A dual hop IPA which brings together two New World hop varieties from opposite ends of the Pacific to create a harmonious blend. From the US, Centennial provides citrus, floral and earthy characteristics; from New Zealand, Dr Rudi brings grass, citrus and pine flavours. These are paired together and added to the boil at four different stages; the resulting beer is hop forward but well balanced, with a refreshing bitterness that doesn’t overpower.
