Hop BroThe October 28 tap list at The Cat & Cask Tavern in Kanamecho is looking seriously tempting.
MugiWhat? They have a fresh-hop IPA too? I already want to go!
Hop BroThe lineup includes Brimmer Brewing’s Pale Ale, Shiga Kogen IPA, and a Minoh Beer Pilsner.
MugiSo what makes fresh hops different from regular hops? Are they, like, extra fresh?
Hop BroThey’re often used soon after harvest, so they can bring a vivid green aroma unlike dried hops. Like diving into a meadow—though please don’t actually dive.
MugiA meadow-diving IPA?! That sounds amazing! A seasonal hop character means this is the moment to drink it.
Hop BroAnd don’t miss Minoh’s Osaru IPA real ale, poured with a hand pump for a completely different expression.
MugiA hand pump? Is that beer gym equipment? And what exactly is real ale?
Hop BroIt’s beer that continues naturally conditioning in the cask, with a gentle, softer texture instead of forceful carbonation. Perfect for a slow chat.
MugiAn English-style house pub with pilsner and real ale? That sounds like the perfect quiet night.
Hop BroThey’re open Wednesday through Saturday, 6–10 p.m., with last beer orders at 9:30. Remember: up to four guests and cash-on-delivery.
MugiI’m starting with the Shiga Kogen IPA aroma and ending on Osaru IPA. Just imagining tonight’s first pint is making me thirsty!
