Quiet Storm Centennial which is an homage to one of the original West Coast hops that became synonymous with some of the most famous IPA’s to come out of the USA in the 90’s. The most noticeable attribute of the hop is the presence of citrus in its many forms including tangerine, pomelo and blood orange.

Keg @ Little Pub, Vaasa. Poured almost clear golden with a thick creamy head. Citrusy hops, floral and light grassy hops. Fairly dry, bitter finish. Good drinkability, clean.

Big gushing bubbly head, clear pale yellow colour, citrus and a melange of tropical fruits, medium mellow citrusy bitterness. Classic.

Can. Thornbridge subscription box. Clear gold. Dense and soggy white foam. Looks well. Nose has fresh bready malt up front with notes of marmalade and herbal peppery hop leaf. Clean and easy drinking with a semi sweet element. Lightly peppery bitterness too. Clean bitter finish. Nice one. Would smash.

Can. Bright clear gold beer, good white head. Smooth palate, a mild mild dryness, decent fine carbonation. Light malts, slightly soft and semi dry, a thin but pleasing creamy sweetness. The Centennial hops present mandarin, a light tangerine and quite a pronounced if soft lemongrass here, backed up by soft black pepper. Pine in the background. Smooth and semi dry finish. Decent single hop showcase and brings out a lesser seen aspect of this great hop.

440ml can from Thornbridge Beer Club - Clear gold body, fairly heavy white top. Nose is faint citrus, a bit of resin, some grassiness. Taste is the strong point, really fresh hoppy citrus front, clean and slightly bitter at the back.

Rocky white head on a slowly carbonating clear amber coloured body. Lacking on the aroma with biscuit & stone fruit. Medium bodied, smooth over the tongue with a foamy sticky back. Bitter citrus, malt, pine, earthy & pith tastes. One of the better ones from the series.
