THE CRAFT Introduces Johana Beer's 'La France': A Drink for Early Summer
The beer pub THE CRAFT in Sapporo's Susukino introduced Johana Beer’s fruit ale, "La France," on Instagram. It is characterized by the juicy flavor and sweet aroma of La France, and can be enjoyed like a light sparkling wine.
Hop BroWhat THE CRAFT was pushing in Susukino, Sapporo, was Johana Beer's "La France". It's perfect for early summer, and just reading about it makes your throat want a drink.
MugiWait, beer and La France, and it's like sparkling wine? Does that mean it's more like fruit juice?
Hop BroThat's right, it's a fruit ale. It's a beer that puts the aroma of the fruit front and center. The sweet aroma comes through, but it's not too heavy, so it works well like an aperitif.
MugiHuh, using beer as a palate cleanser sounds a little strange, doesn't it? Like a change of pace in the middle of a meal?
Hop BroExactly. It's the kind of thing that resets your mouth between rich dishes. The juiciness of La France pulls you in for the next bite.
MugiWow, that's great! And THE CRAFT is in the center of Susukino, right? Dropping by after work would be dangerous.
Hop BroVery dangerous. And if you look at the hashtags in the post, the range of brands covered is amazing. When Yo-Ho, Shiga Kogen, and COEDO are all listed together, you can really feel how broad the shop's horizons are.
MugiWhat, that many? So it's basically a beer library. The kind of place where you'd get overwhelmed by choices and never make it home!
Hop BroExactly. The star of the show is of course the sweet aroma and juicy character, but when you drink it at a place like THE CRAFT, the recommendation itself is part of what makes it delicious.
MugiJust reading that makes me want to drink it! Tonight I'm going to toast with La France and enter full early-summer mode too!
