Beer Inn Marika Oimachi Taps Sankaku × AGARIHAMA 'ROUTE 58'
At Beer Inn Marika Oimachi, a beer pub in Oimachi, Tokyo, the collaboration beer 'ROUTE 58 (Botanical Saison)' from Sankaku Beer Works and AGARIHAMA BREWERY was featured. Built around the idea of linking Kagoshima and Okinawa, it is a glass aimed at a springlike aroma and a light, easy-drinking finish.
Hop BroToday's star is the tapping of ROUTE 58. The Sankaku Beer Works and AGARIHAMA BREWERY collaboration showed up at Beer Inn Marika Oimachi, and that's not something you want to miss.
MugiWait, Route 58 as in the road?! And just hearing collaboration beer already has my appetite backed up in traffic!
Hop BroExactly. The idea is the story of Route 58 linking Kagoshima and Okinawa. Crossing breweries to connect the image of each place is the romance of craft beer.
MugiWhoa, what's a Botanical Saison? Is that like a plant salad? The beer name is suddenly way too stylish and I'm falling behind!
Hop BroRoughly speaking, it's a saison with herbal, botanical nuances. At ABV 5.0%, it's designed to be light and easy to drink, so it's perfect for spring.
MugiNice, sounds easy to drink! And with ingredients like shell ginger leaves and roselle, I could practically feel a tropical breeze the moment I heard it!
Hop BroThat's the interesting part: bright aroma, gentle spice, a light herb-derived bitterness, and a crisp acidity. It still has that dry saison character, so it goes down easily.
MugiWhat a win! And the shop's recommendation being spring vermicelli salad is so good, like making beer eat spring!
Hop BroThe other partner is clams steamed in sake. When the gentle saltiness and seafood savoriness meet the herbal saison character, it becomes a seriously strong food-pairing beer.
MugiNice, being able to drop by casually and drink something like this is unfair! Ending with As always, Marika today too makes me want to head to Oimachi right now!
Hop BroExactly, it's one to watch in Higashi-Oi, Shinagawa Ward, Tokyo. For guest beers like this, the right move is to drink them the day you find them.
MugiYep, decision made. I'm toasting my first glass with ROUTE 58 and those springlike aromas!
