Tasting Notes
Through every iteration of our growth over the last demi-decade, one thing that has persisted throughout is this brewery’s love of hops, and how we’ve born an entire business that now looks after the livelihoods of fourteen team members from this love. The Hop Studio felt like a natural extension of this love - showcasing the single most complex, wonderfully diverse ingredient we use in our process bar none. Centennial is a personal favourite of the older school beer drinkers here at Polly’s - a varietal first developed in 1974 and released in 1990, this OG of the craft beer revolution in the US is considered one of the classic C hops that represent all of the boundless depths of flavour and aroma these flagbearers of the West Coast were able to rinse from this new wave of US beers. Best served (in our opinion anyway) in a robust, punchy, super crushable pale ale, this single hop smasher brings those classic C-hop characteristics of fresh citrus, pine needles, and resinous bitterness to the party in a beer that straddles the mark between old school crisp and new school juice.
