Our first Fresh Hop draft release of the season, Fresh Hop Pale featuring Centennial hops! Profile: Rainbow Sherbet, Ripe Mango, Watermelon | 5.4%, 35 IBU

Fresh Hop Pale is built off the pFriem Pale base beer, but we add 10 pounds per barrel of fresh Centennial hops into our brite tank, recirculating the beer until we achieve high amounts of hop saturation.

Centennial is a classic in the world of American craft beer. Released in 1990 by the USDA breeding program in Washington state, it quickly earned the nickname “Super Cascade” due to its similar but more potent aromatic and bittering qualities. Centennial provides a bold and familiar profile. It’s known for its prominent citrus, particularly grapefruit, alongside distinct floral and resinous pine characteristics. This makes it a versatile hop, prized by brewers for its ability to be used for both bittering and aroma additions.
