Founders Centennial IPA

While waiting in line for the new release from Half Acre Beer Company I hoping that I would be home in time to partake of Galatic Double Daisy Cutter: a version of Double Daisy Cutter that uses galaxy hops. While waiting in line my one child came over stating that we were eating at the Bad Apple again: a restaurant across the street from Half Acre with a fairly solid tap list. I knew then that Galactic Double Daisy Cutter wasn’t in the cards for beer number 262.

While sitting down to dinner I scoured the beer list with Centennial IPA from Founders Brewing Company caught my eye. I have been on an American IPA kick as of late and Centennial was going to scratch the itch.

Easy drinking, even the wife liked it, with just enough hops to balance out some pale and caramel malts. This is a year round offering from Founders that is worth trying out. In my case over and over again. Enjoy!

Useless Fact: The National Safety Council reports that seventy people a day die in home accidents in the United States. Falls account for the greatest number of deaths. Next in frequency are fire, poisoning, electrocution, and choking on food. Most of the people who die from falls are over sixty-five. Middle-aged people and infants die most often in fires. Teenagers succumb primarily to poison and drugs.
