Hop BroToday's topic is that at UNDERGROUND Craft Beer Akabane in Akabane, Bird Buds and Toberu have both gone on tap at the same time.
MugiWait, two at once!? West Coast Brewing × Inkhorn Brewing already sounds intense...!
Hop BroExactly. `Bird Buds` is a Hazy IPA, and its appeal is the lush aroma and juicy character.
MugiHazy means the murky-looking kind, right? What does juicy aroma even mean in beer?
Hop BroSimply put, it brings hop-derived aromas to the front and makes the bitterness feel a little softer. Since it's a 7.0% Hazy IPA, it's perfect for a day when you want to enjoy the aroma.
MugiI see! Then `Toberu` is the complete opposite? Just seeing West Coast Triple IPA makes me feel tipsy!
Hop BroThat's right. `Toberu` has the heft of a 10.0% beer, and it's the kind you savor slowly for its bitterness and body.
MugiOh, so you start with something fluffy and aromatic, then hit it hard next!? The order of the tasting is already set, and that's so fun!
Hop BroOn top of that, there are up to 12 taps here, plus cans and bottles, so you can choose based on your mood that day. That's strong.
MugiAnd if there's food too, it's perfect... this is dangerous in Akabane. It's the kind of place where "I'll just have one" will never be enough!
Hop BroThen tonight let's start with `Bird Buds` and finish with `Toberu`. Two beers in Akabane is justice, right?
MugiYeah, now I completely want to go drink! Let's check the taps right now and raise a toast in Akabane!
