Senba Beer Factory's Factory Manager Akane Seeks Expressions for the "Pouring Sound"
Senba Beer Factory in Osaka's Chuo Ward asked on Instagram how to write the sound of pouring beer. Factory manager Akane shared her own take, "koku koku koku," and a slice of everyday life with followers.
Hop BroNext up is a pretty stylish topic: writing the sound of pouring in words. Senba Beer Factory asked on Instagram how to express the sound when pouring beer, and factory manager Akane answered, "koku koku koku, I guess."
MugiWhat! Just by writing a sound in words, it gets that exciting? It's kind of cute, and I'm really curious!
Hop BroExactly. And the setting is a brewery that brews in the basement of Semba in Honmachi, Chuo Ward, Osaka City. Senba Beer Factory is built around beer inspired by Belgian styles, and just the atmosphere alone makes you want another glass.
MugiI've heard of Belgian beer, but what does a brew inspired by that style even mean? It's not just stylish?
Hop BroIt's not just stylish. For example, it's an approach that values yeast aroma and the character of fermentation, and builds depth into the flavor, which is why it has an appeal that goes beyond just taste.
MugiWhoa. But is 'koku koku koku' really the sound of beer? The right answer for the pouring sound is that much up to each person?
Hop BroThat's what makes it interesting. The froth and the flow of the liquid when it's poured into a glass can actually feel less like 'goku goku' and more like something quieter, like koku koku koku or the rhythm of droplets.
MugiWow, so delicate!? Then I used to think it was just 'pshwoosh~' for me, but the atmosphere of the sound matters too!
Hop BroExactly. Senba Beer Factory serves fresh draft beer in the taproom, and because you can enjoy three standard beers plus limited brews, it feels like the conversation starts from the moment it's poured.
MugiWow, I want to try the limited brews too! And if the factory manager Akane herself brings it up, it's already fun before even drinking!
Hop BroThat's right. Posts like this are great because they share with drinkers not just the beer's taste, but even the time spent waiting.
MugiThen today I want to drink while imagining koku koku koku! I want to enjoy Senba Beer Factory's beer with my ears too!
