Cascade Centennial FWH Late Hops
This is beer 11 in our 2 hop series. This takes the base Cascade Centennial and moves the late addition hops to smash out. In first wort hopping you want to take the late hop additions and use them in the mash out. Here is the recipe I used. This was for a 1.25 gallons going into the carboy.
2 LBS 4 oz 2-Row
.25 oz Centennial 60 min
.25 oz Cascade FWH
.25 oz Centennial FWH
.25 oz of both 3 days into fermentation
US-05 Yeast
Color: Orange yellow. Low hazy
Smell: Pine citrus floral. The smell is not that big. I was thinking you would get a big smell from using the FWH hops.
Taste: Pine citrus with some yeast. I do not like this one. Lots of floral with some bitterness.
Overall: The floral is just over the top for me in this beer. If you like floral this might be the beer for you.
