Hop BroThe tap update at the Iidabashi beer pub Hop-Scotch Tokyo is here. This time, Georgetown Brewing's Lucille and Bellwoods Brewery's Jelly King have been tapped.
MugiWhoa! Lucille and Jelly King already sound strong just from the names alone! But what kind of beers are they?
Hop BroLucille is a citrusy IPA with a strong hop aroma. It's the kind that makes your nose happy before you even take a sip.
MugiYour nose gets happy first? What does that even mean! Is hop aroma really that easy to notice?
Hop BroIt is. For example, IPA can be fun because of its aromatic presence—notes like grapefruit or pine are easy to pick up.
MugiI see! Then what kind of beer is Jelly King? It said it was Bellwoods' popular series. Is it sweet?
Hop BroThe name is cute, but it's actually a signature staple with character. Stylistically, it's in the direction of acidity and fruitiness, and when you line it up next to Lucille's IPA, the contrast comes through nicely.
MugiWait, they're that different even at the same place! So this is what they mean by the fun of comparing beers.
Hop BroExactly. Hop-Scotch Tokyo has a fast-changing draft lineup, so it's fun to follow the two beers they have right now. Before you know it, the lineup can look different the next day.
MugiThen I have to keep going back! It sounds perfect for a post-work drink, and being easy to walk to from the station is a big help too.
Hop BroThen tonight, let's start with Lucille to enjoy the hop aroma, and then check the difference in flavor with Jelly King.
MugiYeah, exactly! If it's two beers on tap right now, there's no reason not to drink them. This definitely makes me want to go!
