Himitsu Beer Arrives at Maruho Sake Shop Minami Branch, Three Varieties Including Sea Memories
At Maruho Sake Shop Minami Branch in Naniwa Ward, Osaka, Himitsu Beer from Ise, Mie has arrived. In an Instagram post, along with an episode about returning to Ise, you can also see cans of Sea Memories, Koguma Ale, and Mabudachi SAISON.
Hop BroThere’s a delivery of Mie/Ise’s Himitsu Beer at Maruho Sake Shop Minami Branch in Osaka’s Naniwa Ward. Three varieties were confirmed in cans, and just the names alone are exciting.
MugiWait, from Ise!? Sea Memories already sounds so romantic, but what kind of beer is it!
Hop BroThis is a Sea salt IPA, and the key point is that it uses Iwato salt. The mineral character and saltiness come through beautifully, leaving an aftertaste like you’ve taken a walk by the sea.
MugiHold on, salt in an IPA!? Adding salt to beer won’t make it too salty?
Hop BroThat’s the interesting part: it’s not just salty, it helps shape the outline of the beer. The gentle saltiness keeps the bitterness from becoming too sharp and makes the drinking feel crisp.
MugiOh, I see! That sounds like it would go great with food too! I’m curious about Koguma Ale as well; the bear label is just too cute!
Hop BroKoguma Ale is an English Pale Ale, the kind that really shows soft malt sweetness. Because it’s easy to pair with meals, it’s the kind of companion that works with fried chicken or sausages.
MugiWhat is that, an all-rounder! But the one that sounds most quirky is probably Mabudachi SAISON; the name alone feels so friendly!
Hop BroExactly, it’s a farmhouse ale with chipotle and lime, so the brightness of lime and a light kick from chipotle really stand out. It changes the more you drink it, so it’s fun that the first sip and the last sip give different impressions.
MugiWait, that’s absolutely the kind of beer you want to sip while chatting! If it says there’s a delivery planned for next week too, then there’s even more fun in following along!
Hop BroMaruho Sake Shop Minami Branch is in the Namba-Motomachi area, and it’s nice that the TAP LIST is easy to keep up with too. Tonight, I’d want to have a drink while comparing the guest cans and talking about Ise.
MugiYeah, now I just have to stop by after work...! Starting with a glass of Sea Memories, I’d end up wanting to drink all three in order!
At the beer pub Maruho Sake Shop Minami Branch in Naniwa Ward, Osaka, Himitsu Beer from Ise, Mie, has arrived. In the Instagram post, it began, 'Hello, I’m from Ise, it’s a festival, I’ll be going again next week,' and it also mentioned driving around the brewery area when returning to Ise. The indication that it will be visited again next week suggests a continuing arrival of guest beers.
The photos show cans with animal motifs, typical of Himitsu Beer. Confirmed are Sea Memories (Sea salt IPA), which uses Iwato salt; Koguma Ale (English Pale Ale), with an eye-catching bear label; and Mabudachi SAISON (farmhouse ale with chipotle and lime), accented with chipotle and lime. Each is a clearly distinctive label, offering the fun of tracing the shape of the flavor one by one.
Sea Memories is a beer characterized by mineral notes and a gentle saltiness that evokes the sea of Ise. Koguma Ale is a pale ale that tends to bring out the soft umami of malt and pairs easily with food. Mabudachi SAISON is accented by the brightness of lime and a light spiciness from chipotle, changing its expression the more you drink it.
