Centennial T90 Hop Pellets

Description

Centennial T90 Hop Pellets are a classic American hop known for their citrus, grapefruit and floral character, supported by pine and light resinous notes.

Centennial offers plenty of versatility throughout the brewing process. Its combination of bitterness, flavour and aroma makes it a popular choice for American-style pale ales, IPAs and other hop-forward beers.

Aroma & Flavour

Centennial can contribute:

• Citrus
• Grapefruit
• Floral notes
• Pine
• Light resinous character

Its combination of citrus and floral character works particularly well when you want a classic American hop profile.

Brewing with Centennial Hops

Centennial works well as a dual-purpose hop. You can use it for bittering early in the boil or add it later to bring more citrus, grapefruit and floral character into the beer.

Whirlpool and dry-hop additions can further highlight its aroma. In addition, Centennial pairs well with other American hop varieties when you want to build a more complex hop profile.

Suitable Beer Styles

Centennial is well suited to:

• American Pale Ale
• India Pale Ale (IPA)
• Double IPA
• American Amber Ale
• American Blonde Ale
• American Wheat Beer
• Porter and Stout

Hop Substitutes

If Centennial is unavailable, possible substitutes include Cascade and Amarillo. Both can provide citrus and floral character suitable for many of the same beer styles.

However, each hop has its own flavour profile and alpha acid level. Therefore, adjust your recipe and hop quantities as required when making a substitution.
