Hukuhaku Brewery's "Proust" Arrives at Fujisawa Beer Shokudo Beer Maison, Available Only in April
Fujisawa Beer Shokudo Beer Maison is introducing its April-only "Kyushu Craft Beer Fair." The guest beer is "Proust," a West Coast IPA from Hukuhaku Brewery in Fukuoka, served as a beer that balances aroma and crispness.
Hop BroAt Beer Maison in Fujisawa, the April-only fair has started. This time, Proust, a West Coast IPA from Hukuhaku Brewery in Fukuoka, is on tap.
MugiWhat! You can drink beer from Fukuoka in Fujisawa!? A Kyushu Craft Beer Fair sounds like a little trip.
Hop BroExactly, and what's interesting is that this Proust is brewed using water from Miyawaka, Fukuoka Prefecture. The water from a place can really shape a beer's character.
MugiWater can change that much!? Wait, does that mean there are days when water takes the spotlight more than hops?
Hop BroGood catch. Proust is a West Coast IPA, so hop aroma and a crisp finish are everything. It layers aromas with five kinds of hops, then finishes sharp and dry.
MugiFive kinds!? That's basically a hop traffic jam! Won't the aromas crash into each other and make a mess?
Hop BroThat's where the brewer's skill comes in. They bring it together into a deep, layered aroma that stays bright without getting messy, and it finishes clean with no off-notes. It's an IPA that's easy to keep drinking without getting tired of it.
MugiOh, wow! Having both satisfying body and drinkability is pretty much ideal. And with ABV 7.0%, it feels like the kind of beer you want to savor slowly today!
Hop BroAnd Beer Maison is especially good because you can enjoy it with food. Since there are Small 296ml and US Pint 473ml sizes, it works whether you're just trying it out or going all in.
MugiNo way, now I really want to drink it! I'd probably start with a Small, and before I know it I'd be saying, one more, please!
