15brewery announces five-tap lineup for March 29, including Wheat Land and Raw Hazy IPA
15brewery in Hayama, Kanagawa, announced its March 29 tap list on Instagram. The brewery is operating only as a takeout-only bottle sales shop, and has prepared five beers ranging from Belgian-style, stout, and fruit beer to a wheat-forward beer and an IPA. One of the lineup items also uses baguettes from Miura Pan-ya Mitsumugi.
Hop BroHayama's 15brewery has put out its March 29 tap list. And right now it's not standing service, but fill-by-weight takeout sales.
MugiWait, it's takeout only? So it's more like drinking carefully at home, huh? That somehow feels luxurious!
Hop BroThe lineup is interesting too: five taps covering Belgian, stout, fruit beer, Wheat Land, and Raw Hazy IPA.
MugiHold on, hold on, what's a Raw Hazy IPA? It's raw, but hazy? The name alone is a traffic jam of information!
Hop BroBecause it uses the Raw Ale method and doesn't boil the wort, the aroma comes through more easily. Add hop notes of citrus and pine, plus bitterness, and it ends up being the kind of beer that has more backbone than it looks.
MugiOhhh! So Wheat Land is wheat-heavy and kind of soft and light? The name definitely sounds like it's on good terms with the bakery!
Hop BroExactly. And it even uses Mitsumugi's baguettes as part of the ingredients. On top of the wheat malt, it's finished with hops that smell like white wine, so it's pretty refreshing.
MugiBaguettes too!? It's like the line between beer and bread is all soft and fuzzy! It might fool both my stomach and my heart!
Hop BroThat's what makes 15brewery feel like 15brewery: they're good at combining local ingredients. Bottom of the Swamp has that Belgian spice character, and Orange Ale has a clearly bright fruit aroma and acidity.
MugiAnd the hours are 14:00 - 19:00, so it's nice that you can choose from early afternoon onward. Today I'd want to compare them one by one, from the light ones to the rich ones!
Hop BroIn the end, I want to finish with a truly Hayama-style beer. Let's bring home some good beer and open it slowly at home today.
MugiYeah, I'm already fully in tasting-comparison mode! I'm curious about both the wheat beers and the IPA, so this is definitely the kind of thing that makes me fidgety on the way home!
The brewery 15brewery (Fifteen Brewery) in Hayama Town, Miura District, Kanagawa Prefecture, has released its tap list for March 29. The shop is currently closed for standing service and is operating only as a fill-by-weight sales counter. Beers are served filled to the brim in sealable bottles, and carbonated plastic bottles and glass bottles with screw caps are also accepted. The brewery also notes that bottle beer is out of stock, and the latest business schedule can be checked on its blog.
Hours for the day are 14:00 - 19:00. The lineup consists of five beers with clearly distinct flavors and aromas.
- Bottom of the Swamp
- A Belgian-style beer. A complex, spicy pour made with plenty of wheat malt, plus orange peel, coriander seed, chamomile, cloves, as well as lime from Owase, Mie Prefecture, and honey from Hachigoya in Nagai, Yokosuka City.
- Stout
- A dark beer. A low-centered flavor profile that emphasizes deep richness and pitch-black color.
- Orange Ale
- A fruit beer. Characterized by the rich aroma and acidity unique to orange.
- Wheat Land
- A wheat-forward beer. A brisk finish made by adding a generous amount of wheat malt to barley malt and aromatizing it with hops that carry a white-wine-like fragrance. It uses baguettes from Miura Pan-ya Mitsumugi as part of the ingredients.
- Raw Hazy IPA
- An IPA. It uses the Raw Ale method, in which the wort is not boiled, allowing you to enjoy hop-derived citrus and pine-needle aromas along with bitterness. This one also uses baguettes from Miura Pan-ya Mitsumugi.
The lineup reflects 15brewery's style, with a strong local feel that highlights ingredients from the neighborhood and connections with nearby businesses, making the Hayama brewery's regional character stand out clearly. This time the announcement is geared more toward taking the beers home than drinking on-site, but each label's individuality comes through clearly. From light wheat styles to aromatic IPAs and spice-forward Belgian-style beers, it is a tap list that offers plenty of fun for comparison tasting.
