The Beer Shop Hirakata city adds second-batch peach weizen and five Coronado taps
The Beer Shop Hirakata city in Hirakata, Osaka, announced a second batch of Minoh Beer’s "Kokusan Momo Weizen - Hakuhou -" on August 28. The pub’s draft list also includes Kurolabel and five Coronado Brewing beers.
Hop BroToday's headline is The Beer Shop Hirakata city. Their August 28 tap list is stacked, with the second peach weizen release and five Coronado beers all coming on at once.
MugiWait, second peach weizen? What is that even! Is it beer, dessert, or some delicious identity crisis?
Hop BroThat is the fun part. It's Minoh Beer's Kokusan Momo Weizen Hakuhou, and this batch is said to have more peach character than the earlier release, with gentle sweetness and classic weizen character.
MugiOkay, but classic weizen character sounds like you're trying to sneak me into a lecture. What does it actually taste like?
Hop BroWeizen is a wheat beer style, so you usually get a soft mouthfeel. If I say ester profile, I lose you, so think of it as a fluffy base that lets the peach aroma land smoothly.
MugiA fluffy base, that's cute. And they brought in two full cases, right? So I do not have to sprint there like it's a ticket drop.
Hop BroAnd the tap spread is wide. Coronado Brewing has a five-beer lineup with Hazy Weekend IPA, Orange Avenue Wit, Aloha Warrior, Big Weekend Double IPA, and Weekend Vibes IPA.
MugiWhat is Double IPA supposed to mean? It sounds like one glass and my weekend turns into a dramatic documentary.
Hop BroMore or less, yes. Double IPA usually means bigger hop impact and higher alcohol, while Orange Avenue Wit drinks lighter. Plus Sapporo Black Label is served as single-pour or mellow-pour, which changes the texture.
MugiThat is dangerously fun. If they're open from 3 to 11, I want a peach-to-IPA route, and now I even want to peek at those 17th anniversary tickets.
Hop BroIt is a one-person operation all day, so timing matters, but this lineup is too good to ignore. Starting with the peach weizen feels like the right move.
MugiThen it's settled. Peach first, hops later. I am fully ready for a soft fruity opener and a loud hop-powered finish.
