Hop BroAt Bakushu Shokudo 3F-22 in Sendai's Futamachi, today's guest tap is Kokuto Tripel.
MugiWhat!? You mean that sweet brown sugar? They put brown sugar in beer!?
Hop BroExactly. It's brewed by Beer Hearn, and the fun part is that it's made as a Belgian-style tripel.
MugiWhat is that even supposed to mean? The name alone sounds scary. What's a tripel?
Hop BroIt's a strong abbey-style ale with floral aroma and rich body, but it still drinks surprisingly clean. This one sits at 9.5% ABV too.
Mugi9.5%!? That's the kind of number that sneaks up on you. And you're saying the finish stays light? That's unfair.
Hop BroThat's the trick. Pure brown sugar from Amami brings a roasted note like fried sweets plus a honey-like richness. The star is really the toasty brown sugar aroma.
MugiNo way, that's like a Japanese snack and a Belgian beer took over the same glass! And if it's perfect with stews, my stomach is already voting yes.
Hop BroBakushu Shokudo 3F-22 is known for herb- and spice-driven dishes, so that sweetness and malt depth have something solid to lean on. Total hidden beer pub energy.
MugiI'm done for, I want it now. Tonight has to be Kokuto Tripel with stew and a very slow, very happy drink.
