Hop BroFour WEST COAST BREWING IPAs have arrived at Koguma Saketen near Sendai Station East Exit. From Full Hop Alchemist r7 to Boom Box and Red Light, it’s a lineup with a really fun range of aromas.
MugiWait, you can compare four different beers? With that much variation in one shop, I’d already be lost before I even started choosing!
Hop BroThe first highlight is Full Hop Alchemist r7. It’s a Hazy Double IPA at 8.5% ABV, using Mosaic, Tangie, and Citra Cryo, with a dense profile where ripe orange and pineapple are layered with mango character.
MugiHold on, what even is a Hazy Double IPA? And Citra Cryo sounds like some kind of special attack move!?
Hop BroHazy means it has a cloudy appearance, and Double IPA means both the hop presence and alcohol feel are stronger. Citra Cryo is cryo-processed hop material, so it can concentrate the aroma, which helps the tropical notes come forward.
MugiI see! So Boom Box is more of the juicy type? Pineapple, mango, and all that already make me feel like I’m on a tropical vacation before even drinking it!
Hop BroExactly. Boom Box is a Hazy IPA at 7% ABV. Using Citra, Cascade, and Krush, it delivers pineapple, mango, and lychee, plus citrus, stone fruit, and even a grape-like impression, making its layered fruit character the appeal.
MugiGrape too!? That’s basically the beer world’s fruit basket. And the article says there’s another Boom Box slot too, so are they like twins!?
Hop BroThat’s the interesting part: the other Boom Box is also lined up as the same fruity, juicy style. That’s why doing a compare-the-aromas tasting would probably be a lot of fun at the shop.
MugiI’m curious about Red Light too! CBD-infused and 4.5% ABV sounds relaxing, and herbal plus floral feels so adult and stylish!
Hop BroRed Light includes 100 mg of CBD and terpenes, giving it the dankness and crisp refreshment typical of a West Coast Session IPA. With everything from a rich hazy beer to a lighter one in the lineup, it makes you want to line them up at Koguma and taste them side by side tonight.
MugiYeah, this is definitely an IPA comparison tasting at the east exit! I want to get excited by the aromas first, then finish with Red Light at the end!
