BLACK TIDE BREWING - SENDAI adds two new beers: Little Lychee and Sunday Funday
BLACK TIDE BREWING - SENDAI has introduced two new beers: the summer-friendly GOSE “Little Lychee” and the DDH Hazy IPA “Sunday Funday.” Both are already available in cans, and draft service may follow by the weekend.
Hop BroToday’s topic is BLACK TIDE BREWING - SENDAI. They’ve announced two new beers from Kokubuncho in Sendai: “Little Lychee” and “Sunday Funday.”
MugiWhat! Two new releases already sounds exciting, and those names are unfairly catchy. What kind of beers are they?
Hop BroFirst up, “Little Lychee” is a GOSE-style beer made with Kesennuma salt and lychee. It’s built for summer, with a pleasant tartness and a clean salty finish.
MugiHold on, GOSE-style beer? What is that supposed to mean? Beer with salt? Is this secretly a sports drink in disguise?
Hop BroIn simple terms, it’s a tart and lightly salty beer. Add that soft lychee fruit note, and it becomes super easy to reach for on a hot day.
MugiOhhh, so the lychee fruit character keeps it from being just salty. That actually sounds like something I’d want by the beach.
Hop BroThen there’s “Sunday Funday,” a DDH Hazy IPA brewed with Citra, Mosaic, and ADHA1631. It should bring tropical aromas with a solid dank edge.
MugiHere we go again, full geek mode! DDH, hazy, dank... are you explaining beer or summoning something?
Hop BroDDH basically means extra-loaded hopping for a bigger aroma punch. Hazy means juicy and cloudy, and dank is that deep grassy, resin-like hop character.
MugiOkay, so tropical and dank means juicy fruit vibes first, then a more grown-up hop kick after that. That sounds dangerously interesting.
MugiAnd can sales already started, right? Plus both might be on draft this weekend? That makes me want a side-by-side tasting immediately.
Hop BroExactly, these are two totally different pours. Putting Little Lychee and Sunday Funday side by side in the taproom sounds perfect, and now I absolutely want both.
BLACK TIDE BREWING - SENDAI in Kokubuncho, Aoba Ward, Sendai, has introduced two new beers: the GOSE-style Little Lychee and the DDH Hazy IPA Sunday Funday. The pair highlights two very different directions in one release, making it easy to compare bright acidity against hop-driven haze.
Little Lychee is brewed with Kesennuma salt and lychee. In the post, it is described as a refreshing beer with a clean sour edge and a salty finish. That balance should make it an easy pick for warm weather, especially for drinkers who enjoy a light, tart, fruit-accented sour beer.
Sunday Funday uses Citra, Mosaic, and ADHA1631 hops. BLACK TIDE describes it as tropical and dank, pointing to a juicy hazy IPA with a firmer hop presence. For IPA fans, this is the more assertive half of the release, with enough hop character to stand out immediately.
According to the post, both beers are already on sale in cans, and draft versions may line up by the weekend. For anyone heading to Sendai's Kokubuncho area, the taproom offers a straightforward place to sample two fresh releases side by side and see how differently they drink.
