Hop BroAt Chiitoko Shoten in Shimosuwa, Isekadoya Beer's 'Nikukyuu IPA' will be tapped on April 23. It's that slightly indulgent and fun kind of place where you can enjoy dagashi, beer, and coffee all together.
MugiWhat! Dagashi and beer together? Just hearing that makes my brain glitch! But that sounds like it's definitely fun.
Hop BroAnd on this day, it's their monthly Bath Day business hours, with a long opening from 10:00 to 22:00. The draft lineup has four beers: Shonan Gold, Nikukyuu IPA, Kinki Pale Ale, and MUGICHA.
MugiWhat is that! Four Today's Beers means the fun starts at the choosing stage. The name MUGICHA is way too intriguing too!
Hop BroThe star of the show is definitely Nikukyuu IPA. It's Isekadoya Beer's 29th-anniversary beer, designed in the crisp style of a West Coast IPA.
MugiWest Coast IPA... um, what does designed to be crisp even mean? It sounds strong somehow, though!
Hop BroSimply put, it's a style that keeps the sweetness down with a dry finish and brings the hop aroma and bitterness to the front. Here, citrus, tropical fruit, and pine-like aromas spread out, and the firm bitterness is part of the appeal.
MugiOhhh! Citrus and pine aromas sound like eating an orange in the forest, which seems fun. And the name 'Nikukyuu' is cute, but what's inside is totally serious!
Hop BroExactly. Despite the playful name, the flavor is very much a serious IPA. And because it's on draft, the way the aroma opens up is especially clean.
MugiWhen I hear draft beer, it already sounds tasty just from the way the aroma opens up! And if you can get takeout too, that's perfect for enjoying while walking around town.
Hop BroWalking around Shimosuwa and stopping by Chiitoko Shoten for a drink is a really nice flow. Today is just right for a detour during a town walk, and now I want to line up these four beers and compare them too.
MugiYeah, I'm already completely in the mood to drink! I want to head in while debating whether to start with Nikukyuu IPA or settle down first with MUGICHA!
