MugiWhat! That retro-cute name already has me interested, and “pils” sounds dangerously easy to chug!
Hop BroThat instinct is right. Haikara Pils is an Italian-style pilsner, so it drinks crisp but still gives you elegant hop aroma.
MugiWait, what is an Italian-style pilsner? It sounds like a beer wearing sunglasses!
Hop BroBasically, it is a classic pilsner with extra hop perfume. You keep the light bitterness, then get a soft floral lift on the nose.
MugiNo way! But dry hopping sounds like a fitness program for hops. What does that even mean?
Hop BroThat part matters. Dry hopping means adding hops during fermentation to boost the aroma without making it aggressively bitter.
MugiOoh, got it! And with German noble hops plus soft malt character, this sounds great as a first drink or with food.
Hop BroExactly. It also comes from a line of brewing that started with Oxbow Brewing about seven years ago, and now it has a new name and look. Serious beer, fresh outfit.
MugiThat rules! I want to go to Craft Beer 2 TAPS in Yokosuka and make this my perfect first pint, and you definitely look like you are ordering a second.
Hop BroYou caught me. That light, tidy bitterness is exactly what opens up your palate, so one before food and one with food sounds inevitable. We need this beer.
At `Craft Beer 2 TAPS`, a beer pub in Shioiri, Yokosuka, Minoh Beer’s seasonal release Hi-Cara Pils has gone on tap. The post is a straightforward tap announcement, adding a notable pilsner-style guest beer to the lineup.
According to Minoh Beer’s release notes, Hi-Cara Pils is an Italian pilsner that traces its roots back to a collaboration with Oxbow Brewing in Maine about seven years ago. The beer has been refreshed with a new name and new design, while keeping its core character intact.
