MugiWhat! Two taps at once? That’s basically a public invitation to do a side-by-side!
Hop BroThis round it’s Luckphobia and Depthphobia: one’s a DDH Hazy Pale Ale, the other’s a West Coast Pilsner.
MugiHold on, DDH Hazy Pale Ale sounds like a speedrun tongue twister. What does it mean in flavor terms?
Hop BroDDH means piling on the hops, and Luckphobia has a nectar-like texture with peachy fruit and a dank green edge.
MugiWhoa, peachy fruit vibes? My hand is already reaching for a glass on its own!
Hop BroDepthphobia is a West Coast Pilsner through and through: citrus and lime, then herbs and resin, with a sharp, very dry finish.
MugiResiny aroma doesn't mean craft-glue-aisle energy, right?!
Hop BroNo panic, it’s more like pine-and-herb freshness. Plus it uses Hop Kief, so the hop outline comes through extra clearly.
MugiWhat is that! Hop Kief sounds like a final boss item. Are we sure that belongs in beer?
Hop BroTotally. Think of it as making the hop aroma hit harder, so TOTOPIA’s range shows up more clearly. Hearing that already makes me want a flight.
MugiThen it’s Depthphobia for the snap, Luckphobia for the soft landing, and two pints tonight is basically decided!
drifter’s stand in Togoshi Ginza has added two new beers from Totopia Brewery. The lineup includes Luckphobia, a DDH Hazy Pale Ale, and Depthphobia, a West Coast Pilsner. Both are built around a clear hop profile, making them a good side-by-side comparison.
- Luckphobia (DDH Hazy Pale Ale)
Made with ISimcoe, Mosaic, Riwaka, and Nelson Sauvin Hop Kief. It shows a nectar-like texture, soft sweetness, and fresh fruit character, with a peachy impression and a touch of dank green notes.
- Depthphobia (West Coast Pilsner)
Brewed with Simcoe, Cascade, Southern Cross, and NZ Cascade Hop Kief. Citrus and lime lead the aroma, followed by herbal and resinous notes. The bitterness is sharp and the finish is very dry.
As a beer pub that focuses on thoughtful drinking in a compact neighborhood setting, drifter’s stand suits this kind of lineup well. Putting a fruit-forward hazy beer next to a crisp, bitter West Coast pilsner highlights how broad Totopia’s hop expression can be. It is the sort of guest-beer pairing that invites a direct comparison rather than a single-note tasting.
