A crisp, hop-forward Cold IPA with a clean, dry finish, bright hop aroma, and light body—designed for refreshing drinkability and modern IPA character.

This Cold IPA blends the bold hop presence of an IPA with the smooth, clean finish of a lager. Expect bright citrus and subtle herbal hop notes layered over a light malt backbone. Fermented with lager yeast at cool temperatures (58–68°F, tolerant up to 72°F), this beer maintains clarity and dryness without the heaviness or haze of traditional IPAs. The result is a highly drinkable beer that highlights hop flavor while staying crisp and refreshing.

Brewing your Cold IPA is simple and beginner-friendly:

Brew: Steep specialty grains, boil the wort, and add hops to build clean, hop-forward flavor
Ferment: Transfer to the carboy and ferment with lager yeast cool — 58–68°F, tolerant up to 72°F — for a crisp, clean profile
Bottle: Bottle your beer and allow it to naturally carbonate
Enjoy: After conditioning, your Cold IPA is ready to drink in about 4 weeks

No prior brewing experience required. Just follow the included step-by-step guide.
