Hop BroToday's headline is Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand, a brewpub near Komagome Station with 10 taps on August 7, including the new Saburo Hazy.
MugiWait, Saburo Hazy sounds like somebody's cool uncle! Why does this beer already feel like family?
Hop BroThat one is a Hazy IPA built around Sabro hops, with coconut and stone-fruit aromas, a soft mouthfeel, and restrained sweetness.
MugiHold on, Sabro hops are a real thing? That sounds like a finishing move!
Hop BroReal thing, yeah. In plain terms, they push tropical-style aromatics, so you get peachy, coconut-like impressions instead of sharp bitterness first.
MugiOkay, so it's basically vacation in a glass. And restrained sweetness means hazy does not have to feel heavy, right?
Hop BroExactly, and the fun part is the wide 10-tap spread: Little Thing as a Dry Hopped Session Ale, Ryusui Soso #2 as an Italian Pilsner, Pineapple Gose, Komagome Best Bitter, and Kurodori #4.
MugiWhat is this lineup? Gose and stout showing up together feels like opposite students getting seated side by side!
Hop BroPerfect comparison. Gose brings saline tartness, stout brings roast, so the flavor vectors are completely different, which makes a tasting flight fun.
MugiThen where does a beginner start? The mini-glass strategy is starting to sound very serious to me.
Hop BroThat is the smart move. I would go session ale first, then pilsner, IPA, gose, bitter, and stout, and honestly I want that exact run tonight.
MugiThis is dangerous. I want to go to Komagome now, sample the whole board, and finish with Saburo Hazy grinning like an idiot.
