Beer shop Llama in Mitaka, Tokyo has received two new releases from Teenage Brewing. The lineup includes "SHOHEI ZEN IPA," made with domestic persimmons, and "Disk Echo," the second collaboration with ONIW COFFEE, roasted by Takaaki Mino of toe, both available in cans.
Hop BroTwo new Teenage Brewing beers have just landed at Beer shop Llama in Mitaka. The persimmon beer "SHOHEI ZEN IPA" and the coffee beer "Disk Echo" are quite the lineup, aren't they?
MugiWhoa! There are persimmon beers now!? I can't even tell where the produce section ends and the beer pub begins!
Hop BroThat's the fun of it. SHOHEI ZEN IPA is a Persimmon DIPA, and the rich fruitiness of domestic persimmons overlaps with a hazy, substantial body. It's sweet and mellow, but not just sweet, which is very Teenage Brewing.
MugiPersimmon DIPA means... a big IPA where persimmons are the star? The name alone is already packed with so much flavor information!
Hop BroBasically, it's a beer with a rich, smooth mouthfeel layered with persimmon notes. At 6.0% ABV, it looks heavy, but the balance makes it surprisingly easy to keep reaching for.
MugiI see! So "Disk Echo" is the opposite direction, like a dark, weighty one? Just hearing coffee already gives it that late-night treat vibe!
Hop BroExactly. Disk Echo is an Imperial Stout w/Coffee, and it's the second collaboration with ONIW COFFEE, whose beans are roasted by Takaaki Mino of toe. A double mash gives it a thick foundation, then coffee acidity and depth are layered over flavors like cacao and bitter chocolate.
MugiThere it is again, double mash! The specialized terms are speeding up now, Hop-bro!
Hop BroTo put it simply, it's a brewing method that uses plenty of malt to extract sugars and build a thicker body. So even at 11.0%, it doesn't just hit hard; it has real substance.
MugiBeer shop Llama really does feel dependable as a place that gets new releases in. It sounds great either to take home in cans and enjoy slowly, or to drink right there in the shop!
Hop BroExactly. It's nice when these two notable beers line up in Mitaka. Whether you go for the gentle sweetness of persimmon today or the deep aftertaste of coffee, just thinking about it makes my throat crave a sip.
MugiI'm going to start with the persimmon IPA, and if I work up the courage, maybe Disk Echo after that! Now I want both, and that's a problem!
