At Izuya Shoten, a beer pub in Nakanobu, Shinagawa Ward, Tokyo, Minoh Beer's 'Yuzu Tripel' has been tapped for paid tasting. In the post, it was introduced as a higher-alcohol version of 'Yuzu White,' and you can enjoy a pour centered on the aroma of yuzu inside the shop.
Hop BroToday we're talking about the Yuzu Tripel being tapped at Izuya Shoten in Nakanobu, Shinagawa Ward, Tokyo.
MugiWait! Izuya Shoten is a beer pub, but also a liquor store? Is that the kaku-uchi style thing?
Hop BroExactly. The nice part is that it's not just for buying, but also for tasting in the shop. This time it's available through paid tasting, so you can check out a beer you're curious about first.
MugiBut a high-alcohol version of Yuzu White sounds suddenly pretty strong! What changes in a high-alcohol version?
Hop BroBasically, it gives more body and a longer finish. It's a beer that keeps the aroma of the Yuzu White line while leaning toward a fuller, more substantial taste.
MugiOhhh! I really love the aroma of yuzu! The aroma of yuzu already makes it sound delicious before you even drink it.
Hop BroThat's the point. The appeal is how the yuzu character layers onto Minoh Beer's clean brewing. Even when the aroma is bold, it comes together nicely when the base is well made.
MugiClean sounds like it means something totally different, like laundry detergent! So you mean it has less roughness?
Hop BroThat's right. And since this time you can check it with just one pour, it's very friendly for people who are unsure about buying it.
MugiThen I want to go check out the yuzu aroma! A full-bodied pour like that makes me want it right now!
Izuya Shoten is a beer pub and craft beer liquor store in Nakanobu, Shinagawa Ward, Tokyo. It is a shop familiar to beer lovers for its in-store paid tasting, in the classic 'kaku-uchi' style. In this post, it was announced that Minoh Beer's 'Yuzu Tripel' had been tapped for paid tasting.
The post also described it as a 'high-alcohol version of Yuzu White,' presenting it as a beer that lets you enjoy the same yuzu-driven character in a more substantial, full-bodied direction. With the clean brewing typical of Minoh Beer and the aroma of yuzu layered on top, it is especially appealing for people looking for aroma-forward beers.
The appeal of Izuya Shoten is that you can enjoy this kind of limited tapping news together with the atmosphere of the shop. Since you can not only buy beer but also sample it on the spot in small amounts, the advantage is being able to check the flavor direction before choosing. As a shop where craft beer shelves and paid tastings coexist, it is the kind of place suited to people who want to confirm a beer they're curious about with 'just one first pour.'
This time, two Minoh Beer names featuring yuzu appeared. It is a tapping announcement that makes you want to check in the shop how it balances fruitiness and alcohol presence.
