Hop BroToday’s topic is Hibinobeer Craft Beer Kitchen & Store in Sakaihigashi, where they pre-opened event beers for July 31. The lineup has 12 taps, and it’s a seriously stacked board.
MugiWhat! Twelve taps total sounds like a festival! And “pre-opened” means you get to drink them a little before the actual event?
Hop BroExactly, it’s basically an early debut. They’ve got U.B.P Brewery’s Kickoff Pils, Get Goal!, and Counter Attack!, so even the names feel like a match is starting.
MugiNo way, those are straight-up sports commentator names! I’m into it. But when people start listing pilsner, hazy IPA, and saison, I feel like I’ve wandered into a spellbook.
Hop BroThe fun part here is really comparing beer styles. Pilsner is crisp and clean, hazy IPA is juicy, and saison gives off ester-driven aromas from the yeast.
MugiWhoa, hold on. What even is an ester? That suddenly sounded like chemistry class. We’re still talking about beer, right?
Hop BroRelax, it just means fruity aroma compounds. Sometimes you get banana-like or pear-like notes. And this lineup swings wide with Strawberry Weizen-Golden Berry, Sour Grapefruit Cooler, and even a Sanriku oyster stout.
MugiWait, Sanriku oyster stout?! This beer universe has too much going on! And if Asahi Draft Beer Maruefu is there too, the entry point is actually friendly.
MugiScenery, For You Brew-Modern ESB, Many Hands, One Coast... I want to drink them by name alone. Then you add waiting kegs like BEER! WINNER and Saihaku, and I’m already being pulled toward Sakaihigashi.
Hop BroThat’s the good part: it’s casual enough for the counter or a table, and they do takeout too. For the perfect end-of-week pint, I’d start with Maruefu to reset the palate, then go after the U.B.P Brewery limited pours.
