Hop BroGreat Dane Brewing’s YUZU WHEAT is back. The Akiu taproom is serving the yuzu wheat beer on draft again.
MugiWait, what does a yuzu wheat taste like? Is it different from just putting lemon in regular beer?
Hop BroThe point is that the yuzu aroma comes through gently, while the wheat beer has that soft malt character. It’s not the kind of beer where bitterness jumps to the front; it’s smooth and easy to drink.
MugiI get it! But back on tap sounds kind of like a game boss returning, so it feels strong.
Hop BroThe wording is pretty dramatic, but basically it means it’s back as draft beer. The news is that it’s available again at Great Dane Brewing’s Akiu location.
MugiOh wow, and they started in 1994. A brewery from the U.S. being in Miyagi is kind of romantic!
Hop BroExactly. It started in Madison, Wisconsin, and in Japan it has a base in Akiu, Taihaku Ward, Sendai City. And because the brewery and restaurant are in one place, it’s great for enjoying beer fresh on the spot.
MugiSo you can drink beer and even get a brewery-tour vibe at the same time? That’s basically sightseeing and day drinking rolled into one!
Hop BroExactly. And since the restaurant serves up to 16 kinds of beer, you can taste your way through the lineup with YUZU WHEAT as a centerpiece.
MugiWow, it sounds perfect with food from Tohoku and Miyagi! I already want to toast with a yuzu pour right now!
Hop BroRight? Yuzu aroma, the air of Akiu, and a freshly poured beer. It definitely makes you want to go out for a drink today.
