Hop BroA fresh keg has landed in Susukino: NAKAFURANO BREWERY's Polaris at Susukino Ale STAND, on the B1 floor of COCONO SUSUKINO.
MugiWhoa! A black beer in Susukino? And Polaris sounds like a star name—so cool!
Hop BroPolaris is a lower-alcohol stout from a brewery in Nakafurano. It has rich malt character without becoming too heavy.
MugiWhat's a stout? Is it a type of dark beer? I picture something super bitter and filling!
Hop BroExactly. Stouts often use roasted malt, which creates a toasty roasted note—a bit like the aroma of coffee.
MugiOh, I see! Beer made with roasted malt suddenly sounds incredibly tempting!
Hop BroPolaris is brewed with spring water from the Tokachidake range, giving it rich malt, clean finish. It seems friendly for dark-beer newcomers, too.
MugiRich but refreshing?! That's a delicious contradiction! Does that mean it avoids the 'I'm full already' dark-beer feeling?
Hop BroIts lower ABV and lighter mouthfeel make it an easy first pint. It should have great pairing with smoked food and meat dishes.
MugiPolaris with smoked cheese sounds perfect! It's easy to stop by for daytime drinks, too—shopping may have to wait!
Hop BroSince it's connected to Susukino Station and pours craft beer from across Hokkaido, let's start with Polaris. Check availability at the shop, then raise a toast to roasted malt.
MugiDeal! Let's make a Susukino dark-beer debut happen. I'll be in charge of choosing the snacks!
