Hop BroI’ve got a good one today: HEAVY SASORI BREWING in Naha is pouring new NIOH’s Garden.
MugiWait, that name sounds fierce and gentle at once. Too much contrast for one beer!
Hop BroIt’s an Okinawan Pale Ale, 6.5% ABV, available on June 23 from 5:00 p.m. to midnight at the Makishi taproom.
MugiOoh, but what makes it Okinawan? Is it basically a local pale ale?
Hop BroPretty much, but with local character layered in. This one uses shell ginger leaves, lemongrass, and guava leaves for herbal depth on top of bright citrus.
MugiWhat is that, beer or a garden lunch? And with all those malts and hops, that’s a full pint of data!
Hop BroThat’s the fun part. Extra Pale Premium Pilsner, Wheat Malt, Munich I, plus Hallertau Blanc, Motueka, Saaz, and Voss Kveik build layers of aroma.
MugiHold on, Voss Kveik sounds like a wizard spell. Did you just cast fermentation on me?
Hop BroIt’s the yeast. Yeast shapes aroma and mouthfeel, and here it works like the flavor organizer, tying soft sweetness and citrus together.
MugiOh wow, and it even connects to memories of a grandparents’ garden? That’s basically drinkable scenery.
Hop BroExactly. A Naha local brewery turning place and memory into beer, then serving it fresh on site, makes this a pint worth chasing.
MugiI’m fully sold now. Food last order is 11:00 p.m. and drinks are 11:30, so this is a beer I need in my hand.
