craft beer HOP CROWD lists NEKO BEER's 'Otsumiru 2026ver.' and eight beers
On July 7, craft beer HOP CROWD in Yokkaichi, Mie, shared its current tap list. The update features NEKO BEER's new 'Otsumiru 2026ver.' alongside a wide mix of domestic and international beers, plus notes on a July 11 event and a temporary closure on July 21.
Hop BroYokkaichi's craft beer HOP CROWD has a seriously stacked tap list right now. NEKO BEER's 'Otsumiru 2026ver.' is leading a lineup of eight beers.
MugiWhat! Eight beers on tap is exactly how I end up staring at the menu forever! And 'Otsumiru 2026ver.' already sounds weirdly adorable.
Hop BroAnd that one is a DDH Oat Cream Hazy IPA. It's the kind of style built for big hop aroma with a soft, silky body from the oats.
MugiWait, what is DDH!? You can't just throw brewer code words at me like I'm supposed to nod wisely!
Hop BroDDH means extra dry-hop additions. It's a way to boost aroma, while 'hazy' means juicy and cloudy, and 'oat cream' points to a smoother mouthfeel.
MugiOhhh, juicy and cloudy makes it sound like dessert accidentally became beer! Cute name, but clearly not messing around.
Hop BroExactly, and the best part is the huge style range. You've got Flora Fermentation's 'Apollo,' Oni Densetsu's 'Kaneoni Pale Ale Luminosa ver.,' and Faction's 'Terpsman IPA' all in one lineup.
MugiNo way, there's even an apple beer in there? Nat.Brew's 'Gravity Apple' sounds like a summer trap in the best possible way.
Hop BroAnd they also cover brown ale to stout. Ise Kadoya Beer's 'Brown Ale' and Farmentry's 'Imperial Stout' give you everything from easy pairing to slow sipping.
MugiPlus there's a July 11 event too, right? 'Shinfan-chan's the 6 dish' at 1:00 p.m. is the kind of detail that makes me open my calendar immediately.
Hop BroJust avoid the July 21 closure. With Tuesday to Saturday running 4:00 p.m. to midnight and Sunday from 1:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., it's an easy stop when you're in the mood.
MugiThat's it, I want a pour now. Start me with Otsumiru 2026ver., then let me finish dramatically with the imperial stout.
