Hop BroAkihabara's new guest beer tap opening is hot right now. At Craft Beer Scissors Akihabara, three Teenage Brewing IPAs all went on tap at once.
MugiWhoa, three!? Just three Teenage Brewing labels is enough to get me excited.
Hop BroAnd the lineup is great. Fuzz Face is an imperial IPA with berry and white grape-like notes, aiming for both sweet aroma and drinkability.
MugiImperial IPA sounds strong! So it's an IPA with real heft?
Hop BroExactly. Roughly speaking, it's a style that really brings out the ABV and hop character. Sound Clash is a West Coast IPA, with grapefruit, piney notes, and a crisp bitterness as the key points.
MugiWow, just hearing citrus and pine aromas makes me want to drink it! That crisp bitterness is the beer's 'bam' factor, right?
Hop BroThat's right. And Mustang is attractive for its citrus and stone-fruit notes from NZ hops, so it seems floral but still easy to drink.
MugiNZ hops are like the stylish representative of the Southern Hemisphere! Citrus & stone fruit is basically a fruit shop.
Hop BroWhat's more, the 26/3/22 Tap List is strong too. It has Vita Amara, BANK IPA, Tohoku Damashii IPL, and Mugicha Bitter, so both IPA fans and curveball seekers will be torn.
MugiThat lineup in Akihabara is unfair! It's such a night made for a tasting crawl that we basically have to go today.
