Hop BroI’ve got a good one today: Summer Lager release from Minoh Brewery, going on sale at 5:00 PM on August 22 through their official online shop.
MugiWait, what! summer lager already sounds like post-shower perfection. What does it taste like?
Hop BroThey packed it with American hops, so it’s big citrus aroma up front, but the finish stays clean like a proper lager.
MugiHold on, dry hopping sounds like you left hops out on the balcony to crisp up!
Hop BroNot quite. It means adding hops after fermentation to boost aroma, basically a late aroma boost for the beer.
MugiOhhh! So you get that fresh citrus pop like grapefruit and orange wafting out of the glass?
Hop BroExactly, and there’s a tropical edge too. They also use rice, which helps give it a lighter body and a crisp dry finish.
MugiRice too? That’s the secret sidekick doing all the cleanup work in the flavor!
Hop BroOnline sales start first, but their WAREHOUSE shop is promoting it too, and it should be tapping gradually at bars and shops this weekend.
MugiI fully want this now. It sounds like a late-summer savior in a glass.
Hop BroServe it ice cold and that aroma-plus-crispness combo makes it a perfect first pint kind of beer.
MugiThen it’s settled. I’m joining the Summer Lager search party, and the moment we find it, we’re drinking.
