Poppels West Coast India Pale Ale

Poppels Bryggeri is a highly regarded Swedish craft brewery that has made a significant impact on the Scandinavian beer scene. Founded in 2012 in Jonsered, near Gothenburg, the brand was established by a group of beer enthusiasts led by Magnus Pettersson. The name 'Poppels' pays homage to Johan Caspar Poppelman, a traditional brewer from the 17th century, linking modern craft techniques with historical brewing roots.

The West Coast IPA featured is one of their flagship products, known for its balanced bitterness and citrusy hop profile typical of the American West Coast style. Poppels remains an independent craft brewery, producing its beverages in Sweden at its state-of-the-art facility in Jonsered. The company has focused on organic production and has grown to become one of the largest independent breweries in Sweden, maintaining a strong local identity while exporting to several international markets.
