Hop Bro15brewery in Hayama has put out its April 9 tap list. Even the headline,
MugiWhoa, really? When I hear tap list, I think of drinking at a bar, but here it's takeout only?
Hop BroExactly. They’re not doing stand-up drinking, and instead they sell it by the liter, filled up in sealable bottles, carbonated PET bottles, or screw-cap glass bottles. There’s a real charm to beer by volume.
MugiHuh, nice! So what beers are on it? Even the names sound interesting, and Bottom of the Swamp sounds kind of scary!
Hop BroThe Belgian-style Bottom of the Swamp uses plenty of wheat malt, plus orange peel, coriander, chamomile, and cloves for a complex build. On top of that, it’s blended with lime from Owase and honey from Yokosuka.
MugiThat’s way too much information for one ingredient list! But does it actually come together? When you call it a spicy design, I feel like my tongue can’t even keep up!
Hop BroThat’s what makes it interesting. The aroma is broad, and the flavor has layers. There’s also the stout, with its deep richness, and Orange Ale, which brings forward orange aroma and acidity.
MugiOh wow, that’s a huge range! Then I thought maybe there’d be something lighter too, and Wheat Land already sounds so refreshing!
Hop BroThere is. Wheat Land is wheat-forward, and it’s kept light and brisk with hops that have a white-wine-like aroma. It also uses baguettes from Miura bakery Mitsumugi, so it really shows off the brewery’s personality.
MugiBeer with baguettes in it is such a freewheeling idea! And Raw Hazy IPA uses a no-boil method, right? It’s like a science experiment!
Hop BroExactly. The Raw Ale process lets you enjoy hop aromas and bitterness reminiscent of citrus and pine needles. It also has that seaside Hayama vibe, so this is definitely one you’d want to take home and sip slowly.
MugiYeah, I’m in the mood to unseal the tap list today! If I carried one of 15brewery’s beers home and drank it on the way back, I’d be happy for sure!
15brewery, located in Horiuchi, Hayama Town, and operating as a takeout-only brewery, has announced its tap list for April 9. The post headline reads "<Moonlit Shade>". At the shop, it has suspended stand-up drinking and instead sells beer by the liter, filled to the brim into sealable bottles, carbonated PET bottles, or glass bottles with screw caps.
The lineup for the day offers a clearly varied range of flavors. The Belgian-style "Bottom of the Swamp" uses a generous amount of wheat malt and combines orange peel, coriander seed, chamomile, and cloves with lime from Owase, Mie Prefecture, and honey from Nagai in Yokosuka City, resulting in a complex and spicy design. The stout is marked by deep richness and a jet-black appearance, while the orange ale emphasizes a strong orange-derived aroma and acidity.
Listed among the wheat-forward beers, Wheat Land is a light, brisk pour made with a generous amount of wheat malt added to barley malt and balanced with hops that carry a white-wine-like aroma. Raw Hazy IPA uses a Raw Ale brewing method that skips boiling the wort, allowing you to enjoy hop aromas and bitterness reminiscent of citrus and pine needles. Both beers also use baguettes from Miura bakery Mitsumugi as part of the ingredients, adding another distinctly local touch.
Hours are from 2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. With the breezy feel that suits seaside Hayama, this is a very 15brewery-style tap list that lets you take home the character of local ingredients and homebrewed individuality as-is.
