Hop BroToday’s highlight is the new tapping of Nerutora-san. At WORLD BEER&DINING MIHAMA BASE in Makuhari, a NEKOBEER beer has come on tap.
MugiWhoa, in Makuhari!? So that craft beer specialty shop does takeaway too?
Hop BroIt does. And this DDH West Coast IPA is 6.5% ABV, with a clear, crisp profile and beautifully defined hop character.
MugiDDH, what's that, a spell!? What does hop character even taste like?
Hop BroRoughly speaking, it's a method that really boosts the dry hopping to layer in aroma. This one stars Nelson Sauvin and Citra, balancing bitterness and aroma.
MugiWow! Just hearing citrus aroma makes me want to drink it! And it even has Citra Cryo in it, sounds serious!
Hop BroExactly. Citra Cryo is like concentrated aroma, and the mouthfeel stays clean. The citrus aroma comes wafting out, and it finishes nicely.
MugiThen it sounds like it'd go well with food too! Being a great beer with meals makes it pretty versatile, doesn't it?
Hop BroExactly. The introduction at Mihama Base also says it's good as your first pint or as a closer, and the fact that it doesn't clash with too many dishes is a big plus.
MugiAnd the draft list today ranges from Hazy IPA to bitter ales, so it's hard to choose... Being able to pick based on today's mood is the best!
Hop BroRight? But today let's start with 'Nerutora-san.' If someone says a beer I want to drink in Makuhari, I'd want to tilt my glass too.

This “Nerutora-san” is a DDH West Coast IPA from Fukuoka’s NEKOBEER. At 6.5% ABV, it is a clear IPA that uses plenty of hops, centered on Nelson Sauvin and Citra.

Its defining feature is the fresh citrus aroma that drifts out and the clean finish.
