Here’s the big topic today: Beer Cafe VERTERE in Okutama is doing a taproom-only release. Their core DIPA “Magnolia” is getting a boosted version called “MMMagnolia,” pouring from Friday, August 28!
Mugi
Wait, the name is screaming at me! Three M’s? That sounds like the hops already did a warm-up lap.
Hop Bro
Exactly. MMMagnolia is based on Magnolia, but it uses more than double hops, so the aroma and flavor come out way more boldly in this DIPA.
Mugi
I get DIPA, but flavor comes out boldly? What does that even mean? Did the beer put on stage makeup?
Hop Bro
Pretty much, yeah. It means the hop aroma and bitterness get turned up so the character feels clearer. Think of it as aroma volume up on Magnolia.
Mugi
Ohhh, so this is one of those comparison flight moments. Same name, but one sibling clearly never skipped the gym?
Hop Bro
That’s actually a decent analogy. And on the same day, the regular Magnolia is also pouring, so you can do a two-DIPA side by side and really catch the hop differences.
Mugi
Hold on, hop differences? You slipped into poet mode again. Can a beginner actually notice that?
Hop Bro
For sure. Magnolia should feel more balanced, while MMMagnolia pushes the aroma harder, so even first-timers can spot it. Plus visitors get an original handheld fan, which is a nice bonus.
Mugi
That’s perfect: drink, cool off, repeat. Now I seriously want a Magnolia tasting showdown at VERTERE’s taproom on August 28!
Beercafe VERTERE will serve a taproom-only release called MMMagnolia, a limited version of its regular DIPA Magnolia brewed with more than twice the hops. The beer goes on tap on Friday, August 28, and will be available until sold out.
The release is designed as a comparison beer: the brewery says visitors can enjoy the differences in aroma and flavor between MMMagnolia and the regular Magnolia. That makes the taproom visit more than a simple one-off pour; it becomes a side-by-side look at how the same house beer can shift when hop intensity is pushed further.
Magnolia itself will also be on tap that day. Based in Okutama, Tokyo, Beercafe VERTERE is known for hop-forward beers and limited releases, and MMMagnolia fits neatly into that approach. The taproom will also hand out original fans to visitors while supplies last.
