  • Classic backbone for American IPAs, APAs, and robust wheat beers
  • Suitable for use at all stages: bittering, flavor, aroma, whirlpool, and dry hopping
  • Pairs well with other C-hops (Cascade, Columbus, Chinook) for layered complexity

Fun Fact:
Centennial is one of the “Three Cs” (Cascade, Centennial, Columbus)—the backbone of American IPA flavor. It’s revered for its ability to provide both a classic and modern hop punch without overpowering balance.
