West Coast Brewing's Hazy IPA is tapped at Tamusan


At Tamusan, the beer pub in Tomigaya, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, West Coast Brewing's Hop Fua 7% Hazy IPA has appeared as a guest tap. The post introduced it as "Now On Tap" and included comments that go into the hop design in detail.

What makes Hop Fua distinctive


This beer is a Hazy IPA built around Citra hops. According to the caption, Pecharine was chosen to create synergy with the citrus character, and Riwaka Hop Kief was also added to strengthen the grassy, dank profile.

The flavor structure is built on grapefruit-like citrus aromas, with sweet notes reminiscent of pineapple and peach, mixed berries, and a grassy impression layered on top. A gentle hop-derived bitterness lingers on the finish, making this a beer that invites you to slowly follow its aromatic layers.

What it means to drink it at Tamusan

Even in the relaxed Tomigaya area, its appeal lies in being able to enjoy guest beers with this much personality. This Hop Fua is the kind of beer you want to sip while checking the balance between its aromatic lift and bitterness, and it suits not only IPA fans but also anyone looking for hop-driven citrus character.

This is one to try at the Tamusan counter and appreciate the subtlety of West Coast Brewing's hop use.
