Capturing the peak of the hop harvest, Centennial hops grown at Topp’s Hops in the Chilliwack Valley are picked at their prime and rushed to our brewery the very same day! Expect aromas of delicate citrus notes.

473 ml can (stamped “2023-09-26”) poured into a nonic pint glass. Nearly clear, deep golden yellow with a billowing head of white bubbles. Light and delicate IPA goodness, with aromas of citrus, pine and tropical fruit. Lean malt base with all the right hop notes of citrus, pine, subtle dank and pleasantly light bitter close. Light to medium body and moderate carbonation. Deftly hopped with delicate and delicious citrus hop notes.
