Hop BroSomething interesting popped up in Urayasu: MATSURI BREWING is featuring three guest beers from Brew Beast.
MugiWhat! Three at once? And in Urayasu? That's exactly the kind of news that makes me clear my schedule.
Hop BroThe nice part is that at MATSURI BREWING near Urayasu Station, they're available for drink-in or takeout. If you drink there, there's a 200-yen uncorking fee.
MugiWhoa! But what exactly is a single hop IPA? Krush Hour already sounds intense.
Hop BroThat means the beer spotlights one main hop variety. Krush Hour is all about tropical fruit aroma, with orange, mango, guava, plus hints of stone fruit and berries.
MugiSo it's basically a solo concert for hops! Then what is an XPA anyway? Please tell me that's not a magic spell.
Hop BroNot a spell. It stands for Extra Pale Ale. PONSHU is aromatic but easygoing: brighter than a pale ale, but lighter than an IPA.
MugiWhat is that, the best of both worlds? And it's a collab brew with Fuji-Pon's channel from Iwate? My brain is running out of glass space!
Hop BroThen Kirkas is a West Coast Pilsner, with a crisp finish, rich hop flavor, and a citrus-forward edge. Think pilsner snap with IPA-like aroma layered on top.
MugiWow, comparing all three in that festival-shrine kind of space sounds perfect. I want a full tasting flight already!
Hop BroThat's exactly the right ending. You get Brew Beast's range in one stop in Urayasu, and I want to go right now too.
