Hop BroToday’s topic is the guest beer for March 10! OBINA’s keg has been tapped at Shiokaze Blue Lab Brewery / Shiokaze in Nobuto, Chiba.
MugiWait, OBINA at Shiokaze? That’s an insanely strong combo!
Hop BroThis time’s star is COMM Deluxe IPA. It’s a West Coast IPA, and the alcohol content is 7.0%.
MugiWhat is that! I’ve heard the name West Coast IPA, but how is it different from a regular IPA?
Hop BroPut simply, the point is its crispness and bitterness design. It builds aroma with Citra / Galaxy / Riwaka / Nelson Sauvin, while keeping the beer from turning overly sweet.
MugiThose hop names sound like a spell! And now it says LAX Saturated yeast, and my brain is turning into beer foam!
Hop BroThat part matters. The yeast is the behind-the-scenes player that lifts the aroma, bringing out the citrus and white grape notes from the hops while snapping the finish clean.
MugiWow, so it’s bright gold with a slight amber tint, and just the description clean and smooth is already making my throat react!
Hop BroOn top of that, the layered notes of citrus peel, white grape, and passion fruit make it feel very current by balancing brightness and sharp finish.
MugiCheck the taps at the counter, and if you find it, order right away. Certified as a beer I want to drink now!
Hop BroDecided, then tonight it’s straight to the guest tap at Shiokaze. Let’s chase the keg opening together!
