Hop BroOn September 17, The Beer Shop Hirakata city will tap Minoh Beer’s Coffee IPA. That’s one I really want to try.
MugiWhat? Coffee and IPA? Is that a meeting of two bitter flavors? My mouth might need a suit and tie!
Hop BroThat’s the fun part. It’s a collaboration with Takamura Coffee, using freshly roasted coffee beans to add a toasty aroma to the IPA.
MugiNo way! Won’t the IPA bitterness and coffee bitterness cause a bitterness traffic jam?
Hop BroDifferent bitterness has different character. Hops can feel citrusy or grassy, while coffee tastes roasty. It’s really about layers of bitterness.
MugiLayers... so bitterness wears outfits too. Hearing that coffee aroma rises from the glass makes it sound much more approachable!
Hop BroAnd the firm bitterness reportedly lingers after each sip. The aroma draws you in, then the finish lands: coffee meets IPA.
MugiIf my palate gets left behind in that bitter meeting, what else is on tap? I need an emergency beer option!
Hop BroYou’re covered: Coronado’s Orange Avenue Wit, Hirakata Beer’s Session Citra White, and Sankt Gallen’s Pineapple Ale are available too.
MugiI’ll start fruity and work up to the Coffee IPA! And September 17 also has Arisa Nights happening, right?
Hop BroExactly—15:00 to 23:00 at Hirakata Sun Plaza Building 3, room 306. Let’s enjoy draft beer with the staff and toast with something roasty.
MugiDeal! I’ll sniff the aroma first, then try those bitter layers. I want that Coffee IPA!
