True To Style – All Grain Recipe Kits #4 West Coast Pale with Centennial 

These all grain kits are all designed with one thing in mind, making great tasting beer at affordable prices. We’ve built and created this range to offer our first “core” range of all grain kits that represent either great ingredients, methods or beer styles which we adore.

All of them are 23 litre batches and come in at sensible strengths for the mid week beers or sessions at the weekend! Read our full blog post on this range here!

This recipe is all about showcasing the team favourite hop, Centennial. With its classic west coast profile, Centennial brings top notes of lemon in the aroma but then packs in dank pine and resin to balance itself out. It’s the perfect hop for a single hop pale or IPA and we had to include it into this range.
