Centennial Hop Pellets
Centennial hops are indeed a versatile and popular choice among brewers for their dual-purpose application. They are often compared to Cascade hops but are typically higher in alpha acids, contributing to their more pronounced bitterness. This makes them ideal for crafting the bold flavors found in pale ales and IPAs, where their unique blend of floral and citrus notes can really shine through, adding depth and complexity to the beer's profile. Their robust character is also well-suited for dry-hopping, where they can impart a fresh, zesty aroma without overwhelming the senses.
