Hop BroThat's the interesting part. As a 7.0% ABV IPA, it clearly centers its design on aroma and bitterness. It's flashy, but not sloppy.
MugiWhat does layered hop aroma mean? Like a bunch of fruit coming in all at once?
Hop BroExactly. You get passion fruit, citrus, grapefruit, plus lychee and green apple. It's not a single punchy burst, but a style where fruit-like nuances stack up like layers.
MugiOhhh! So it's one of those beers that changes character every time you sip it? Sounds like there'd be a lot of fun in drinking through it!
Hop BroThat's exactly it. And the body is medium, so it doesn't rely on lightness alone; it also has a solid drinkable heft. The bitterness isn't just strong either - the description says it's high-quality bitterness.
Mugi"High-quality bitterness" sounds like the way adults talk! But if that's the case, it should satisfy bitterness lovers too.
Hop BroAnd the recommended pairings are fried chicken and shrimp toast. The carbonation and bitterness cut through the oil in fried foods, so it's a really strong match as a beer to drink with food.
