Hop BroAnybrew in Nakamozu, Osaka has tapped Hansharo Beer’s new CROSS & FUSION IPA. That is a lineup worth watching.
MugiWhat?! That name sounds like a fusion robot! What is this limited Hansharo release like?
Hop BroIt combines the dry, sharp finish of a West Coast IPA with the soft hop character of a Hazy IPA: a Contemporary West Coast IPA.
MugiNo way! Aren’t West Coast and Hazy IPA rivals? What does dry and sharp actually mean?
Hop BroSimply put, dry means it finishes crisp instead of overly sweet. Add soft, fruity hop aromas and you get crispness with aroma.
MugiOoh, crisp to drink but overflowing with aroma? My nose is moving into a hop field! So it is two IPA styles fused together!
Hop BroExactly. The taps also include NOVORU BREWING’s amber ale Kureru and the three-way collaboration Many Hands, One Coast.
MugiA three-way collaboration?! Paint Pallet Brewing, Hibino Beer, and Anybrew—that is beer teamwork at its best! I need a tasting flight.
Hop BroFor autumn, there is a fresh-hop sour ale from Fujizakura Heights Beer, Moonlight IPA, and even a milk stout. The range of beer styles is huge.
MugiLager, sour, IPA, and dark beer! My promise to have only one drink has been revoked in three minutes!
Hop BroHansharo Beer’s Soun Fresh Hop is listed as a waiting keg, too. Check availability before visiting, then enjoy a nationwide beer tour in Nakamozu.
