craft beer BLUE taps BREW CLASSIC's Aint Liquid Double IPA
craft beer BLUE, a beer pub in Sagamihara, announced one new tap opening today. The beer is BREW CLASSIC's Aint Liquid Double IPA from Ishikawa, a hop-forward pint with plenty of aroma and a firm finish.
Hop BroNews from Sagamihara: craft beer BLUE has one fresh tap going on today. It’s BREW CLASSIC’s Ain't Liquid from Ishikawa, and that already has my full attention.
MugiWait, that name sounds intense! A Double IPA means big bitterness and big body, right?
Hop BroYes, but it’s not just brute force. This one uses Freestyle Nelson hops and Riwaka for the first time there, with Mosaic cryo and Columbus layered in too.
MugiWhat is that! Mosaic cryo sounds like they froze the hops and gave them superpowers.
Hop BroFair question. Cryo basically means the best part of hops gets concentrated, so the aroma pops harder and cleaner.
MugiOhh, nice! So what does it smell like? When I hear tropical layers, my brain immediately starts playing beach music.
Hop BroThink stone fruit, pineapple, and exotic citrus. It pours clear gold, and somehow still has a clean finish even with all that aroma.
MugiHold on, it’s 8% ABV and still finishes clean? That’s a final boss wearing a friendly smile.
Hop BroExactly. And craft beer BLUE keeps eight domestic taps on all the time, so a hop-forward beer like this really stands out on the list.
MugiThat rules. If it’s great for a first pint and also good for slowly geeking out over IPA, that’s a very dangerous pub in the best way.
Hop BroAin't Liquid feels like the hop aroma centerpiece of this lineup. I don’t just want a sip, I want to chase the nose on this one.
MugiThen it’s settled. The second I see that clear gold pour, I’m ordering it, and you are not allowed to lecture longer than the first cheers.
