BuckleDown has come up with am interesting combination of hops for their Clencher DIPA. I’ve used Centennial quite a bit in my last few brews. Having not yet brewed with Simcoe, it’s something I’ll be looking to use in the future. The floral and citrus undertones that make up the majority of the flavor in this beer are generated by the centennial hops. It makes for a pleasant compliment and an all around good beer.
From the BuckleDown Brewing website:
Hops are the hero in this powerhouse. Hopped throughout with Simcoe and Centennial, Clencher is loaded with pine and citrus aromas and the body and alcohol to compliment it’s assertive flavors.
