West Coast Brewing's "The Collective" Arrives at Main Mart Chigasaki Tokiwacho Store
Main Mart Chigasaki Tokiwacho Store in Tsujido, Chigasaki City, is announcing the arrival of West Coast Brewing's new beer, "The Collective." The post introduces the contents of this sour DIPA made with berry puree and roasted macadamia nuts, and you can also see cans lined up in front of the liquor shelves inside the store.
Hop BroThe Collective has arrived at Main Mart Chigasaki Tokiwacho Store in Chigasaki. It's West Coast Brewing's first revived release, and even in the store photo the cans are lined up so neatly that it already makes you want to drink one the moment you see it.
MugiWait, what do you mean by the first revived release? So it's not a new beer, but something that came out before and is being brought back?
Hop BroExactly. This time it's a bottle, or rather a can, that brings back the origin of the series. And at 510ml and 8.0%, it definitely has some presence.
MugiWhoa, strong! But a Sour DIPA? Isn't that an IPA that's sour? Now I'm confused!
Hop BroIt's a style that layers sour tartness onto IPA hop character. And with Raw Wheat, Malted Oats, Milk Sugar, and Honey in there, it builds a fuller mouthfeel.
MugiWhat is that, a plush mouthfeel? So it's not just sour, it also has a gentle sweetness?
Hop BroExactly. With three berry purees, raspberry, blueberry, and blackberry, plus roasted macadamia nuts and nutmeg, the berry tartness is layered with a toasty aroma.
MugiWait, nuts and nutmeg too? It sounds like dessert, but it's still somehow beer, which is so strange!
Hop BroAnd the caption even brings up Nemesis, Arch-Nemesis, and Hopbreaker, so you can feel the series' narrative of darkness. I like how a shop nestled in Chigasaki's residential area delivers that whole context along with the beer.
MugiNow I can't help being interested! I'll make it a candidate for tonight's drink, and if I see the cans in front of the shelves in Chigasaki, I'm sure I'll reach for one right away. Now I want to drink it too!
