Hop BroIzakaya Beer Yoshioka in Umegaoka has announced four new taps on Instagram. Repubrew's Flash Hop IPA, Ise Kadoya Brewery's Pale Ale, Hinomoto Brewing's Ryusou Sousou, and Kyoto Brewing's Shukyu 6-Nichi make for a pretty fun lineup, don't they?
MugiWhoa! Four updates at once is way more luxurious than I expected. And just from the names they already sound delicious, but IPA and pils and all that still feels kind of fuzzy to me...!
Hop BroThat's a good question. Flash Hop IPA is a WC IPA, so it's the kind that puts hop aroma and bitterness front and center. Ryusou Sousou is an Italian Pils, which is light and easy to drink and pairs well with food, and Shukyu 6-Nichi is a Session IPA, so its big draw is that it's lighter and easy to drink.
MugiWC IPA? What is that! The moment more letters show up, my brain is clogged with acronyms!
Hop BroWC stands for West Coast, and it's a style where the clean bitterness and hop character tend to stand out. So Flash Hop IPA is basically the kind of beer where the hops take the lead.
MugiI seeee! Then Ise Kadoya Brewery's Pale Ale seems right in the sweet spot for easy drinking, and it could totally be the best partner for a meal.
Hop BroExactly. And what's interesting is that this place isn't just moving on the beer side. Four kinds of pizza have been added, and genovese has become a regular, so you can really see the Italian side getting stronger.
MugiWait, four pizzas added! So that means my stomach is already marching out before I even start drinking, right?!
Hop BroExactly. It's a super easy place to drop by, just three minutes on foot from Umegaoka Station's south exit, open until 1 a.m. Tuesday through Saturday and until midnight on Sundays.
MugiStopping by after work, drinking Shukyu 6-Nichi, and eating genovese sounds amazing...! And with a coming soon... note too, I'm getting restless waiting for the next update.
Hop BroYeah, it's the kind of place where it's worth following both the rotating taps and the food updates. Today, the lineup makes you want to enjoy everything from IPA to pils in Umegaoka, and this definitely isn't a one-drink kind of night.
MugiNo way I'm stopping at one! I'm starting with Flash Hop IPA, then going for the pizza and the genovese too... that's my full drink-and-eat course!
