Hop BroSpring news is here: Ise Kadoya Beer’s Kamikyu Brewery announced the "Spring IPA Festival 2026" 6-bottle set. They also posted on Instagram at 7:00 p.m. on March 13 that preparations were complete!
MugiWhat, a 6-bottle set!? Just the name already feels like a spring festival!
Hop BroIt’s a luxurious lineup, and it includes the neko series. Hop Nyaon 11th Fleet, Neko Sanbiki, Neko Nihiki, Neko Shika Shinjirarenai, Brain-Melting Ultra Heaven 3xIPA, and Another Cut are all in there.
MugiWhat is that! DDH, TDH, Opaque... it’s like an encrypted message, and my brain is melting first!?
Hop BroLet me break it down. DDH means the hops are used twice, TDH means they’re used three times to really boost aroma. Opaque is a style that aims for a cloudy look and a juicy, fruit-like feel.
MugiOhh! So basically it’s a "cloudy hop bomb," right? Am I saying that right!?
Hop BroPretty much! And what’s great about this set is that you can compare hazy, double, and triple styles across the lineup. Alcohol content ranges from 6.5% to 10.0%, and IBU from 35 to 88, so the spread is pretty wide.
MugiWide indeed! It’s the kind of box that lets you go on an outing from light and breezy to full-on punchy.
Hop BroAnd it’s 5,500 yen (tax included), with a booklet on enjoying craft beer. It’s a lineup that appeals both to IPA beginners and to people already deep in the hobby.
MugiThe booklet is great! Even as a beginner, I can drink while actually understanding it, not just thinking I understand it!
Hop BroGetting to experience the breadth of Ise Kadoya Beer’s hop expression in a spring edition is pretty exciting. I want to open these tonight and talk through each bottle as we drink.
MugiDeal! I’m starting with the neko series! You take Ultra Heaven, hop bro, and together let’s kick off the Spring IPA Festival!
