Beer Saurus Honkawagoe Adds Four Guest IPAs from Japanese Breweries
Beer Saurus Honkawagoe is currently serving four guest beers from Gotojima Brewery, Ise Kadoya Brewery, Gora Brewery, and Ushitora Brewery. The selection ranges from a refreshing lemon session IPA to a fuller hazy double IPA.
Hop BroFor an IPA tasting crawl in Kawagoe, Beer Saurus Honkawagoe has a fascinating guest-tap lineup. You can try four breweries’ distinct personalities at once.
MugiWhoa! Four IPA-style beers on tap? I’m going to become a very happy lost customer deciding where to start!
Hop BroFor your first glass, try Okogashima Brewery’s Lemon IPA Session. Its citrus freshness and easygoing body make for a bright opening sip.
MugiDoes “session” mean we all play a music session while drinking? Should I bring an instrument? It means an easy-drinking IPA?
Hop BroLeave the instruments at home! A session beer is generally lighter in strength and body, so it’s easy to enjoy multiple glasses. The lemon aroma fits that style beautifully.
MugiNice! Next I want real bitterness. Ise Kadoya Brewery’s Mr. Dank DDH already sounds powerful!
Hop BroIt’s a DDH West Coast IPA. DDH means layering dry hopping to amplify hop aroma. Expect vivid fragrance with crisp, sharp West Coast bitterness.
MugiSo it’s like adding extra hops on top of hops? The aroma must cause a traffic jam! For a hazy one, is it Gora Brewery’s Glow TDH Hazy IPA?
Hop BroExactly. Hazy IPA is loved for its cloudy look and juice-like aroma. TDH layers hops even further, often delivering full tropical-hop character.
MugiAnd to finish, Ushitoro Brewery’s Doroyoi! A Hazy Double IPA should have serious richness. With food and cocktails too, I want to head to Kawagoe and toast right now!
