Hop BroAt SQUIRREL FOREST in Nagano City, eight domestic labels from Paint Palette Brewing and Gora Brewery have all arrived at once.
MugiWhoa, eight kinds!? Are two farmhouse ales really that different?
Hop BroThey are. From Breath Of Tano with coffee to Timeless Symphony with sake lees and lemongrass, the personality of the adjuncts changes everything.
MugiHearing "adjuncts" suddenly makes it feel like a science lab! Does sake lees and lemongrass really go with beer?
Hop BroIt really does. The earthy umami of the farmhouse base is joined by citrus and herbal notes, and the layers of aroma stack together beautifully.
MugiHuh! So there are lighter ones too? A Session IPA sounds like something even a craft beer beginner could handle!
Hop BroThere are. Gora Brewery's Moon Lover is a Session IPA at 5.0%, and Practical Logic is a DDH Hazy IPA at 8% with a strong hop presence.
Mugi8% means they're really going for it! And there are even minty taps? What does that do to your mouth?
Hop BroIt's the kind that refreshes everything right away. Right now, two mint-based beers are on tap, and you can check the latest in Now On Tap.
MugiThen this is the place to drink in Nagano City! I think I'm falling into the trap of tasting comparisons starting today!
Hop BroNice. The best flow is to start with the light Moon Lover, move on to the rich Hazy, and finish with mint.
MugiThinking about the order makes it even more fun! Tonight's drink is probably already decided at SQUIRREL FOREST.
