Centennial is the featured hop in legendary IPAs such as Russian River's Pliny the Elder and Bell's Two Hearted Ale..Recommended Styles: IPA, IPA, Double IPA, or IPA
Alpha Acid: 7% to 12%

CENTENNIAL HOP SUBSTITUTION
Centennial hops carry similar characteristics as Cascade, Columbus, and Simcoe, making them the perfect substitutions in your next brew! These hops are often used for bittering, but are capable of sanding on their own in single hopped beers.
