Landgang Amerikanischer Traum if you want bright citrus punch,
Ratsherrn Küsten-IPA if you want coastal salinity and restraint.
Both clock in at nearly identical specs—6.2% and 6.1% ABV, both 60 IBU—so the difference lives in execution and terroir. Landgang swings for the American hop profile; Ratsherrn feels anchored by its Hamburg roots. Neither overpowers; both reward attention.

Landgang Amerikanischer Traum
Landgang hits you with immediate grapefruit and tangerine zest—the kind of brightness that makes you sit up. There's a clean malt spine underneath that keeps it from tipping into harshness, and the finish snaps off dry without lingering bitterness. This is a beer that tastes like someone understood American IPA craft and then applied German brewing discipline to keep it honest.
Ratsherrn Küsten-IPA
Ratsherrn leans into something more subtle: there's a mineral, almost briny edge that suggests the name isn't just marketing. The hops feel less about extraction and more about suggestion—a whisper of citrus backing up something earthier underneath. It's got a softer mouthfeel than you'd expect at 60 IBU, which makes the bitterness feel integrated rather than imposed.
