Hop BroThis Yokosuka release has my full attention today. Grandline Brewing just started outside sales for Lucky NUMBER.
MugiWhat! That name already sounds lucky and dangerous. Is it a new Yokosuka Brewery beer?
Hop BroExactly. It is positioned as a 7th anniversary collab celebrating NUMBER 6, which makes it even more fun.
MugiWhoa, okay. But what is a Cold Session IPA? It sounds like a beer for a very chill meeting room.
Hop BroA meeting-room IPA would be a management problem. Basically it is light and dry, easy to drink, but still lets the hop aroma pop.
MugiThat already sounds good! But the article says lager yeast too. How is it an IPA and a lager thing at the same time?!
Hop BroThat is the clever part. Using lager yeast helps create a clean finish, so the hop aroma and flavor come through more clearly.
MugiNo way! And it also says this was their first use of rice. Rice is out here doing side quests in beer now?
Hop BroIt really is. Rice can keep the body from getting heavy, and that helps the seven-hop lineup stand out, from Citra and Mosaic to Comet.
MugiSeven hops and still refreshing? That is wild. And with an easy 5.0% ABV, I could happily keep sipping.
Hop BroThe packaging is solid too. It comes in 15L kegs and 330ml bottles, so bars and bottle shops can both get in on it, and now I want one.
MugiSame here, completely. I am officially in a pour me a glass mood now, so let’s go chase down Lucky NUMBER.
