Hop BroHere's a good one: Great Dane Brewing was featured by Yamagata TV, and they highlighted the limited SAGAE CHERRY TRIPEL.
MugiWhat! A Yamagata TV feature for a beer? That's basically celebrity status before breakfast!
Hop BroAnd the star is SAGAE CHERRY TRIPEL, a re-release brewed with Napoleon cherries from Shiroiwa, Sagae, and it won gold at the International Beer Cup 2024.
MugiWait, what is a Tripel? It sounds less like beer and more like a finishing move!
Hop BroTripel is a Belgian-style ale that's fairly strong but still floral and surprisingly smooth, and that contrast is the whole charm.
MugiNo way, strong but graceful? So it's the beer version of someone who lifts weights and does ballet?
Hop BroExactly, and the clever part is the Napoleon character doesn't make it taste like juice; it shows up in the aroma and lingering finish.
MugiOhh, so it's more like fruit-beer balance than a sweet cherry bomb. That sounds very grown-up!
Hop BroThe segment airs on August 29, 6:55-7:30 during YTS Yamagata TV's Asaha 5-chan!, and the VTR is also planned for the official YouTube the same day.
MugiAnd if I can have it at the restaurant or take home a bottle, Akiu views and beer sounds like a dangerously good plan.
Hop BroYeah, it really feels like a whole local story in one glass: Yamagata fruit, an Akiu brewery, and the people behind both.
MugiThat's it, I'm in. After the broadcast, I need a pour immediately before my throat files a complaint!
