Announcement

In the post from Ushitora Ichi-go-ten, the shop says work is underway on a commemorative beer for the 6th anniversary of Ushitora STAND in Shibuya. The chosen beer is a Hazy IPA. To match the anniversary theme, the recipe uses six different hop varieties, and the brewery says it is aiming for a slightly cleaner finish than the style it usually makes.

About the shop

Ushitora Ichi-go-ten is a beer pub in Daita, Setagaya-ku, Tokyo, and it serves as a familiar stop for craft beer fans in the Shimokitazawa area. It is also a place where drinkers can follow the activities of Ushitora Brewery, making it a useful base for anyone tracking the brewery's releases and events.

What stands out

The key point here is that the anniversary beer is a Hazy IPA built around multiple hop varieties. That should make aroma, texture, and finish especially interesting. The post also mentions a Saturday, August 1 launch, so beer fans will likely want to watch for the next update.
