MugiWow! Changing a standard beer takes courage, and calling it an IPA you want to drink now makes me curious!
Hop BroThis time it's being reintroduced as a West Coast IPA, with clear-edged bitterness and crispness taking center stage.
MugiWhat! Does IBU 58 mean that a higher number is really bitter?
Hop BroExactly. It's a rough guide to bitterness. This one has firm hop-derived bitterness and a sharper finish.
MugiI see! And the hops are mosaic / simcoe and so on, which sound strong just from the names...!
Hop BroWith mosaic, simcoe, columbus, and cascade, it's designed to spread from crushed pine into citrus and tropical notes.
MugiWhat, it gives off that much aroma!? And 2.7 volumes means they really cared about the carbonation too.
Hop BroYeah. With pilsener and caramel pils for the malt, and West Coast Ale yeast, they built a structure that really prioritizes drinkability.
MugiThen I want to pair it with hamburgers or BBQ! If it's especially good with sausage, that's the kind of beer that makes me want one right now!
Hop BroIt also carries the spirit of the brewery, which was renovated from an old nursery school, and what I like most is that it's a refined take on a standard beer.
MugiYeah, even without a flashy new release, it's exciting! I want to taste that clear-edged bitterness right now too!
Nomcraft Brewing announced on Instagram that it has renewed its core beer, "Nomcraft IPA." In the post, the brewery says it kept its feelings for the previous version, but remade the beer as the IPA current Nomcraft wants to express.
The new "Nomcraft IPA" is a West Coast IPA. It has an alcohol by volume of 6.5%, an IBU of 58, and carbonation of 2.7 volumes. The hops are mosaic / simcoe / columbus / cascade, the malts are pilsener / caramel pils, and the yeast is West Coast Ale. The tasting notes listed crushed pine, citrus, tropical, and the food pairings were hamburger, BBQ, sausage.
Nomcraft Brewing is a brewery working on "town development through craft beer" by renovating a former nursery school in Aridagawa Town, Arida District, Wakayama Prefecture. Its official website says it is an international team centered on newcomers, pursuing "more delicious craft beer" while keeping drinkability as its core. This renewal can also be seen as a beer that reflects that stance in its standard IPA.
Rather than a flashy new release, this is news about refining an existing standard to fit the present. For longtime fans too, it is the kind of beer that makes you want to check again the clear-edged bitterness of a West Coast IPA and the way its hop aroma comes through.
