MugiWait, tomato!? Tomatoes in beer? Is it basically food now? Does it just look like a drink?
Hop BroThat's the interesting part: the style is saison. It uses fully ripened tomatoes harvested on Osaki-Kamijima in Hiroshima, bringing out its character right from the aroma.
MugiI hear the word saison a lot, but what exactly is saison yeast? Even the name sounds way too stylish.
Hop BroIn simple terms, it's a yeast that tends to bring out a spicy character during fermentation. So after the bright tomato aroma, a sharp edge comes through.
MugiOhhh! And it said there was a smoky finish too, right? Even though it's tomato, it kind of has a campfire-meal vibe!
Hop BroExactly. What I like is that the flow of flavors is clearly designed. First comes the refreshing aroma, then spice, and finally a smoky close, so it feels like the scenery changes within a single glass.
MugiWhoa, the flavor progression is busy! Even though tomato is the star, it's amazing that it still comes together properly as beer.
Hop BroA beer pub like San.publichouse is where you get the real thrill of guest beers. It's fun to find a glass that steps a little outside the usual styles in Yoyogi-Uehara.
MugiAnd in a calm neighborhood, being able to slowly enjoy the expression in each glass sounds perfect. I'd definitely want to drink this slowly!
Hop BroThen today's choice is already made. I want to drink it right now, and Mugi-chan would probably have her eyes go wide after one sip too.
