Hop BroThe Craft Beer Spot Hathor in Osaka's Kyobashi posted on Instagram, "Well then, today's photo is...", and what showed up there was Ocean Thunder WC IPA.
MugiWhoa! Even the title sounds powerful! Is Ocean Thunder the kind that gets struck by lightning?
Hop BroThe name is great, but what stands out is that it's Trademark (U.S.). Even among Hathor's tap info, it's the kind of label that hop lovers are likely to react to.
MugiWhat's a WC IPA? That abbreviation WC IPA looks like a code name, like a meeting is about to start all of a sudden!
Hop BroWC stands for West Coast IPA. Its appeal is a pronounced aroma and crisp bitterness, so it's the type you enjoy for a sharp, clean drink rather than anything sweet and heavy.
MugiI see, so it's basically a beer that wakes up your brain? Hearing crisp bitterness makes me feel like I should be prepared, but now I'm curious!
Hop BroExactly. And Hathor is a place that focuses on taps and lets you enjoy whatever the day brings, so when a beer like this comes in, it really lifts the mood.
MugiAnd being able to follow the day's tap info in Osaka's Kyobashi is so much fun! Daily updates feel like beer-world breaking news!
Hop BroNot overexplaining things and just putting the label out there also has that beer-pub feel. Posts that assume you're actually going to raise a glass there make the atmosphere of the place visible.
MugiThen I'm heading to Kyobashi on my next day off! Next drink might be this one, and now my throat is already looking for an IPA!
Hop BroNice, I want to go too. Basking in the aroma of hops and ending up wanting one more drink is exactly how it goes, isn't it?

In the Instagram post from "Craft Beer Spot Hathor" that could be confirmed as of 11:30 on March 26, "Well then, today's photo is...", "Ocean Thunder WC IPA" was introduced as one of the beers in the tap-list context.
What is clearly stated in the post is the following combination:
- Beer name: Ocean Thunder WC IPA
- Brewery: Trademark (U.S.)
Since the style is listed as WC IPA (West Coast IPA), it is the kind of beer that appeals to IPA fans with its aromatic presence and crisp bitterness at the center. The posting style, which simply presents the label without piling on flashy explanations, also feels very true to a beer pub where the assumption is that you'll be raising a glass in person.
