Canal brewing adds four FLORA FARMENTATION cans and refreshes tap list
Canal brewing in Oimachi announced four new cans from FLORA FARMENTATION, including the NOMCRAFT Brewing collaboration Korpokkur. The tap list also features Canal brewing house beers and a wide range of collaborations.
Hop BroToday's topic is Canal brewing's new drop. Their Oimachi spot just brought in four FLORA FARMENTATION cans, and the taps got a full refresh too.
MugiWait, four cans at once!? That's the kind of fridge lineup that makes me freeze up. Which one jumps out first?
Hop BroThe cans feel like FLORA's starting lineup. Heinzel is a Koelsh Style Ale, Dekacorn Tawaki is a Session IPA, Korpokkur is a Saison w/Spruce Tip, and Constancia is a Mexican Amber Lager.
MugiHold on, what is Spruce Tip!? And saison sounds like some kind of seasonal superhero!
Hop BroIn Korpokkur, it's fresh spruce shoots from Akaezomatsu, which add a foresty kind of brightness. Saison is a light, dry beer style, so basically it's built for hot-weather easy drinking.
MugiNo way, drinking the forest somehow turns into 'super crisp' and 'goes down like water'? That's dangerous summer magic.
Hop BroAnd Korpokkur is a NOMCRAFT collab, which makes it even better. You get that spruce-tip character riding on a light saison, so it's distinctive without getting heavy.
MugiThe cans are already strong, and now you're telling me the tap list is stacked? That's how a standing bar turns into an all-night problem. What's pouring?
Hop BroAlongside Canal's C and C w/pineapple, it's basically a tasting-flight paradise. You've got Oldnew Downtown, Daylight Moon, Midnight Sun, EMERIUM KOLSCH, try, and even Peanut Butter Po-Taro Nitro ver, so the range goes from yuzu and citrus to fruit and porter.
MugiWhat even is that, the flavor range is wild! Pineapple and then peanut butter? My mouth is hosting a festival.
Hop BroAnd it's a small standing beer bar within walking distance of Oimachi Station, which is perfect for bouncing between takeaway cans and draft. They also flagged August 25 for Shanti Curry, September 19 for a Cycad brewing Tap Take Over, and November 28 for a MAHOWBREW Tap Take Over.
MugiI've decided, I want a glass now! I'll start with Korpokkur, and you can stand there making a serious face over C w/pineapple versus Po-Taro.
Hop BroThat's honestly the ideal first-round plan. I want to check Korpokkur's cooling snap first, then hit C w/pineapple, and finish with Po-Taro Nitro.
