Hop BroA new arrival at 444 BEYOND in Mizue: Johana Beer’s "Great Blue" has come in. It has the playful spirit you’d expect from a Toyama brewery, and this time it’s a fruit ale.
MugiWow, a blue beer!? That’s the kind of thing that lifts your mood just from the look of it. It feels summery, and I want to take a picture!
Hop BroExactly. When you pour it into a glass, it gives off that all-summer beach vibe. The taste is refreshing, like a lemon soda bursting open, and with an ABV of 4.5%, it goes down light and easy.
MugiSo fruit ale means, like, a sweet juice-like beer? Beer that tastes like lemon squash is kind of amazing!
Hop BroThat’s the important part: it uses fruit aroma and acidity, but it still has a solid beer backbone. So it feels like an adult lemon squash, while still drinking like a proper ale.
MugiI get it, so it’s safe even if you don’t like bitterness. If it’s good for your first drink, it’s friendly for beer beginners too!
Hop BroExactly. As the weather gets hotter, this kind of refreshing beer really hits the spot. It isn’t heavy, but it still gives you that 'I’m drinking craft beer' feeling.
MugiAnd if it’s near Mizue Station, I can just swing by. Being able to go for just one glass is really nice!
Hop BroThey’ve also posted the hours: opening at 2:00 p.m. on May 31, closing at 9:00 p.m., with last order at 8:30 p.m. If you want to try it on the weekend, the timing is easy to plan.
MugiAlright, it's decided for today! I want to enjoy the atmosphere of the place while I’m there to go drink Great Blue too, and I’m one step deeper into the craft beer rabbit hole!
Hop BroNice, then today we toast with Johana Beer. The kind that draws you in with its look, convinces you when you drink it, and leaves you wanting another glass.
