Hop BroHOP MAN in Chigasaki has tapped the collaboration Shin Asahi Oni IPA with Noboribetsu local beer Oni Densetsu.
MugiWhoa! Just the name Oni Densetsu sounds fierce! What does Shin Asahi Oni IPA taste like?
Hop BroIt's a West Coast IPA with 7.5% ABV and 65 IBU. KRUSH, Citra, Strata, and Simcoe give it citrus and tropical notes, plus peach and grape-like fruitiness, and it finishes with a clean bitterness.
MugiABV I get, but what's IBU? Is that a bitterness scale?
Hop BroExactly, it's basically a bitterness number. At 65 it's definitely bitter, but because it also has fruity aroma, it has real depth rather than just being bitter.
MugiI see, it sounds a little technical but delicious! And HOP MAN can pour up to 38 draft beers?
Hop BroThat's right. Right now, with the PERFECT Black Label as the anchor, they've got Shiga Kogen, Y.MARKET, Passific Brewing, Ushitora, Minoh, and Nara Brewing on tap, so the tasting never stops.
MugiWhoa, they've got both staples and unique beers! Being able to choose by mood, like Zwickle Pils or Weizen, is the best!
Hop BroAnd the kegs that emptied the day before show how fast the taps turn over. Baby Blonde Miyama, PSYCHEDELICROCK KRIEK, Shiga Kogen IPA - they keep rotating so regulars never get bored.
MugiAnd from the 17th to the 19th there's even the Chigasaki Jūmenzaka Beer Fest? In that case, I want a drink at HOP MAN today, no, make that two!
