NOMCRAFT x SEOUL BREWERY's "Banana Kick" Goes on Tap at CRAFT KOFU in Kofu
The beer pub CRAFT KOFU in Kofu, Yamanashi, has started serving the collaboration beer "Banana Kick" from NOMCRAFT BREWING and SEOUL BREWERY. This banana-forward hefeweizen is a guest beer worth trying.
Hop BroAt `CRAFT KOFU` in Kofu, the NOMCRAFT BREWING x SEOUL BREWERY collaboration, Banana Kick is on tap. Just from the name, it's all banana, and it's the kind of guest beer that really hits if you're into that.
MugiWhoa! By all banana, do you mean it really tastes like banana juice?!
Hop BroNot quite that sweet, but it's a banana-forward hefeweizen. The style combines a soft wheat-based mouthfeel with fruity aromas.
MugiI hear about hefeweizen a lot, but is it basically a wheat beer? That suddenly sounds kind of healthy!
Hop BroYeah, roughly speaking, it's a beer made with wheat malt, so it tends to have a soft mouthfeel. Also, hefeweizen yeast can bring out a banana-like aroma, and this one is pushing that front and center.
MugiI get it! So it's the kind that wins with aroma. It sounds like it comes at you in a soft wave before you even drink it, like my nose is already toasting first!
Hop Bro`Banana Kick` also has the playful spirit that only a collaboration can have, but the style itself remains approachable, which is the nice part. It makes sense that it's described as an ultra-banana hefeweizen.
Mugi`CRAFT KOFU` is in the center of Kofu, so it's easy to drop in and drink, right? And if there's guest-beer rotation, that's reason enough to keep going back!
Hop BroExactly. Drinking it from the tap makes the aroma and mouthfeel easier to appreciate, so taking your time inside the shop is the way to go.
MugiTo find such an interesting beer right here in Kofu, I want to go now! Wrapped in banana aroma, I want to jump on the collaboration too!
Hop BroNice. Then today it's settled as a reason to have a pint in Kofu at `CRAFT KOFU`. This is honestly making me want to go drink there too.
