10 beers on Canal brewing's tap board, including C #3 and two MAHOWBREW collaborations
A Canal brewing Instagram post showed 10 beers lined up on the tap board. Centered on the brewery's own C #3, the lineup also spans collaborations with open air, Nara Brewing, and MAHOWBREW, showcasing a wide range of character from breweries across Japan.
Hop BroToday's Canal brewing tap board is pretty strong. When 10 beers are lined up in Oimachi, it's less a shelf and more a beer exhibition.
MugiWait, there are 10 beers on tap!? With that many, I'd be happy, but I'd also start crying because I couldn't choose!
Hop BroThe anchor is definitely C #3. It's Canal brewing's signature IPA, and if you start with that, you can immediately get a feel for the shop's direction.
MugiI hear IPA all the time, but that means hops are the star, right? Just the name makes it sound bitter, so I get nervous!
Hop BroExactly. On top of that, the beer's character really comes through in the aroma. For example, hopful mind is open air's Hazy IPA, and it's the kind of beer where haze and juiciness really stand out.
MugiOhhh! So what exactly is a Hazy IPA? Is it literally all foggy!? It sounds super tasty, though!
Hop BroSimply put, its appeal is haze and fruitiness. And with beers like Daylight Moon, a Fruit Ale, and even GOLDEN MARGINS, a Lager, the range of flavors is really broad.
MugiWow, it's like a department store of flavors! And if there's even Lager, people who don't like hops should still have an easy time getting in!
Hop BroExactly, and the Porter side is strong too. LIGHTHOUSE -Nitro Ver.-, Aeonbound, an Imperial Stout, and even Dancing in the Moonlight as a Braggot make it feel almost like banquet hall level variety.
MugiWow, this much variety at a standing bar is seriously amazing... If Oimachi has this many unique beers lined up, I want the two of us to go through all of them, one by one, right now!
