Hop BroGROUNDTAP BREWERY in Saijo, Ehime, is releasing KANZASHI in collaboration with BRANCH COFFEE. It's the kind of beer that catches the eye of both coffee lovers and beer lovers.
MugiWait, coffee and beer!? Wouldn't mixing those turn into a mess? Even the name Coffee Dark Lager sounds intense!
Hop BroThe style is Coffee Dark Lager, and the ABV is 5.0%. It uses coffee beans, but the point is that it's not just bitter - the lager's crispness brings everything together.
MugiLager crispness? What does that even mean? That sounds way too pro all of a sudden - what does lager-like even feel like?
Hop BroPut simply, it means it doesn't linger heavily after you drink it. KANZASHI has a coffee-derived clean, light finish, so the idea is that you can drink it almost like iced coffee.
MugiOhhh! So even if it looks like a dark beer, you can actually drink it pretty easily. And the aroma is like prunes too - that's kind of stylish!
Hop BroExactly. The coffee aroma is layered with the malt's sweetness and richness, and it has a substantial mouthfeel, but it still finishes cleanly in true lager fashion.
MugiThat's the best! And it's available at PREP ROOM from 4/30 (Thu) and at TAP ROOM from 5/2 (Sat) too, right? My plans just got set!
Hop BroYep, it's also available on the ONLINE SHOP and the wholesale EC site. The wholesale side offers 350ml cans and 15L kegs, so it should spread pretty widely.
MugiA beer made with Saijo's Uchinuki water plus coffee sounds too wonderful... It feels like you can drink the character of the place itself, and that's kind of moving!
Hop BroRight? It feels like a careful, well-made beer that's so GROUNDTAP BREWERY, and I already want to drink it now. Mugi-chan, let's toast with KANZASHI instead of coffee today.
