Hop BroToday’s topic is that at Kitazawa Konishi in Daizawa, Setagaya, NAMACHA'n Brewing’s flagship IPA is showing up with a Kitakoni exclusive label.
MugiWait, that Nama-chan's IPA is coming back with a different label? Did the beer itself put on a disguise too?
Hop BroThe beer is OUTER RIM IPA, listed as an American IPA at 6.0% ABV, so it’s a dependable go-to kind of pour.
MugiOhh, nice! Instead of flashy-for-the-sake-of-it limited, it sounds like an easy first pick. So what does it taste like?
Hop BroIt leans on Mosaic, Citra, and Simcoe, with three-hop aromatics that come across like grapefruit and passion fruit right away.
MugiHold on, West Coast IPA sounds like a geography quiz. What does that mean in actual flavor terms?
Hop BroBasically, you get a little caramel malt sweetness up front, then a dry, snappy finish that tightens everything up and lets the bitterness land clean.
MugiWhat is that! So it throws a tropical party in your mouth and then sticks a crisp landing at the end? Chaotic. I want it.
Hop BroExactly, and it was popular on Konishi Day, so this is basically a return to the taps at the shop. Strong choice for a first beer in Shimokitazawa.
MugiEven on a night of chasing new releases, having an IPA that sets your palate straight first feels important.
Hop BroThat’s why this is the kind of beer that makes you want to start the night with this first pint.
MugiNope, that’s it, I’m ready to walk in and say OUTER RIM IPA, please. You’re coming with me.
