Hop BroThere’s good news from springtime Takaoka: HOP TAP SHOP posted something for the graduation and job-hunting season on March 5.
MugiWhoa! A celebratory post from a shop is the best, and they even wrote about the staff starting a new chapter. That’s so hype!
Hop BroExactly. On top of announcing the farewell and welcome party, they also released the day's 11-tap list, and there are 3 new beers on tap too.
MugiWhat, that’s a lot of information! But there are so many styles that hazy DIPA already sounds like a spell!
Hop BroTo break it down, it's basically a juicy, aroma-forward IPA with a strong, full-bodied feel. And an imperial gose has saltiness and tartness as its accents.
MugiOh wow, so there really is such a thing as a “salty beer”!? My brain can't keep up, but my urge to compare beers is skyrocketing!
Hop BroThe lineup is pretty luxurious too, with WCB's McKenzie Pils, Minoh Beer’s Honey Saison, and Minami Shinshu’s Apple Hop Orion, so it spans from light to rich.
MugiThe Inkhorn and Kyoto Brewing collab is in there too, right? Just the names get me excited. Jibishinchou and Predestined Harmony is a strong pairing!
Hop BroIf you want to go all out, a clean progression would be pilsner → Belgian white → West Coast IPA → oatmeal stout. It’s really a lineup that lets you design the mood of the day.
MugiThey care about human connections and still take beer seriously, so it’s impossible not to root for them! Tonight, let’s start with the 3 new beers on tap!
