MugiWhoa, beer with yuzu? I’m already curious about that bright citrus aroma!
Hop BroIt is built on a Belgian-style saison and finished with yuzu juice, making it crisp, dry, and refreshing.
MugiWhat exactly is a saison? Is it basically beer’s seasonal cousin?
Hop BroClose! Saison has roots as a farm-season beer, and it is known for lively spicy character and easy drinkability.
MugiYuzu plus spice and fruitiness? That sounds like a party in my mouth!
Hop BroIt is 4.5% ABV with 21 IBU. IBU measures bitterness, and this should be bitterness made for food.
MugiSo IBU is a bitterness meter! Mine is more like instant facial-expression science.
Hop BroTry it with the Okinawan-style meat tofu. The yuzu brightness should cut through sweet-savory richness beautifully.
MugiWith seafood, vegetables, and meat dishes too, just one beer sounds risky already!
Hop BroThey also pour Harvestmoon Pilsner, Schwarz, and Pale Ale on draft, so a style-by-style tasting flight would be fun.
