MugiWhoa! Swami's IPA already sounds intense! What does it taste like?
Hop BroIt's got that crisp West Coast IPA edge, with hop-driven citrus notes, a moderate malt body, and a dry finish. It's the kind of beer IPA fans are likely to react to.
MugiWest Coast... like sea breezes? Surfing? Citrus notes in beer can really taste that orangey?
Hop BroExactly, more like lemon or grapefruit. And the tap list that day has 10 beers total, so it's a lineup that's fun to compare.
MugiWow, choosing sounds hard! From Ichiban Shibori Premium to Ishinomaki HW's Makikaze Wheat, are there dark ones too?
Hop BroThere are. Black Tide's Second Breath, Teenage's Cherry Blossom Road, and Inkhorn's Yellow Warbler are on there, and even Great Dane's Rosé IPA, which is rare outside the brewery's own stores.
MugiWhoa, that's such a wide range! Then today I should go in with the feeling of doing a tap crawl!
Hop BroExactly. The Golden Week hours are easy to use too: starting April 29 at 3:00 p.m. it's easy to stop in throughout the holiday, and last order is one hour before closing each day.
MugiI see. And there's also a Be Easy Brewing event on May 9, right? That's a really strong holiday detour spot.
Hop BroThat's right. With taps rotating and events on top of that, Amber London has a lot going on right now. All right, let's get ready for some beer comparison, and start with Swami's IPA.
