Hop BroWant a Beer in Motomiyamae, Utsunomiya, has updated its taps. It’s running from 3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. on April 10, and this time six distinctive beers are lined up, so it’s a really fun day for tasting side by side.
MugiWhoa! Six beers? At that rate, I’d run out of time and the place would close while I’m still choosing!
Hop BroFirst up is Hop Kotan’s Seiran / Cold IPA. It opens clean, and the pine-resin-like bitterness lingers into the finish, so it’s the kind of beer that really lands with IPA fans.
MugiPine-resin bitterness? What is that, like wood splinters? Now I’m a little scared to drink it!
Hop BroTo put it simply, it means clean, sharp bitterness. It’s cold and crisp to drink, but the hop character is clearly defined, so the flavor doesn’t get muddy. That’s what makes Cold IPA interesting.
MugiOhh! Then I’m curious about Barbaric WORKS’s Morgentau too! An Italian Pilsner means a stylish pilsner, right?
Hop BroPretty much. It has a floral aroma with green nuances, and a light malt character on top, so the aroma is bright but the finish is snappy.
MugiAnd Barbaric WORKS also has MASTER HEIR? Peach and berry sound like it’s practically juice!
Hop BroThat’s the peach-and-berry character from Mosaic hops. Since it’s an American Double IPA, it has a solid body too, and the tropical aroma makes it a beer with strong presence.
MugiWow, the collaboration with Romanchic Village sounds lovely! Five kinds of hand-squeezed citrus means the love was already heavy at the brewing stage...!
Hop BroExactly. Flesh!!! and SPECIALS are 5th-anniversary originals, and the exciting part is being able to compare a Fruits Sour Ale with a Belgian White. On top of that, THE KICHI’s Tsukihō ~Moonwalk~ is a West Coast Pilsner that puts citrus character and crisp bitterness front and center.
MugiWhoa, that lineup would make food go down easy with beer! It sounds like it would pair with bruschetta, pasta, and pizza, so now I definitely need to make a reservation and go drinking!
