Brewery and Cheese Ino Chujiro Shoten updates Haginobeer taps, with new "novel" too
The brewpub Brewery and Cheese Ino Chujiro Shoten in Sawara, Katori City, Chiba Prefecture, has published Haginobeer's latest tap list. The lineup includes the new collaboration "novel" with mopshand beer, along with Sorachi 1984 and several distinctive IPAs from Japan and abroad.
Hop BroAt Ino Chujiro Shoten in Sawara, Katori City, Chiba Prefecture, Haginobeer's taps have been refreshed. As a brewpub you can stop by while walking around town, this is a pretty intriguing move.
MugiWhoa! Beer and cheese in Sawara? That's already a sightseeing treat. And a tap update too? That's the kind of thing that makes you stop in your tracks!
Hop BroAnd this time's highlight is the new collaboration beer "novel" with mopshand beer. It's 7.6% ABV, and it's designed to feel IPA-like when cold, then show more Belgian character as it warms.
MugiBelgian character? What's that! Don't IPA and Belgian clash in the same glass? Does it change into something else?
Hop BroExactly. The aroma changes with temperature. The finish is said to show pear and banana notes, and it's the kind of beer where fermentation-derived aromas come to the forefront.
MugiWow, even the name sounds stylish! It feels like the story keeps unfolding as you drink, like one bottle gives you two kinds of enjoyment!
Hop BroThe tap list is strong too. Along with the familiar hop character of Sorachi 1984, there's Breakside's IPA from Oregon, Nori's beer's American Pale Ale from Yamanashi, and Open air's sake yeast IPA from Hyogo, so it spans both domestic and international beers.
MugiWhat do you mean, IPA congestion! But a sake yeast IPA is like the meeting point of sake and beer - now I'm curious!
Hop BroSake yeast is yeast derived from sake, so it tends to give off a slightly fuller aroma. Here, the right way is to take your time and drink it with food, and the pairing with cheese dishes should be especially promising.
MugiAnd they're open from Wednesday through Saturday, and on Saturday they'll have "novel" on tap, right? Then walking around the streets of Sawara and ending with a drink sounds perfect!
Hop BroYeah, it's a place that pairs beautifully with the historic streetscape, and it's a great spot for getting a sense of where Haginobeer stands now. Today I already feel like having a drink with cheese.
MugiSame here! If you stroll through Sawara and then compare the taps, I might never want to go home~!
