels of myrcene oil. It lends a pleasant and balanced bitter, but is ideally used in late hop additions to maximize that bright flavor and aroma. The bright citrus is backed by some soft floral and spice, which rounds out the profile. Brewing with fresh leaf from this iconic hop is a real treat. The notorious king hop of pale ales.
