BLACK TIDE BREWING to Pre-Release Anniversary IPA "Second Breath" on April 11
BLACK TIDE BREWING will pre-release and sell its IPA "Second Breath," commemorating the completion of its second brewery, at Kesennuma TAP ROOM and BLACK TIDE BREWING - SENDAI starting April 11. Sales will begin on the online shop at 8:00 p.m. on April 9.
Hop BroBLACK TIDE BREWING is releasing an anniversary IPA called "Second Breath" to commemorate the completion of its second brewery. It will get an early tap at Kesennuma TAP ROOM and BLACK TIDE BREWING - SENDAI starting April 11.
MugiWhoa! Early tap means you can drink it right there on site? And the name Second Breath already sounds delicious from the start!
Hop BroYep, it will also be available at the BTB ONLINE SHOP from 8:00 p.m. on April 9, so if you can't wait, that's an option too. Whether you drink it in Kesennuma or wait at home, either choice is right.
MugiBut isn't IPA usually bitter? Sometimes I get overpowered by the hop intensity...
Hop BroThis one has medium bitterness, so it's easy to drink too. It's 6.5% ABV, so it's nicely substantial without being too heavy.
MugiI see, then I'm curious about the malt too! Hearing Pilsner base makes it sound like a very serious beer, but what role does it play?
Hop BroWith Caramel hell and Honey malt in the mix, it's not just light; it also gets a gentle sweetness and depth. When the base is solid, the hops' character stands out too.
MugiThe hop names are confusing too! Simcoe(Cryo) and Riwaka sound like spells!
Hop BroWhat makes it interesting is how lime-like citrus and tropical notes are joined by a piney aroma. Simcoe(Cryo) gives it definition, while Southern Cross and Riwaka add brightness.
MugiOh! If it has both brightness and drinkability, it's perfect for an anniversary beer. Hearing that it's celebrating the second brewery makes me excited too!
Hop BroIt should taste even better in Kesennuma's atmosphere. If you enjoy a freshly brewed pint at the taproom, you'll probably want to go straight for the next sip.
MugiAll right, I want to toast in Kesennuma! Whether I wait until April 11 or get ahead of myself online on April 9, either way I'm getting restless because I want to drink it!
