Hop BroAt Streetlight Brewing in Sapporo, Stay Nutty has arrived. It’s a porter layered with hazelnut, being offered early at the taproom, and it’s scheduled to ship nationwide from May 18.
MugiWait, a dark beer with hazelnut!? Is it sweet like a dessert?
Hop BroThat’s the interesting part. It’s not just sweet; it lets the toasty aroma of roasted malt meet the nutty scent. Since it has a porter base, you also get chocolate and coffee-like notes.
MugiOhhh! But porter is a dark beer born in London, right? This is suddenly turning into a history lesson!
Hop BroExactly. It’s an ale-style dark beer, and one of its charms is that it’s surprisingly easy to drink when chilled. With this 5.0% ABV, it has solid flavor without being too heavy, which feels just right.
MugiI get it! When I hear that hazelnut goes with flavors like coffee and cocoa, it feels kind of dessert-like and makes me want to try it!
Hop BroAnd Streetlight Brewing’s taproom has that easygoing feel too. You can bring in food and even take cans to go, so it’s easy to drop by and try it casually.
MugiWait, kids and pets are allowed too!? The barrier to a beer bar is way lower than I thought!
Hop BroThat’s right. It’s a short trip from Sapporo Station, and being able to drink it fresh at the Sapporo taproom is a real plus.
MugiNow I’m seriously looking forward to May 18! I want to drink it at the taproom first, then chase it again once it ships nationwide!
Hop BroExactly. A nutty, aromatic pour is something I’d recommend both to people who already love dark beer and to those who might start loving it now. I’m already in the mood to drink together today.
The New “Stay Nutty” Arrives
Streetlight Brewing, located in Chuo Ward, Sapporo, Hokkaido, has released a new beer called “Stay Nutty.” It is a limited-line porter-style beer at 5.0% ABV, accented with hazelnut.
In its post, the brewery describes porter as a “dark ale-born beer from London.” It says the roasted malt brings a savory aroma, layered with notes reminiscent of coffee and cocoa, and that chilling it makes it crisp and easy to enjoy. By combining that with the aroma of hazelnut, the beer is designed to complement flavors like chocolate and coffee.
“Stay Nutty” is now being served at the taproom, and nationwide shipping is planned to begin on May 18. Streetlight Brewing’s taproom is open from 3:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. on weekdays and from 12:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. on weekends and holidays, with last orders taken 15 minutes before closing. Outside food is allowed, canned beer can be taken out, and it is also easy to visit with children or pets.
The brewery is located a short distance from Sapporo Station, making it easy to stop by while still offering the casual feel of a brewery and the atmosphere to slowly savor a drink.
