Hop BroToday’s new release news is here: NISHIE is out! It’s a collaboration between Osaka’s Derailleur Brew Works and B.M.B Brewery in Miyazaki.
MugiWhoa! A cross-prefecture collab is hot! And NISHIE sounds cute too. What does it taste like?
Hop BroThe style is Juicy Tropical Sour, with ABV 4.5 and IBU 0. It really pushes the fruit character with passion fruit and guava.
MugiWhat does IBU 0 even mean!? Hearing zero makes me nervous, like a test score!
Hop BroIBU is a measure of bitterness, so it basically means almost no hop bitterness. That makes the acidity and fruity sweetness the stars.
MugiOhhh! So it’s easy for craft newbies to get into too, like a sweet-and-sour juice-like beer?
Hop BroExactly. And the sweet orange peel adds definition, while the beer is designed for a smooth mouthfeel.
MugiThat’s a lot of info! By the way, can we buy it? I saw it releases at 11 today - should I get ready to run?
Hop BroIt was announced on Instagram, there’s online store availability too, and the goal is clearly a boundary-crossing collaboration meant to broaden the audience.
MugiIt’s decided! Let’s toast with this tonight - I want to drink a tropical sour!
Derailleur Brew Works announced the release of its collaboration beer "NISHIE" in an Instagram post. The post said, "'NISHIE' will be released today from 11:00," and also announced availability through its e-commerce site (https://derailleurbrewworks-store.com/).
The beer style is Juicy Tropical Sour. The published specs are ABV 4.5 / IBU 0 / SRM -. In addition to malt (produced in Germany), the ingredients include passion fruit puree, guava puree, and sweet orange peel, emphasizing a tropical fruit character. Both the post and the official product page describe it as having a balance of sweetness and acidity, with a smooth mouthfeel.
This batch was brewed in collaboration with B.M.B Brewery in Miyazaki. The post also features beer information creators "Yukki" and "Naomin" in a promotional context, signaling an effort to broaden interest in fruit beers and smoothie beers. Rather than being just a limited release, it stands out as a collaboration intended to widen the range of drinkers it can reach.
Derailleur Brew Works is based in Nishinari Ward, Osaka, and promotes itself as a brewery that makes beer without being bound by convention. This NISHIE release can be seen as another boundary-crossing beer that reflects that stance, one centered on fruit and sourness. It looks likely to appeal not only to existing craft beer fans, but also to people looking for a light, easy-drinking beer.
