Hop BroGrandline Brewing in Yokosuka has launched an IBU-200-plus IPA called “Mr. Patriot” for trade sales!
MugiWhat?! Over 200 IBU sounds like it could make my tongue tingle just from the number!
Hop BroIBU is a rough bitterness scale—the bitterness meter, basically. This is their maximum-bitter build yet.
MugiAt 200 IBU, won’t I run into a wall of bitterness halfway through the glass?
Hop BroMore like a hop fortress. It uses Eureka, Mosaic, Cascade, Comet, Lora, plus hop extract in the recipe for real depth.
MugiThat hop list is a five-piece band! Is hop extract basically concentrated hop juice?
Hop BroClose enough as an image. It’s extracted hop material that helps brewers add bitterness precisely, creating a deeper bitter profile rather than harshness alone.
MugiWow! The style is literally Geki-Niga IPA—an unapologetically extra-bitter IPA!
Hop BroIt’s 7.0% ABV. Inspired by a proud patriot leading an army, “Mr. Patriot” sounds like one formidable beer.
MugiIt comes in 15-liter kegs, with stainless and one-way options for bars and retailers. I’d love to spot it at a beer bar!
Hop BroStock is limited, so venues should check early. This Yokosuka-born adventure makes me want to join the bitterness expedition with a toast!
MugiI’m bringing water as backup and giving it a go! Let’s toast with Mr. Patriot together!
Grandline Brewing, based in Yokosuka, Kanagawa, has started wholesale distribution of Mr. Patriot, a new IPA from Yokosuka Brewery. The product is offered for restaurants, bars, and liquor retailers in 15-liter kegs, with both stainless steel and one-way keg options available.
Mr. Patriot is inspired by a proud patriot leading an army. Its defining feature is an IBU exceeding 200, described as the highest bitterness level in Grandline Brewing’s history. The recipe combines several hop varieties with hop extract to create not only intense bitterness but also greater depth and complexity.
The beer is classified as a Geki-Niga IPA, or extremely bitter IPA, with an ABV of 7.0%. The listed hops are Eureka, Mosaic, Cascade, Comet, and Lora. While bitterness forms the backbone of the beer, the combination of hop varieties is intended to add layers of flavor for drinkers who enjoy assertive, hop-forward IPAs.
Sales are handled through Grandline Brewing’s wholesale website. New business partners can apply through the customer registration form on the site. Payment is generally arranged by invoice, closing at the end of the delivery month and payable the following month. Orders should include the product name, quantity, and preferred delivery date and time.
Stock is limited, so businesses interested in serving Mr. Patriot may want to check availability early. Empty kegs are returned to Grandline Brewing in Yokosuka. Opened in October 2023, the brewery presents itself as a place for new beer adventures and works to connect Yokosuka’s craft beer culture with drinkers across Japan and around the world.
