MugiWhoa, two of each of three beers? That means a proper tasting lineup! What kinds of beer are inside?
Hop BroFirst is their flagship, BANK IPA: a 5.5% West Coast IPA with citrus- and pine-like hop aromas plus a crisp bitterness.
MugiPine-like aroma?! Am I supposed to chew a tree? That pine-like hop note sounds a little alarming!
Hop BroNo tree bark involved! It describes a fresh, foresty hop scent. Paired with citrus, it gives the beer its clean bitter finish.
MugiOh, nice! Then is the next one maltier? I really want to know about a beer called OBANKER.
Hop BroOBANKER is a 5.5% Altbier inspired by Düsseldorf tradition. It balances toasty malt and gentle bitterness with a crisp, dry finish.
MugiAlt sounds like a music term! Does a traditional German style mean it will be heavy and complicated?
Hop BroNot at all. “Alt” means old, referring to a classic ale-brewing tradition. It is malty yet easygoing, making it a great match for dinner.
MugiAnd then FEST BIER! Even the name feels festive. This must be an autumn-festival lager!
Hop BroExactly. This 6% Festbier has rich malt flavor, soft sweetness, and satisfying body, but its finish stays refreshingly clean alongside food.
MugiAromatic IPA, toasty OBANKER, and rich FEST BIER... six beers for 4,200 yen sounds like several perfect autumn nights!
Hop BroCraft Bank operates from a former bank building and wants beer to spark conversation. Let’s plan a cool-evening toast for the October 23 shipment.
