Hop BroBeer Stand Tsubamenosu in Sumiyoshi has a strawberry sour debut! It’s a particularly distinctive beer from Sankt Gallen.
MugiWhat, beer with strawberries? I’m getting a sweet beer feeling already—it sounds almost dessert-like!
Hop BroIt’s Sankt Gallen’s Whey Sour Ale Strawberry. It combines a generous sweet strawberry aroma with a bright, tangy acidity.
MugiWhat even is whey? A science-class word just appeared! What is whey, anyway?
Hop BroWhey is the liquid left from making yogurt or cheese. So this is a beer made with whey, which makes it wonderfully unusual.
MugiWow! So is the sourness like yogurt… or not? My taste buds are fermenting in confusion!
Hop BroNot quite yogurt—the tartness comes from lactic fermentation. It heads toward refreshing lemon-like acidity, for a moreish sweet-and-sour taste.
MugiGot it! Start with familiar beer, then dive into strawberry at the end. That’s like a beer tasting course!
Hop BroThat’s an excellent plan. Alongside Kirin Heartland, there’s Isekadoya Classic Pale Ale and Shiga Kogen’s Miyama Blonde and Muga Muchu—five taps in total.
MugiIt’s open Monday through Saturday, 6 p.m. to midnight, in Sumiyoshi 2-chome. I want to head to Tsubamenosu and toast with sweet tartness tonight!
