Craftbeer Sloth House adds two plum-and-peach new taps
Craftbeer Sloth House / Sloth House in Tsurumachi, Kohoku-ku, Yokohama, highlighted two new beers built around seasonal plum and peach. The tap list also includes a range of bitter, hoppy, tart, and sake-yeast-driven styles for side-by-side comparison.
Hop BroToday's topic is Sloth House's new tappings. Craftbeer Sloth House in Yokohama just brought in two very summery beers with plum and peach.
MugiWhat? A plum-and-peach combo? I already want to dive straight into a cold glass!
Hop BroThe stars are seasonal fruit beers: And Beer’s sumomomo is a Fruit Ale, and Minoh Beer’s Peach Weizen (early-harvest ver.) is, well, a weizen.
MugiWhoa, okay! But session ale finish and weizen yeast? Here comes Hop Bro's nerd mode again!
Hop BroSo, a lighter session ale just means it's built to be easy-drinking, not too heavy, and great for letting that plum sweetness and tartness shine.
Hop BroAnd the weizen yeast aroma is known for banana- and clove-like notes, then they layer fresh peach aroma on top of that.
MugiWhat is that even! A fruit basket with spice? This is beer, but somehow it's sounding like an entire scented produce aisle!
Hop BroWith sumomomo, Oishi Wase balance is the key. It uses Yamanashi plums with a nice sweet-tart profile. The Peach Weizen keeps sweetness restrained and aims for freshness and a crisp finish.
MugiOkay, I get it. But the article also said clear tasting contrasts. Are the other taps pretty varied too?
Hop BroThat's the strong part. Bitterness and aroma really spread out across the list: Gold Bitter, NEW Onigashima IX, Firelight, PLUM GOSE, and even a sakekasu Hazy IPA are all in the mix.
Hop BroAnd it's super casual service too: plastic cups, cash only, no food from the shop, but outside food is welcome. It's an easy place to explore seasonal beer without any stiffness.
MugiThat rules! Peach first or plum first is now a serious life decision, and I already know I'd end up drinking through the whole tap list!
