HOP STAND Sannomiya, a beer pub in Kobe’s Sannomiya district, has tapped Rokko Beer’s Misty Session DDH IPA. The post describes it as a summer seasonal release and highlights it as a fresh arrival from a local Kobe brewery.

Misty Session DDH IPA is defined by its 3.9% ABV and its easy-drinking body. Even with the light alcohol strength, the beer is built around a pronounced hop aroma with citrus and tropical notes. It reads like a session IPA with extra aromatic punch, offering a balance of approachability and hop-forward character.

HOP STAND Sannomiya sits on Kitanagasadori in central Kobe and operates as a beer pub with yakitori at the core of its food lineup. That makes a beer like this especially fitting: a lively, aromatic tap beer that can be paired with skewers, simple pub dishes, or a quick stop for a single glass after work.

The headline beer here is Rokko Beer’s Misty Session DDH IPA, now available on draft. For hop lovers, it is the kind of seasonal pour worth checking while it is on.
