Hop BroIt's here, ISEKADO has released a spring-limited re-release announcement for ZAKU Shinryoku.
MugiWhat! The 13th re-release? It's that popular!?
Hop BroThat's right, and this time it's a sake lees hazy IPA made with sake lees from Mie's famed sake, "Zaku."
MugiSake lees and IPA? Wait, what kind of combination is that?
Hop BroHere's the thing: the fermentation pairing is interesting. When the juiciness of a hazy IPA gets layered with aromas from the sake lees, it becomes strong in ginjo aroma.
MugiWow! It smells like sake but it's beer, which is kind of mysterious!
Hop BroAnd ISEKADO is a brewery in Ise City, Mie Prefecture, so what I like is that they really make use of the local fermentation culture. It's packed with Ise's fermentation culture.
MugiWhat is that, I want to drink it so badly! Hearing spring version makes it feel even more limited!
Hop BroSales start on Tuesday for BtoB and Wednesday for EC, so Tuesday and Wednesday are the key days.
MugiOkay, I put it on my calendar! I've already decided, this year I'm drinking it.
Hop BroLet's end with a toast. Get ahead of spring's aroma, because this is one beer you just have to drink.
MugiYeah, I want to drink it right now! Sake-lees hazy sounds amazing just from the name!
