A Note on This Beer
Drink an IPA on release day, straight off the keg, moments after the brewery doors open -- your tastebuds do the cha cha for the vivid hop character. And it’s not just because you’ve been standing in lines for hours to get a sip! It’s because this is the freshest it gets, right?
Wrong! Seattle’s Fremont Brewing adds fresh hops to their Field to Ferment Centennial within 2 hours of being harvested. This lighting fast turnaround multiplies the fresh hoppy potency by a zillion -- with this much hop impact, your tongue will experience freshness it can’t get from any other IPA style.
Fresh Hop beers are prized for their distinct, intense range of flavors and aromas that aren’t found in pelletized hops. In Field to Ferment, Fremont highlights fresh Yakima Valley-grown Centennial Hops for their deep coniferous, herbal character. Take a sip and your taste buds will stroll through endless rows of green fields. This brew sings with sweet pine, deep resin, orange marmalade, and finishes with a sharp, snappy bitterness.
Hopheads know time is of the essence when it comes to beers like this, but you haven’t tasted true freshness until you’ve tried Field to Ferment. Grab today’s Fresh Hop Centennial -- it’s time to redefine the meaning of the word fresh.
