21st Amendment Brewery and Peet’s Coffee, two beloved San Francisco Bay Area craft beverage brands, joined forces for the first time with the launch of the 1966 Coffee IPA (6.8% ABV, 50 IBUs). Part of the 21st Amendment’s acclaimed "Insurrection Series," this limited-edition beverage pays homage to the coffee bar's roots, which began in 1966.
The 1966 Coffee IPA is handcrafted with Peet’s Ethiopian Super Natural and features a malt structure with defined bitterness. It boasts a bold and full flavor profile with notes of fruity blueberries and bright citrus from the Columbus, Citra, Amarillo, and Centennial hops.
The limited-edition ale will be released nationally across 28 states starting February 1, 2020, and comes in 12-ounce cans of six-packs and draft.
