Hop BroHiranoya Sake Shop / Beer Stand Hiranoya in Shinsen came through with a double keg tap.
MugiWhat, two at once!? A simultaneous tap really makes you that happy!
Hop BroThis time it's a hazy IPA called Fog Father from New Zealand's Double Vision Brewing.
MugiA hazy IPA? What's that? You mean an IPA with cloudiness?
Hop BroExactly. It also builds the aroma with Riwaka, Cascade, and Sabro, and the fullness from oats and wheat expands the mouthfeel.
MugiWow, passion fruit and coconut too, it feels like a tropical overload!
Hop BroThe other one is the shop's 12th anniversary beer, 12th Demon Snake Amber, brewed at fete(フェット) Mishima Brewery.
MugiThat name sounds strong! What kind of flavor is an amber lager?
Hop BroIt has a good balance of bitterness, sweetness, aroma, body, and aftertaste, plus the steady character you get from the base Fuji Rouge.
MugiI see, the lineup of an imported hazy and an anniversary original is great, with the shop's personality on full display!
Hop BroAnd since the post says only one keg left, this definitely makes you want to go early.
MugiYeah, I'm in the mood to drink right now in Shinsen!
Details of the Two-Keg Tap
Hiranoya Sake Shop / Beer Stand Hiranoya posted an update about its rotating draft beer lineup. This time, it is a double keg tap. The first is Fog Father from New Zealand's Double Vision Brewing. It is a hazy IPA with 6.1% ABV, featuring a hop design built around Riwaka, Cascade, and Sabro, and the post describes it as having a rich mouthfeel thanks to oats and wheat. In addition to tropical and citrus notes, it is a beer layered with passion fruit, grapefruit, lemon, and coconut.
The second is the original beer 12th Demon Snake Amber, brewed to celebrate the shop's 12th anniversary. This amber lager was brewed at fete(フェット) Mishima Brewery in Mishima, Shizuoka, and uses that brewery's regular beer Fuji Rouge as its base. The post described it as a beer with a well-balanced interplay of bitterness, sweetness, aroma, body, and aftertaste, making it easy to keep drinking without getting tired of it.
