Hop BroAny weekend plans yet? Sakamichi Brewing just posted its tap list on Instagram, and the fresh arrivals are Shibasaki Session and Maillot Jaune.
MugiWait, two new pours? I already want in. Shibasaki sounds cool, but Maillot Jaune sounds like my tongue needs a warm-up.
Hop BroShibasaki Session is their flagship session IPA, named after Shibasaki in Tachikawa, and it's been a longtime favorite in the taproom.
MugiHold on, what is session IPA? It sounds like a beer for people taking meeting notes.
Hop BroNothing that grim. Lower-alcohol design means an IPA built to stay easy-drinking over a few rounds, and this one still keeps a firm bitterness.
MugiOhhh, light but bitter! That's such a sneaky combo. Cute smile, sharp comeback energy.
Hop BroAnd Maillot Jaune is inspired by the yellow jersey, the Tour de France leader's jersey, which fits the brewery's cycling roots perfectly.
MugiWhat now, what is a radler? I came for beer and somehow got drafted into a bike documentary.
Hop BroA radler is a lemony, breezy style, with citrusy lift and easy-drinking refreshment. It's there to brighten up the whole weekend lineup.
MugiOkay, I love that Tachikawa local feel. Putting a hometown staple next to a playful new release is such a good move.
Hop BroThat tracks for them, because they're about classic to modern styles and they care about the process, not just the result. Makes me want both back-to-back.
MugiYep, this is the perfect weekend combo. Start crisp with Shibasaki Session, then finish with Maillot Jaune and that lemony kick. I want to head to Tachikawa now.
