Hop BroToday it's about the 6th anniversary Double TTO at Sunny Day Dumpling in Kawaramachi, Osaka. The post said it opens at 3:00 p.m. on Saturday, February 28.
MugiWhat! An anniversary event with two breweries joining in at once? That's already a party!
Hop BroHNB ranges from amber lager to sour beers, and Shima Brewing goes from golden ale to mild ale, so the comparison range is ridiculously wide.
MugiWhat does "tap takeover" even mean?
Hop BroSimply put, it's a day when a specific brewery takes over the taps at a bar. And this time there's even info that HNB will open five kegs in advance, so it's pretty hot.
MugiWow. But with saison, cold IPA, and all these technical terms, my brain can't keep up!
Hop BroA saison is light and aromatic, a cold IPA is all about crispness, and a black IPA balances roasted character with hop flavor. For example, Isofue Black IPA sounds aggressive just from the name.
MugiAnd since it's a beer pub, being able to drink slowly with food is perfect. I'd want to have the Charcoal-Roasted Coffee Mild Ale after a meal!
Hop BroThey've got Hijiyama Amber Lager, Teagamot Journey IPA, and Meyer Lemon Lager too, so it's really designed for people to fully enjoy the beer.
MugiIt's decided! I'm starting with Watermelon Sour ~Suzune~, so what are you drinking, Hop bro? I want to toast right now!
