Description
Stigbergets West Coast IPA – all-grain beer kit from Stigbergets Brewery in Gothenburg
In collaboration with Stigbergets Brewery in Gothenburg, we offer the brewery’s flagship as an all-grain beer kit. This is not a West Coast IPA as many know it, with high old-school bitterness. It is Stigbergets’ interpretation: a Scandinavian west coast with seagulls, more rocks and friendlier people. The result is a fruity, hazy NEIPA with low bitterness, generously hopped with Citra and Mosaic, with Simcoe in the boil and whirlpool. The malt base is extra pale malt, oats and wheat.
Stigbergets Brewery was founded in Gothenburg in 2013. With a focus on innovation and quality, their beers have become known among beer enthusiasts around the world. In 2021 the brewery was named Årets Ölutvecklare in Sweden.

How to brew Stigbergets West Coast IPA
An all-grain beer kit is for brewers who brew from scratch with a brewing system or kettle: you mash, sparge and boil yourself, following the brewing instructions included in the kit.
A NEIPA is sensitive to oxidation. Avoid splashing during transfers, and keg the beer if you can, where the hop aroma lasts longest.
To protect quality and shelf life, we store the malt uncrushed. You can choose to have us crush the malt when you order. If you do not already have a grain mill, we recommend getting one so that you have freshly crushed malt on brew day.
Frequently asked questions about the Stigbergets West Coast IPA all-grain beer kit
Is this a classic West Coast IPA?
No. The name is Stigbergets’ take on the west coast. The beer is a fruity, hazy NEIPA with low bitterness (23 IBU), hopped with Citra, Mosaic and Simcoe.
Which yeast is used, and how is the beer fermented?
The kit uses two sachets of LalBrew New England dry yeast. The beer ferments for 10 days at 18 °C, then 4 days at 22 °C.
How much beer does the kit make?
The kit makes about 22–23 litres of finished beer, with 28 litres pre-boil and about 25 litres into the fermenter.
Is the malt crushed?
The malt is stored uncrushed, because crushed malt starts losing flavour and aroma. You can choose crushed malt when ordering, or crush it yourself just before brewing.
