MugiWait, so they split lunch and dinner hours? 11:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. last order is way too kind to lunch people!
Hop BroDinner runs from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. last order, so it really has that beer-pub feel that makes it easy to stop by for food or just for a drink.
MugiEven the name Sirenphobia sounds intense! What is a hazy DIPA supposed to be, anyway?
Hop BroNot fluffy exactly, but more like a richer, denser IPA with haze, and in this case the key is the smoothness from the oats and cream.
MugiCreamy from oats!? Citrus and green apple? That sounds like a fruit shop!
Hop BroRakau, Idaho 7, and Citra really shine here, and the clever part is how it keeps the aroma bright while finishing not too sweet.
MugiSo it’s easy to drink but still has a strong personality? Hearing that it has dankness makes it sound a little scary, but I’m curious!
Hop BroNothing scary about it. It just means that green, hoppy, slightly earthy character that makes beer lovers grin at the dank finish.
MugiAnd they’ve got tuna-and-chicken biryani plus lunch-only mazesoba too? Amazing! Biryani and a pint might be today’s best answer after all!
