Grow Hop Centennial (Phillips) 2011 =9/10
Ratebeer 3.9/5 (two reviews - Thanks CapFlu)
Beer Advocate A-
Individual hop beers are getting pretty popular; Grow Hop focuses on the Centennial. This hop variety is very Cascade-like: lots of floral, citrus and some pine. Boy does this beer deliver the citrus goodness. It is everywhere: the nose, upfront, backend and after very burp. There is a bit of floral and pine mixed in for good measure. The citrus invokes thoughts of pomelo and limes. Bready malts are barely noticeable and the astringency is present but not overpowering. You might call this one a bright hoppy brew.
