DevilCraft Brewery's "Side Eye XPA" Tapped at Extra Hop in Oita
The beer pub "craft beer "Extra Hop"" on the first floor of the Okuno Hosomichi Building at 2-6-25 Chuo-machi, Oita City, updated its tap information on Instagram. It tapped DevilCraft Brewery's "Side Eye XPA" and showed a lively lineup ranging from pilsners and blood-orange beers to stout.
Hop BroAt craft beer "Extra Hop" in Chuo-machi, Oita City, they tapped DevilCraft Brewery's "Side Eye XPA." The hideaway vibe surrounded by wooden walls, plus the fact that it's always seven taps, is great too.
MugiWait, even with seven taps all the time, that much is already moving!? And what's an XPA? The X sounds kind of strong and a little scary!
Hop BroDon't worry about that. XPA is basically a hop-aromatic, refreshing style. This "Side Eye XPA" is also being presented as a pint that fits the warming season.
MugiOhh! But what does hop aroma actually taste like? Floral? Citrus-like? The kind of thing that suddenly makes you want a drink?
Hop BroExactly, that's the world we're talking about. Extra Hop has this style where the owner writes the beer descriptions himself, so even just looking over the menu is fun, and this time the glass with the shop logo was in the photo too, which really conveyed the atmosphere.
MugiWhat, the glass is the star too!? But I'm curious about the taps themselves too. What else was on?
Hop BroIn the post, they said Yokohama Bay's pilsner and Waima's blood orange had already been kicked, or were about to be kicked. It's a lineup where you can choose based on your mood, from a light lager to fruit beer.
MugiSo kicked means it's nearly gone! The word sounds kind of violent, but it really just means the beer is popular!
Hop BroExactly. And they also had Swan Lake's collab alt, the 9th cask of the anniversary beer, and karu Q's stout on the board, so it was interesting because the colors and personalities were all different.
MugiAlt, stout, blood orange... that's so much information it feels like a treasure chest of beer! And with that hideaway feel from the wooden walls, I'd be drawn in after work for sure.
Hop BroThat's exactly it. You can drop in without overthinking it, and there's fun in following what's on tap right now. Today, I think I'd use a post-work pint as an excuse and go straight for the Side Eye XPA.
MugiYeah, now I really want to go drink! I'll go for the hop-aromatic XPA, and you can go with the darker beers, hop brother. Let's toast at Extra Hop!
