Yellow Beer Works Bunka-dori to sell 'Menkyo Hennou!? HAZY IPA' on June 9
Yellow Beer Works Bunka-dori in Fukushima City will start selling 'Menkyo Hennou!? HAZY IPA', a 5% ABV Hazy IPA tied to the film 'Menkyo Hennou!?', at 2:00 p.m. on June 9. The beer will be sold in cans only and is also planned for several partner stores.
Hop BroBig news: Yellow Beer Works Bunka-dori is launching the movie collab beer 免許返納!? HAZY IPA on June 9 at 2 PM.
MugiWait, a movie tie-in beer? That title sounds like it took a sharp turn at full speed!
Hop BroAnd the partner film is 免許返納!?, a Fukushima-connected movie starring Hiroshi Tachi. Fukushima City's Skyline road was used as a filming location too.
MugiWhoa! So you can basically drink a local story. And 免許返納!? HAZY IPA is such a wild name I'd totally double-take at the shelf.
Hop BroThe style is Hazy IPA, and it's 5% ABV. That usually means a softer feel and lots of aroma from dry hopping.
MugiHold on, dry hopping just crashed into the conversation. We're not talking about crunching on dried hops like snacks, right?
Hop BroNope, it's basically an aroma-building step. Brewers add hops during or after fermentation so the beer gets fragrant without leaning too hard on bitterness.
MugiGot it! And this release is cans only, right? I kind of love that I can take the hype home with me.
Hop BroYep, and it's not just the pub. Corasse Fukushima plus Michi-no-Eki Fukushima, Nihonbashi Fukushima-kan MIDETTE, and Ichii are all on the list, with more stores possibly coming.
MugiThat makes the June 9, 2 PM launch even better. The movie opens on June 19, so you get the beer before the film!
Hop BroExactly. As a pre-movie pour, this is pretty perfect. I'd grab one and get in the road-movie mood early.
MugiThen it's settled. Let's secure those cans before showtime, because now I absolutely want to drink this.
