Hop BroKawasaki's TK Brewing has urgently released Tenderness IPA. Bringing back a sold-out staple right away really shows how seriously they take things.
MugiWhat? An urgent release? Is it really that popular!? A restock after selling out sounds like nothing but a scramble to get one!
Hop BroAnd the beer itself is solid too. It's a proper West Coast IPA style, with American IPA, ABV 7.0%, and IBU 93, so it's built to go in hard.
MugiIBU 93, what even is that!? Does a bigger number mean stronger!? Calling it a bitterness indicator makes it feel like a surprise test all of a sudden!
Hop BroBasically, the higher the number, the stronger the bitterness. So this is a properly bitter IPA, but what's interesting is that it's not just bitter for the sake of it, it's also aiming for aroma.
MugiOhhh! What hops are they using? Hearing Mosaic as the center of the recipe already makes it sound like the aroma is going to be incredible!
Hop BroThat's the key point: they combine Mosaic with Ekuanot and Idaho 7. They're aiming for a balance of bitterness and aroma, so you can expect citrus and tropical notes along with a sharp, defined bitterness.
MugiWhat is that, it sounds like the names of fancy fruits! It feels like a triple-hop trio, like it's already dancing in the air before you even drink it!
Hop BroTK Brewing is a community-based brewery in Kawasaki, founded in 2017. And because their direct sales shop lets you enjoy it fresh, freshness itself becomes part of the flavor.
MugiIt's nice that it's grown locally and can be drunk right away. That sense of presence as a new staple even makes it feel dependable!
Hop BroWith this return, we get to enjoy TK Brewing's signature hop aroma and bitterness again. This definitely makes you want to grab a glass at the direct sales shop.
MugiYeah, I already want to drink it! If I toast with Tenderness IPA, I think today's fatigue would just disappear!
TK Brewing announced on Instagram that it will urgently re-release its flagship IPA, 'Tenderness IPA.' The post said it would be "urgently released starting today," marking its return after it had already gone out of stock.
'Tenderness IPA' is positioned by the brewery as a classic West Coast-style IPA. According to the Instagram post, the beer style is American IPA, the alcohol content is 7.0%, and the IBU is 93. The hop bill centers on Mosaic, with Ekuanot and Idaho 7 added to balance bitterness and aroma.
TK Brewing is a community-focused brewery founded in 2017 in Kawasaki City, Kanagawa Prefecture. On its official website, 'Tenderness IPA' is introduced as a new standard that gently wraps bitterness and aroma together, and it is treated as one of the most prominent beers in the brewery's IPA lineup. As a Kawasaki brewery, another notable feature is its direct sales shop, where beer can be enjoyed in a fresh state.
In this post, the brewery also hinted at resuming other IPAs that had been temporarily removed, suggesting that the lineup at the direct sales shop is changing. With this return of a core beer, it looks like fans can once again enjoy TK Brewing's signature hop aroma and firm bitterness.
