At the beer pub "Craft Beer House Rash Life" in Sakurashinmachi, Setagaya, Tokyo, two new taps debuted on Monday, March 30.

Hop BroAt "Craft Beer House Rash Life" in Sakurashinmachi, two new taps came in on March 30. The lineup of Oni Densetsu's Kin-oni Pale Ale and Burdock Brewery Ducks IPA is seriously exciting.
MugiWhoa, so both are distinctive? And Kin-oni sounds powerful just from the name, and Ducks IPA is IPA even though it's ducks? That makes me curious!
Hop BroKin-oni Pale Ale is part of the series from Noboribetsu Beer in Hokkaido, and this time it's a single-hop version of Krush. Citrus, stone fruit, and tropical notes stand out, with a clean bitterness that makes it easy to drink.
MugiSingle-hop version means just one hop variety, right? It suddenly feels like a science experiment, but if Hop Brother explains it, I feel like I can drink it!
Hop BroExactly, it's the kind that shows off one hop without mixing in others. That makes the aroma's outline easier to see, so you can enjoy the hop character as is.
MugiThen what about Ducks IPA? It says DDH American IPA, but the alphabet soup is intense!
Hop BroDDH stands for double dry hop, a method where a generous amount of hops is added even after fermentation. Ducks IPA is known for its juicy fruitiness, with tangerine-like citrus layered with melon-like freshness.
MugiOhhh! And the bitterness isn't too strong, so that's the smooth mouthfeel kind of beer. It sounds dangerously easy to keep drinking!
Hop BroExactly. Rash Life is a place that carries the banner All you need is Beer!, so this kind of pair with a sharp contrast in aroma is a perfect fit.
MugiThis pairing in Sakurashinmachi is unfair! If it's fun to compare side by side, I can already see myself going from one drink after work to two or three!
Hop BroIn the end, the right move is to enjoy Kin-oni for its citrus snap, then sink into the juiciness of Ducks IPA. Today makes me want to go out and fully enjoy the character of the taps.
MugiYeah, I'm completely in the mood for more than one drink today! In Sakurashinmachi, Kin-oni into Ducks IPA is making me want to bar-hop!
