MugiWhoa, a collab beer already sounds delicious! What style is it?
Hop BroIt's a Milky Hazy IPA, with 6.5% ABV. It's a little luxe, with that soft, hazy character plus a milky touch.
MugiMilky? Does it actually have milk in it? Is that really beer?!
Hop BroNot milk itself, but a design that suggests a lactose-like sweetness and smoothness. Then tropical aromatics come in, and while the mouthfeel is gentle, it still has proper IPA bitterness.
MugiOhhh! So it's got a two-step move: soft on the front, then it hits with bitterness at the end!
Hop BroExactly. And the post even suggested food pairings, recommending bamboo shoots and snap peas stir-fried with oyster sauce and Chinese-style gatsu.
MugiWhat is that, the kind of thing that makes you hungry while you're drinking? Chinese-style gatsu is that chewy stomach dish, right?
Hop BroThat's right. The Hazy IPA's juiciness and bitterness go well with the green brightness of spring vegetables and the richness of gatsu. It's a pairing that makes the food feel like a star too.
MugiAnd if it's easy to drop in near the Higashi-Oi station, that's perfect! It makes me want to grab a drink with that "Today too, our usual Marika." feeling.
Hop BroYeah, it's great that you can enjoy the brewery background and the food suggestions together. This definitely makes me want to check out Heaven's Age and add it to the list for my next drink.
MugiDeal! Tonight it's a drink in Oimachi, and I'm going after the oyster stir-fry too!
