Hop BroCanal brewing in Oimachi just got LOVE CRACTION in. It's a canned collab from Uchu Brewing and BUDDICA DONUTS, and this one is hard to ignore.
MugiWhat! That name is intense! A beer with donuts already sounds like dessert trying to sneak into happy hour.
Hop BroThe style is SMOOTHIE SOUR ALE. It's packed with strawberry and raspberry puree, so the fruit really leads the whole sip.
MugiHold on, what is smoothie sour? That sounds like breakfast and bar time crashed into each other!
Hop BroIt basically means fruit-packed sour beer. You still get tartness, but the texture feels smoother, and it sounds perfect with BUDDICA's chocolate or glazed donuts.
MugiOoooh, sweet pairing alert. And it wasn't just the can, right? Their tap list looked stacked too.
Hop BroExactly, the nine-tap lineup is the other headline. They've got Canal brewing's own C IPA, shoreline Hazy IPA, 4 O'Clock Let's Call it a Day Brut IPA, yuzu pils, and EIGHTY EIGHT, a saison with green tea.
MugiThat is a jargon speedrun! Hazy, Brut, Nitro... are we ordering beer or casting spells?
Hop BroIn plain terms, it's all about mouthfeel. Hazy is juicy and cloudy, Brut is dry and crisp, and the Nitro version of BITTER BUG gets creamy foam. Then Nektar, COFFEE STOUT, and LIME CRIME cover sour, roasty, and seltzer territory too.
Hop BroAnd Canal brewing is an easy-stop brewery bar near Oimachi Station, so you can choose from cans or taps without making it a big trip. I already want to start with LOVE CRACTION.
MugiSame, I want a glass now! Let's open with LOVE CRACTION, then stand in front of those nine taps and pretend this is a very serious strategy meeting.
LOVE CRACTION joins a nine-beer tap list
Canal brewing, a brewery and craft beer specialty shop in Oimachi, Tokyo, announced a new canned beer on its July 23 post: `LOVE CRACTION`, a SMOOTHIE SOUR ALE from Uchu Brewing x BUDDICA DONUTS. The beer is described as a sour ale made with plenty of strawberry and raspberry puree, and it is presented as a drink that pairs especially well with chocolate or glazed donuts.
The shop also updated its `Today's Tap List`. The lineup includes Canal brewing's own `C` (IPA), `shoreline` (Hazy IPA), `4 O'Clock Let's Call it a Day` (Brut IPA), `ゆずピルス` (GERMAN PILSNER with YUZU ZEST), `EIGHTY EIGHT` (SAISON w/GREEN TEA), and `Nektar - Berry & Pear-` (Fruits Sour Ale). Rounding out the board are `BITTER BUG -Nitro Ver-` (Best Bitter), `COFFEE STOUT`, and `LIME CRIME`, giving guests a broad spread of styles in one visit.
Canal brewing is located at 1-26-4 Oi, Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo, a short walk from Oimachi Station. The shop says its beers are selected by an owner who drinks more than 2,000 different craft beers each year, which helps explain the range on the board. For drinkers who want to move from a can release to a fresh draft pour, the current selection offers plenty to choose from.
