Hop BroToday I’m talking about a new tap release at the beer pub HOP MAN in Chigasaki City, Kanagawa Prefecture. Noboribetsu local beer Oni Densetsu’s Kinki Pale Ale Mosaic Single Ver. has arrived.
MugiWhoa! That Oni Densetsu name already sounds powerful! Kinki Pale Ale sounds like some kind of golden finishing move!
Hop BroThat’s a pretty good take. Since this is the Mosaic Single Ver., Mosaic hops are the star of the show.
MugiWhat even are Mosaic hops? It sounds like wallpaper, but what does it do in beer?
Hop BroSimply put, it’s a hop that brings out citrus aromas and tropical notes. Fruitiness layers on top of that, and the aroma really opens up.
MugiOhhh! Big aroma but still easy to drink sounds perfect! If it has a strong bitterness too, then it’s not just sweet and fruity!
Hop BroExactly. At 5.5% ABV and 40 IBU, it has a nice balance of drinkability and aroma. As a pale ale, it goes down smoothly but still leaves a strong impression.
MugiIBU 40 sounds a little scary just looking at the number! But when Hop Brother says it, it feels like a bitterness safety plan!
Hop BroAnd since HOP MAN apparently still has a little of the previous batch left, there might be a chance to compare them side by side.
MugiThat sounds way too fun! If I compared the Mosaic character, I’d probably make a huge fuss over the differences!
Hop BroIf you’re looking for craft beer in Chigasaki, this is one not to miss. A pint with the drinkability that Oni Densetsu is known for - it’s the kind of beer that makes you want to head straight for the tap.
MugiYep, my head is already full of Mosaic! Now I really want to raise a glass at HOP MAN!
