Free Spirits Brewing Taps a New Beer Made with British Malt and Hops
Free Spirits Brewing in Himeji, Hyogo Prefecture, announced on Instagram that it has started serving a new beer. The post said it would be tapped at the store starting today, and revealed that British ingredients were used for the malt and hops.
Hop BroSo here's the deal: Himeji's Free Spirits Brewing just tapped a new beer on Instagram. And this time, both the malt and hops use British ingredients.
MugiWait, British malt and hops? That suddenly gives it a very gentlemanly beer vibe! But I can't imagine what it would taste like at all.
Hop BroThat's the interesting part. British ingredients tend to bring out a malty richness and a more settled aroma, so instead of being flashy, they often end up with a beer that has real backbone.
MugiMalty, huh? You mean it tastes more strongly like barley? That sounds kind of scary, like the backbone of beer!
Hop BroBasically, yes. The sweetness and depth of the malt form the base, and they support the bitterness and aroma of the hops. That's the work of building the flavor foundation.
MugiOhh, I get it! So Free Spirits Brewing isn't just making another new beer, it's the kind of brewery that plays around with ingredient choices!
Hop BroExactly. Their official site says they focus on American IPAs and also make yuzu fruit beer, so their strength is in flexible, creative design.
MugiThey even make yuzu beer? And the name Free Spirits meaning "carefree" is such a perfect fit!
Hop BroAnd since they also have a restaurant and beer garden on site, it's great that you can drink in a place where you're close to the brewer. You'll probably get a clearer sense of the beer's personality.
MugiWow, now I really want to go drink there! If you're following craft beer in Himeji, this new British-ingredient beer is absolutely one to check out!
Hop BroExactly. At this point, it's less about explaining and more about actually tasting it. This is the kind of new release that makes you want to say, one beer in Himeji sounds like the move.
