MILWAUKEE (February 19, 2024) – In the world of craft beer, IPAs rule the landscape. New England, West Coast, Imperial, Session, and more. Recently, the Cold IPA has risen to the top and Lakefront Brewery has created Chilly Rabbit.

“Usually, a cold IPA is brewed with lager yeasts at colder temperatures, creating a crisp, drinkable yet generously hopped India Pale Ale,” said Lakefront Brewery Brand Manager, Michael Stodola. “Lakefront’s Chilly Rabbit is brewed with ale yeast, but at near lager temps to help enhance the Cashmere and Idaho 7 hop flavors.”

It utilizes a late-boil addition of Cashmere, and a generous dry-hopping of Idaho 7 to pump its  tangerine, mango, and strawberry character front and center. Malts play a supporting role in a Cold IPA, with a crisp, almost lager-like body solely there to make the hoppy citrus and tropical fruit flavors shine bright. Chilly Rabbit sports an ABV of 6.8% and IBUs of 35.

Chilly Rabbit Cold IPA is available wherever Lakefront Brewery products are sold.

Lakefront Brewery, Inc. distributes its products to over 30 states, Ukraine, and Canada. Lakefront Brewery is the first brewery in Wisconsin and 22nd brewery in the world to be certified as a B Corporation. Lakefront Brewery also produced the first beer in the United States made from 100% in-state-grown ingredients, including a first-of-its-kind, indigenous Wisconsin yeast strain (Wisconsinite Summer Weiss), the first certified organic brewery and the first gluten-free beer granted approval by the U.S. Government (New Grist).
