You are a bit low on the gravity too, for an IPA. At 1.048 you have an american pale ale, not an IPA.

I would be shooting for 1.055 minimum, 1.060+ preferably.

A dry hop helps too.

What was your total hop bill? Centennial + Cascade is a magic combination. Have a session pale ale in bottles that is very lightly hopped with both (only 16g of each at 4 different additions).
