Centennial Hops
Centennial hops are a balanced bittering and aromatic hop with a decidedly American nature and uniquely pungent flavor. An intense citrus aroma with pronounced lemon notes also gives off some floral qualities that blend well with IPAs, APAs, and Pale Ales.
Centennial hops are sometimes referenced to as a super charged Cascade without the grapefruit flavors of Cascade. Centennial hops also blend well with Chinook and Columbus hops.
