Hop BroA guest beer from Primary Barrels has arrived at Awa Store in Noborimachi, Hiroshima. This time's star is "Untitled / Untitled," a 6% ABV IPA, so that's the first thing that catches your eye, right?
MugiHuh? A title called Untitled is already confusing! But what kind of brewery is Primary Barrels?
Hop BroIt's a microbrewery that uses a former school in Fukuchiyama, deep in Kyoto, and it's brewed by farmers. What makes it interesting is that you can also taste the background of the place itself.
MugiWait, beer in a former school!? That's already dramatic...! But an American IPA is the kind that's supposed to hit you hard with bitterness, right?
Hop BroThis one isn't just about bitterness. It's the kind that opens up softly with citrus and peach aromas. There's also a white-grape-like nuance, and the layers of aroma stack together beautifully.
MugiWow! Peach and white grape? It's practically a fruit stand! But when you say "citrus aroma," it sounds a little technical, and that makes me nervous!
Hop BroAroma just means fragrance. And the finish is a clean malt base, so the foundation is crisp and the hop aroma comes through clearly.
MugiI see, so the aroma stands out because it has that support underneath! Then with such a light drinking feel, even IPA beginners could handle it, right?
Hop BroExactly. It doesn't just lean on flashiness; it also balances drinkability, so it's an approachable beer for both IPA fans and people who like fruitier profiles.
MugiAnd Awa Store isn't just a place to drink on-site, right? You can enjoy it in a kakuuchi-style setup too? That's already the perfect excuse to make a detour!
Hop BroExactly. There's also a link to the online shop, but it says to watch out for sellouts, so checking early is safest. At this point, it makes you want to grab a drink together tonight.
MugiYeah, now I definitely want to drink it! Let's go taste Untitled / Untitled and solve the mystery of the name too!
