Hop BroA new pale ale, Kamo, from OHLOY Brewing has arrived at OHLOY STORE in Takamatsu. This looks really good as an everyday beer.
MugiOh, Kamo is such a cute name! And with an ABV of 5.5%, it sounds like the kind of beer where you'd easily go for another glass!
Hop BroExactly. And the style is a classic pale ale. It's designed to prioritize balance over flashiness, so it's the kind of beer you can drink every day without getting tired of it.
MugiReally! When I hear pale ale, I think of bitterness, but what do you mean by not getting tired of it?
Hop BroThat's the interesting part. It uses moderately malty barley and Simcoe and Citra hops. It keeps only the core of the citrus character and refreshing bitterness.
MugiI see! But isn't more hops always better? No dry hopping sounds a little wasteful, doesn't it?
Hop BroNot at all. That's what makes it feel more expert. By deliberately not adding aroma later, it lets the hot-side aroma shine clearly, which gives it a very defined outline.
MugiHot side sounds like a science class all of a sudden! So basically, it's the process of refining the aroma?
Hop BroExactly. And because it uses a Kölsch-type yeast and is fermented slowly at a low temperature, it comes together with a clean finish.
MugiI get it, and it seems like it would pair well with food too! If I were drinking it at OHLOY STORE, I'd want to take my time and taste things like the malt depth.
Hop BroRight, this is truly a daily companion beer. Mugi, we've been talking so much that I'm already thirsty. I want to go toast with Kamo right now.
MugiYeah, that's settled then! Let's go have a drink at OHLOY STORE and see what makes this classic pale ale feel so good!
