What's in the can
Collider Session IPA: water, malted barley, wheat, hops, yeast and Unwind Blend (L-theanine, lion's mane, ashwagandha). Collider sells it as vegan and gluten-free (gluten removed in brewing). Its product pages give no blend amount per can.

Want a bigger IPA? IMPOSSIBREW Triple Hopped IPA is brewed with three times the hops, mango purée and oats for a creamy body, at 12 kcal per 100ml, a third fewer than Collider Session IPA. It contains lactose and gluten, so it is vegetarian, not vegan.
In our own 2024 customer survey, 72% of 775 responses said they felt somewhat, very or entirely relaxed after drinking IMPOSSIBREW. That is self-reported, not a clinical result.
