Beer House Hobbit adds Nami no Oto Brewing’s Momotopia in cans, updates its Aug. 12 draft list
Beer House Hobbit, a beer pub in Hirakata, Osaka, announced a can arrival of Nami no Oto Brewing’s Momotopia. The peach-forward Wheat IPA was listed alongside six draft beers, including Kawachibankan Sour and Shiga Kogen IPA 2.03 Center of the Universe.
Hop BroToday's Beer House Hobbit update is a big one. In Hirakata they've brought in canned 'Momotopia' from Nami no Oto Brewing, and the August 12 draft list is strong too.
MugiWait, the name Momotopia already sounds delicious. Does that mean it's sweet and easy, like peachy comfort mode?
Hop BroPretty much, and it uses peaches from Awaji Island in a Wheat IPA. It has a soft hazy texture, and the hop aroma overlaps with the peach all the way through the finish.
MugiWhoa, but Wheat IPA sounds like homework. What am I even ordering, a beer or an exam question?
Hop BroIn simple terms, it's an IPA with wheat. The wheat makes it smoother and softer, while the hoppy brightness stays in place, so the peach doesn't get into a flavor fistfight.
MugiOkay, so it's peach and hops together. Soft vibes plus loud vibes in one glass. I need to meet this beer immediately.
Hop BroAnd the same day's taps are six very different pours. There's a kawachi bankan sour, Shiga Kogen IPA 2.03, Uchiwa, Session Citra White, a schwarz, and a helles.
MugiWhat is this, from tart to dark? That's dangerously kind to indecisive people. I'd spend my first pint just making eye contact with the tap list.
Hop BroThat's where the food helps. They're open through Obon too, with fried pork shoulder, Japanese-style buffalo wings, roasted seasonal vegetables, and beef steak, and they're closed Sundays while Tuesdays start at 6 p.m.
MugiPerfect, that's straight from work material. I'd start with Momotopia, then land on the helles or the schwarz at the end.
Hop BroThat plan works because I want in too. Open with the peach aroma from Momotopia, then detour into the Shiga Kogen IPA and you've basically built a full evening.
MugiThen it's settled, I want to go now. Peach to lager at Beer House Hobbit with snacks on the side sounds like the best possible detour.
