Hop BroToday's topic is craft beer BLUE. In Sagamihara, they've just tapped Yamorido's Kyoto-brewed "Nanamin," a 7% Juicy IPA made with seven hops.
MugiWhat! Seven hops? That's like an all-star game for hops! The name "Nanamin" sounds cute, but the beer sounds seriously intense.
Hop BroThat's the fun part. It even has Peacherine in the mix, so with a New Zealand hop in there, the aroma design is probably going hard.
MugiWhat does that even mean? Aroma design makes this sound like science class! Do beers get blueprints now?
Hop BroIn a way, yes. It means layering juicy fruit-like aromas. A Juicy IPA pushes fruitiness forward and keeps the bitterness from feeling too aggressive.
MugiOhhh! Then I want to compare it with the other taps too. How wide is the lineup?
Hop BroPretty wide. From CERVOISE to Rauchbier, they've got saison, fruit sour ale, Hazy IPA, DIPA, and American IPA all in one lineup.
MugiHold on, what is Rauchbier!? A spell? A character name? Beer just turned into an RPG!
Hop BroRauchbier is a German-style smoked beer built around smoky malt aroma. So craft beer BLUE lets you jump from aroma-heavy IPAs to malt-driven pours.
MugiAnd Saturday starts at 3 p.m., right? That means an afternoon start with Nanamin and then a full tasting adventure.
Hop BroThat's the move. First pour is Nanamin, then maybe AJISAI or Lucky Charm, and finish with a reflective Rauchbier.
