Hop BroSagamihara City’s Minami Ward pub craft beer BLUE announced on April 29 that it would open five new beers today. It’s a pretty good setup for stopping by after work and taking your time comparing the taps.
MugiWhoa, five new taps today? If that many show up at once, I’d freeze in front of the menu from sheer happiness!
Hop BroFirst up is Let's Beer Works' PUPPY LOVE. It’s a Sour Ale with mango and passion fruit, and its sweet-tart fruitiness and gentle mouthfeel are the appeal.
MugiA sour ale with sweet-tart fruitiness makes sense, but why does it taste so fruity even though it’s beer!?
Hop BroThat’s where the fermentation design and the use of adjuncts come in. In short, you layer acidity and fruit aroma onto the beer’s structure, so even though it feels like juice, it still comes together as beer.
MugiGot it! Then what about SHARED BREWERY’s Chillax Wednesday? Just the name Session IPA makes it sound light and easygoing!
Hop BroExactly, Session IPA is all about drinkability. It puts the hop character front and center while keeping the alcohol relatively restrained, so it’s perfect for a day when you want to enjoy it for a long time.
MugiWhoa, AFURI BREWING’s Yuzu Sansho IPA too!? I can picture yuzu, but if sansho is in there too, there’d be so much flavor information my brain would start buzzing!
Hop BroThat’s the interesting part. The yuzu and sansho combination gives it a Japanese-style aroma, while the finish is crisp and tight. It also pairs well with IPA bitterness.
MugiAsunaro Brewery’s Chiyo Double IPA sounds interesting too! Idaho 7 already sounds fierce, and if it’s tropical then it’s definitely one of the good ones!
Hop BroExactly, and service starts at 5 p.m., so it’s perfect if you’re stopping by after work. Starting lightly with PUPPY LOVE and then moving on to DIPA and Hazy IPA would be ideal.
MugiWow, it sounds like a night made for tasting side by side! I think I’d start with a sour, then Yuzu Sansho, and finish softly with a Hazy!
Hop BroGood sequence. Then tonight let’s work our way through craft beer BLUE from fruitiness to IPA in earnest. Just talking about it is already making my throat remember beer.
The beer pub "craft beer BLUE" in Sagamidai, Minami Ward, Sagamihara City, Kanagawa Prefecture, announced five new taps in a post on April 29. Located on the second floor of Garden Building II, it is the kind of place that suits stopping by after work to slowly compare the taps.
What stands out first in the day’s new lineup is Let's Beer Works' "PUPPY LOVE." It is a Sour Ale made with mango and passion fruit, and is said to be characterized by sweet-tart fruitiness and a soft mouthfeel. Also on tap is SHARED BREWERY's "Chillax Wednesday," a Session IPA that puts hop character front and center, and AFURI BREWING's "Afuri no Himitsu," a Yuzu Sansho IPA combining yuzu and sansho.
In addition, Asunaro Brewery's "Chiyo Double IPA" is a DIPA built around Idaho 7, emphasizing tropical notes that rise through the nose and a light sweetness. NOMCRAFT Brewing's "Mystic Tiger" is described as having a refreshing mango-lemonade-like quality and a fruit-salad-like flavor thanks to multiple hops. The post also listed THREE ARROWS BREWING's "Sunset Kamoshika" and BrewBeast Brewery's "BEASTIE" and "ECLIPSE" on the tap list.
Service begins at 5 p.m. From fruit-forward sours to easy-drinking Session IPAs, and on to DIPAs with solid bitterness and body, it offers a wide range of styles all at once.
