MugiWait! A beer that tastes like mixed juice? That actually exists?

MugiWhat is that! Fruit from hops? Isn't the juice vibe way too strong?
Hop BroThat's the interesting part. It's described as fruity and milky, so it's not just sweetening things up.

MugiOh wow! If you can compare five different beers, that's the kind of day that's fun just deciding what to drink!
Hop BroAnd it's directly connected to Keihan Hirakatashi Station, so I like that you can walk into a warm wooden space and drink right there.
