Vocation Brewery Chop & Change Centennial
English Pale Ale 4.5 º
This modern interpretation of an Ordinary Bitter utilizes a minimalist pale malt base to showcase the distinct personality of Centennial hops. The sensory profile opens with a vibrant bouquet of grapefruit zest and floral blossoms, underscored by a clean, bready malt foundation. Despite its sessionable strength, the beer delivers a firm bitterness that remains well-integrated, never becoming harsh. The use of Centennial provides a citrusy edge that complements the light, fruity esters produced during fermentation. It finishes remarkably crisp and dry, balancing traditional British sessionability with the bold, punchy aromatics of Pacific Northwest hops for a refreshing, hop-forward experience.
Appearance. Pale amber with brilliant clarity. Pours with a moderate white head that shows good retention and leaves light lacing on the glass.
Aroma. Moderate intensity featuring prominent floral and citrusy hop notes, specifically grapefruit and lemon. Supported by a low, clean bready and biscuity malt character with subtle fruity esters.
Taste. Initial impression is a sharp, clean bitterness followed by light toasted bread and biscuit flavors. The Centennial hops provide dominant flavors of lemon peel and dried flowers. Bitterness is medium-high but balanced by the malt. Finishes very dry and clean with a lingering citrus zest aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with moderate carbonation. Smooth and highly drinkable with no perceptible alcohol warmth and a crisp, non-astringent finish.

BREWERY INFO
VOCATION -John Hickling worked in IT for a bank. The money was good, but he had a desire to create something more than spreadsheets. As a beer fanatic, he decided to try brewing his own. He built a tiny brewery in his kitchen with plastic buckets and parts from a hardware store. Brewing beer was a revelation. His friends agreed the beer he made at home was better than they could buy in the pub, and he dreamed of turning his passion into a business.
Inspired, he quit his job, sold his house and co-founded his first brewery in 2008. The awards soon rolled in, and the brewery was a storming success. After five years, he felt he had taken the business as far as he could. He sold his stake in the brewery, and started thinking about new projects. But he had a problem: he desperately missed brewing. It took selling his first brewery for him to realise that brewing was never just a job, it was his vocation.
He decided to start from scratch and apply all the accumulated knowledge he’d gained at his first brewery into something and somewhere new. In 2015 Vocation Brewery was born, with one member of staff, a rebuilt chicken shed, and a dog for company. Today we have around 60 staff, and sell the equivalent of 10 million cans per year. We’ve come a long way, but it’s still our vocation.
