MugiWhoa! Is that the one called Kurape Type S? The name already sounds intense!
Hop BroExactly. It's a pale ale. Compared with the regular Kurape, it's crafted to be crisper and more drinkable.
MugiCrisper and more drinkable? What does that even mean? The beer is suddenly acting like a karate master!
Hop BroFor example, it still has a soft hop aroma, but the bitterness and heaviness are kept in check, so it comes in smoothly.
MugiOhhh! So it's the kind of clean, refreshing finish that's perfect as a first drink.
Hop BroThat's right. The amber-colored beer in the glass looks beautiful too, so it lifts your mood from the first glance.
MugiAnd it has brewing equipment inside the shop, so it's a brewpub, right? That fresh-brewed feel is unfair!
Hop BroExactly. It's also easy to pair with food, and being able to stop by casually in the Tanga Market area is another great point.
MugiI have to go! While drinking NEW BEER from Kokura Brewing, I want to make today's side dish your hop commentary!
