Hop BroOmishima Brewery is setting up at FC Imabari's home match on May 31. Being able to drink beer at the stadium is a pretty exciting development.
MugiWait, you can drink beer while watching the match!? And it's stadium gourmet too? That's basically a festival already!
Hop BroExactly. This time they're serving draft beer for 700 yen, plus a small-size draft beer too. Since you usually have to go all the way to Omishima to drink it, the point is that you can drink it in Imabari.
MugiHuh! But what is an exclusive Choi-Guru ticket? Is that some kind of spell?
Hop BroBasically, it's a ticket for food at the venue. The small size can be enjoyed with that dedicated ticket, so it's easy to have a light drink while watching the match.
MugiI see! And they even have pork jowl bacon? That's amazing! Meat and beer is basically a guaranteed win, right!?
Hop BroIt has a rich, fatty sweetness, so it pairs well with the bitterness and aroma of beer. Omishima Brewery's regular lineup also includes Blonde Ale and IPA, so it's the kind of menu that makes you want to compare them all.
MugiI hear IPA a lot, but does that mean it's a strong bitter style? The name alone sounds intense!
Hop BroYeah, broadly speaking, it's a style where you enjoy the hop aroma and bitterness. When that gets layered with citrusy fruitiness, it really brings out Omishima's character.
MugiDrinking Omishima beer at the stadium, biting into pork jowl bacon, and cheering on the team too? That's perfect! Watching the match becomes a feast!
Hop BroExactly. Today both the beer and the food are headline attractions, so I want to start with a draft beer for the first drink and then go for another one at the end.
