50+ Maine breweries brewed the same recipe... Which will be your favorite?
January 21, 2022 to June 30, 2022

When will the MBG Collab IPA be released at your favorite brewery? Find out below*!

ABOUT: The MBG Collaboration IPA v2 involved over 50 Maine brewers working together to build a recipe and brew it using hops and specialty malts donated by suppliers. While those aspects of the recipe remained the same, each brewery chose a different yeast and used their own base malt to brew the beer. The result? An awesome opportunity for you to explore and appreciate the incredible diversity of flavors that can be achieved through different brewing techniques and minimally altered recipes. In celebration of the collaborative spirit of Maine’s brewing community – we hope you’ll get a chance to enjoy the MBG Collaboration IPA v2!

Cheers to all these brewers as well as Crosby Hops, Yakima Chief Hops, Blue Ox Malthouse and Maine Malt House and Amherst Label for their generous donations to support the work of the Guild.
