Hop BroThere’s news that Ise Kadoya Beer’s Neko Sanbiki is on tap at Taru Taru in Takamatsu. And it’s a Yuya Boys collaboration, too.
MugiWhoa! Three cats? And the beer name has cats in it, which is almost unfairly interesting... isn’t that cat name cheat code level?
Hop BroWhat’s inside is just as serious. The style is a 10% triple IPA, loaded up with hops for a rich, intense profile.
MugiWhat does triple mean, exactly? Three times as tasty? Three times as intoxicating? I don’t get the triple rule!
Hop BroRoughly speaking, it means the ingredients and aroma design are especially luxurious. This batch uses Vera for the first time, replacing the usual Dolcita.
MugiWhat! Are new hops really that different? It says it has a peach-like aroma, but can beer really taste like peach? I can’t picture peach-like aroma at all!
Hop BroIt can, actually. Vera tends to bring out a refreshing fruitiness, and on top of that you get an image of a peach-like aroma.
MugiOhhh! And what is CATS? It sounds like a cat organization, but does hop CATS really exist?
Hop BroIt does. It’s called the CATS lineup because it uses Mosaic, Citra, Amarillo, Talus, and Strata, layering aroma and flavor.
MugiWow, so it’s tropical and packed with hops. Even at 10%, if it’s smooth, isn’t that a little dangerous? It’s scary when it goes down too easily!
Hop BroThat’s part of the appeal. Taru Taru has taps visible from outside, so it’s easy to drop in for a quick one, which makes this cat-themed IPA easy to try.
MugiIf I found this in Takamatsu, I’d have to go! Today I want to toast with a cat IPA at the wooden counter, or just grab one out front!
