Sekimachi Cellar Announces a New Uchu Brewing Arrival, Introducing OTAKU SMOOTHIE SOUR ALE
The beer pub Sekimachi Cellar in Nerima, Tokyo announced a new arrival from Uchu Brewing on Instagram. In this post, it introduced "OTAKU -SMOOTHIE SOUR ALE-" and also mentioned a recipe rebuild using pineapple, coconut, and orange.
Hop BroA new shipment from Uchu Brewing has arrived at Sekimachi Cellar. This time's headliner is "OTAKU -SMOOTHIE SOUR ALE-" - the name alone already has a lot of playful energy.
MugiWhat, a beer called OTAKU? Somehow that makes it feel familiar! But a smoothie sour ale? It sounds delicious, but I can't picture it at all.
Hop BroThat's the interesting part. The style is SMOOTHIE SOUR ALE. It often uses a lot of fruit to create a thick texture and tart sweetness.
MugiA thick texture? Beer that feels like a drinkable dessert? My brain is struggling to keep up!
Hop BroThis "OTAKU" uses pineapple, coconut, and orange, and it's finished with Jamaican dark rum. When fruity notes are layered with the depth of rum, the tropical character really comes through.
MugiWhat is that?! It's a tropical drink! Pineapple, coconut, and orange - I can practically see the ocean, and I can even hear the BGM in my head!
Hop BroAnd the post also says they switched to a new pineapple lot and reconstructed the recipe. Adjustments like that are what make the same beer name show a completely different face.
MugiWait, so even with the same name the contents evolve? That's basically a beer update release!
Hop BroAnd Sekimachi Cellar's strengths matter here too. You can quickly have a drink at the first-floor kaku-uchi counter, or enjoy it on the second-floor terrace right there on the spot. They also keep more than 200 varieties in stock, so a limited arrival like this really stands out.
MugiWow. Being able to drink it right after buying it is amazing. Grabbing the limited OTAKU and heading straight to the kaku-uchi for a glass sounds like pure happiness!
Hop BroWith an ABV of 5.0%, it's nice that you don't have to brace yourself just because the appearance is so striking. If you follow how it changes with temperature, the fruitiness and rum nuances should gradually come into focus.
MugiWhoa, I want to drink it right now! If I spot OTAKU at Sekimachi Cellar, I'm definitely going to savor it in a glass first, then go for another one right after!

Sekimachi Cellar is known for its relaxed first-floor kaku-uchi counter, where you can enjoy a drink casually, as well as a second-floor terrace where you can drink what you buy on the spot. The shop carries more than 200 types of craft beer from breweries all over Japan, and the refrigerator lineup is updated regularly.

According to the post, OTAKU is a beer that switched to a new batch of pineapple and completely rebuilt the recipe.

It is one to pick up with expectations of tart sweetness, tropical character, and the thick mouthfeel typical of a SMOOTHIE SOUR ALE.
This is a notable arrival not only for Uchu Brewing fans, but also for anyone who wants to try a distinctive sour at Sekimachi Cellar's kaku-uchi.
