Hop BroSusukino feels a little louder today. A Hakodate IPA just landed at Susukino Ale STAND: ozigi brewing Hakodate Mugishu Jozojo India Pale Ale.
MugiWhat! Hakodate in Susukino? That's peak Hokkaido efficiency. So this is a guest beer?
Hop BroExactly. It's in the guest beer slot, which fits a pub that brings in craft beer from all over Hokkaido.
MugiWhoa! But peach and mango aromas? This sounds like a fruit stand in the best possible way.
Hop BroThat's Mosaic hops doing the work. It gets double dry hopping, meaning hops are added after fermentation to push the aroma way up.
MugiWait, what? Hop on top of hop? Even your excitement just got dry-hopped twice!
Hop BroHonestly, that's pretty close. You get peach, mango, pear, even a fermented honey vibe, and the aroma layers stay rich while the bitterness keeps the finish neat.
MugiNice! If it's a not-too-bitter IPA, I can drink it without feeling like I'm in bitterness boot camp!
Hop BroIt also pours amber, opens with a full aroma, and has a 2022 bronze award from the JAPAN GREAT BEER AWARDS.
MugiOkay, so it's legit! And being in the basement of COCONO SUSUKINO makes it a perfect walk-in stop during a night out.
Hop BroExactly. Susukino Ale STAND is great for comparing Hokkaido beers, and honestly I want a sip now just to check that aroma-bitter balance in person.
MugiThen it's settled. I want one too, and I fully plan to win the night with that peachy, mango-like IPA!
The beer
