Hop BroIt's been tapped at BEER OTAKU SPICE in Taito Ward: Totopia Brewery's "Loopphobia" has arrived.
MugiWhoa! The name alone makes me curious, but what exactly is Loopphobia!?
Hop BroThis is a 2Mash DDH Hazy TIPA. They brew it in two separate mash stages, building in aroma and body.
Mugi2Mash? Wait, does that mean it gets boiled a few times? Now the kitchen feels like a beer factory and I'm confused!
Hop BroBasically, it's a brewing method that brings out the umami of the ingredients. And the hops are Citra and Nelson, plus Superdelic and Strata.
MugiWow! That sounds so aromatic! White grape notes and citrus? That's the kind of beer that already tastes good before you even drink it!
Hop BroExactly. It has that Nelson-driven white grape character, bright citrus on top, and the full-bodied feel typical of a Hazy TIPA.
MugiAnd the food is strong too, right? Chicken and tuna biryani? That's basically beer's perfect partner!
Hop BroRight, and they also serve mazesoba at lunch only, so it's a place you can really enjoy from midday.
MugiI heard lunch starts at 11:30, and if they're open until 11:00 p.m. last order at night, using it differently by day and night is perfect!
Hop BroOn Golden Week, the right move is to drop by casually and enjoy both the beer and the spice dishes. Days like this are when I want to go all out from the first drink.
MugiYeah, I already want to drink it! Loopphobia and biryani - that's today's pairing!
