This Brewing Begins Serving a New Sour IPA in Tokyo
Tokyo-based This Brewing has announced the start of service for a new sour IPA. The brewery has not yet disclosed the beer’s official name, ABV, ingredients, or availability details, but the release adds another sour-focused beer to its changing lineup and invites drinkers to try it at the brewery’s taproom.
This Brewing, a Tokyo-based brewery, has announced on Instagram that it has begun serving a new sour IPA. The post encourages customers to give it a try, but does not provide further details such as the beer’s official product name, alcohol content, hop varieties, ingredients, or whether the release is limited.
Sour IPA combines the hop aroma and bitterness associated with IPA with a bright acidity created through techniques such as sour fermentation. The balance between acidity, bitterness, and fruit-forward hop character can produce a lighter and more refreshing profile than a conventional IPA. For this release, the precise flavor impression will need to be confirmed at the brewery, as no tasting notes have been published.
This Brewing describes its beers as creations that change with each recipe and can only be experienced “here and now.” Its official lineup has included sour ales made with ingredients such as raspberry, ponkan, and cardamom, showing the brewery’s interest in exploring acidity and distinctive flavor combinations. The new sour IPA may offer another look at that approach.
The brewery and taproom is located in the Yushima area of Tokyo, where visitors can enjoy beer alongside the brewing tanks. Opening hours and availability may change, so customers should check the brewery’s official website or social media before visiting. For drinkers interested in sour beer and hop-driven styles, this new release is worth watching.
