Mizonokuchi Brewery releases "TAKATSU ENTRY," a three-bottle starter set for its DDH Hazy IPA
Mizonokuchi Brewery in Kawasaki, Kanagawa, has made available in its online store "TAKATSU ENTRY - DDH Hazy IPA - 3 Bottle Set," a more approachable entry version of a special DDH Hazy IPA brewed with local customers for its third anniversary. The product is billed as the first drink to kick off enjoying the Takatsu area.
Hop BroToday's spotlight is Mizonokuchi Brewery's TAKATSU ENTRY. They took the special DDH Hazy IPA from their third anniversary and turned it into a much easier-to-drink starter version, then released it as a 3-bottle set.
MugiWait, an entry version that's still hazy? That's already a lot to take in! And a 3-bottle set? That's basically saying, "I'm here to drink from the start," isn't it?
Hop BroThat's the good part. It's billed as the first drink to begin enjoying the Takatsu area, and they reworked the special beer brewed with local customers into something easier to try first.
MugiDDH again! Double dry hopping sounds like the hops are running wild just from the name, but what's actually happening?
Hop BroSimply put, it's a technique where hops are added again after fermentation to really lift the aroma. So the goal with this beer is a deep hop aroma without the bitterness taking over.
MugiSo it's not just about bitterness, it's about enjoying the aroma too! And with ABV 6.0%, it might be perfect for a day when you want something a little indulgent.
Hop BroThe hop bill is pretty ambitious too. They layer Mosaic-CRYO and friends with Citra, Amarillo, Strata, and Idaho 7 to build the tropical character and depth you want in a hazy.
MugiWhoa, the hop names sound like a party! When you say layers of aroma, it sounds complicated, but basically it means it's delicious over and over again, right?
Hop BroExactly, that's good enough. Mizonokuchi Brewery is rooted in the local community, with a commitment to growing the Mizonokuchi scene, so that local character really comes through in this beer too.
MugiI kind of love that beer isn't just a drink here, but something packed with a connection to the local community. And the artwork is by Takeshi Wada, so the look is interesting too!
Hop BroAnd because it's a 3-bottle set, you can enjoy the full flow: check the aroma with the first bottle, take your time with the second, and end with the third going, "Wow, that's good."
MugiThat's the perfect route! All I can think is I want to drink it now, and it makes me want to toast to the entrance to the Takatsu area!
