Hop BroA very good keg just went on in Osaka. At Beer House Hobbit in Hirakata, Ushitora Brewery has tapped “Double Furin”.
MugiWhat! The name sounds breezy, but the style is American Double IPA? That escalated fast!
Hop BroThat contrast is the fun part. It’s 8.0% ABV, but at IBU 41, the bitterness stays moderate, so it still drinks smoothly.
MugiHold on, IBU 41 sounds like a test score. My tongue needs a translator!
Hop BroIBU is a rough bitterness scale. Here, even though it’s a Double IPA, it’s not just brute force. It’s built with balance in mind.
MugiOh wow! And the aroma sounds wild too. Pineapple and white grape? Am I ordering beer or a fruit platter?
Hop BroAnd there’s a strawberry-like note layered in too. It uses a Pilsner malt base, which lets the six-hop aroma come through cleanly.
MugiSix hops? That’s basically a hop idol group. I want to be surrounded by that juicy aroma immediately!
Hop BroAnd Beer House Hobbit is right by Keihan Hirakata-shi Station. It’s a craft beer specialty pub with six rotating domestic drafts and 50 to 60 bottles.
MugiRight by the station? That’s unfairly convenient. I want to start with that full body in Double Furin, then compare the other taps too!
Hop BroOn a hot day, this mix of fruit-forward hops and solid body really hits. I’d want to check the pour condition and catch it at the perfect moment.
MugiSettled. My brain is already in Double Furin mode. Hop bro, let’s go drink it now!
