FLORA FERMENTATION Tap Takeover Announced at Beer Stand Fukuromachi in Kanazawa
A tap takeover by Shiga brewery FLORA FERMENTATION has been announced at the beer pub Beer Stand Fukuromachi in Fukuromachi, Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture. The post says, "Finally this weekend," and the official site lists "Pomona" and "Siren" as featured beers.
Hop BroThe tap takeover announced at Beer Stand Fukuromachi in Kanazawa is pretty exciting, right? Just having Shiga's FLORA FERMENTATION coming makes the weekend plans instantly turn beer-focused.
MugiWhoa! Is a tap takeover that special? It feels like the bar's taps are being hijacked, kind of like an incident!
Hop BroBasically, yes. This time it's like a FLORA FERMENTATION feature, and the appeal is being able to drink through the personality of one brewery all at once.
MugiHuh, FLORA FERMENTATION sounds stylish. What kind of beer is this "agriculture and fermentation" thing?
Hop BroThat's exactly what the brewery says on its official site: it's a Shiga brewery aiming for beer woven from agriculture and fermentation. It feels like soil character and ingredient expression are built into the design, not just the aroma.
MugiWhat is that! Then what's the first one, Pomona, like? The name already sounds like a fruit fairy!
Hop BroPomona is a Belgian Wit / Kabosu, a 5.5% light-bodied beer made with kabosu from Shiga Prefecture. The coriander spice overlaps with citrus freshness, and the bitterness is restrained, so it's perfect for a first beer.
MugiWhoa, if it's good as a first beer, I feel safe! But when you say wit, it sounds a little airy and gentle.
Hop BroWhat I want to drink after that is Siren. It's a West Coast IPA at 7.0%, with Cascade, Chinook, Citra, and Mosaic bringing grapefruit- and pine-like aromas straight through.
MugiWhoa, that's like a four-hop platter! Just the aroma alone would make my hand shake while holding the glass...
Hop BroAnd because it has a firm bitterness and a dry finish, it should hit hard for IPA fans. Starting gently with Pomona and then closing crisply with Siren makes for a beautiful flow.
MugiNice, nice! I want to head straight to Kanazawa this weekend! If I compare them at Beer Stand Fukuromachi, I feel like I can understand FLORA FERMENTATION's world in a single night!
Hop BroExactly, it's perfect for a night of tasting side by side. Start with Pomona and then get swept away by Siren's wave, and you'll end up wanting one more.
