Coast to Coast

This is an ÅBEN and Mikkeller collaboration.

Coast to Coast is a West Coast - East Coast IPA. It is made with a west coast IPA hop profile but an east coast IPA malt bill, hence the name. Early in 2020, we went to New Zealand to explore some of the world's best hops. And what we came home with went into this special IPA.

It is clocking in at 7.1% and made exclusively with New Zealand hops (Nectaron, Riwaka and Rakau) giving it a lot of body and fruitiness. We wanted to do something that was out of the ordinary when Mikkel from Mikkeller came to the brewery and so we did. Coast to Coast was released in Mikkeller Beer Celebration Virtual 2.0 (MBCV) 12 December 2020.
