At the beer pub BINGE in Meieki, Nagoya, DOUBLE VISION BREWING from New Zealand has a new arrival: The Embalmer (West Coast IPA / ABV 7.2%). The day’s taps also feature a diverse lineup including Taiwanese and domestic breweries, making it a setup where you can enjoy side-by-side tastings centered on West Coast-style beers.
Hop BroAt BINGE in Meieki, the buzz is about NZ’s new face, The Embalmer, as a new arrival. Today’s tap lineup is seriously hot!
MugiWhoa! That name is intense, like a mummy maker. It’s kind of scary, but I’m curious!
Hop BroIt’s brewed by DOUBLE VISION BREWING, the style is West Coast IPA, and the ABV is a solid 7.2%.
MugiHuh! What does dank mean in the description? Like a damp basement or something!?
Hop BroGood question. Dank refers to a heavy, resinous hop character, with a pine-like bitter finish that lingers for a long time.
MugiNo way! So that means it’s the opposite of the juicy styles people talk about lately, a crispness-first type!
Hop BroExactly. It has grapefruit and tropical notes, but it doesn’t push sweetness; it’s a classic-leaning design with a sharply defined IPA profile.
MugiAnd the taps for the day even have shiso, plum, and peach? That’s an insane range!
Hop BroThere’s TAIHU’s SHISO SALTY PLUM, NOM’s PUNKY DUCK, and TALL BOYS’ KRUSHER too, so starting with The Embalmer and then pairing it with a pilsner later is pretty practical.
MugiIf it’s on the 6th floor of Kohaku Building in Meieki, it’s easy to get to, and tonight’s first drink is decided! Hop bro, let’s meet at BINGE tonight!
