Hop BroIt is from YUMWAKKA BREWING, available at Susukino Ale STAND. It is a cloudy-looking Hazy IPA pour.
MugiWait, what does hazy mean again? I feel like I might get lost in the fog! Is it a soft white cloudy look?
Hop BroExactly. “Hazy” means cloudy; this IPA keeps compounds from hops and yeast in suspension. In other words, it looks juicy from the start.
MugiOoh! So it is not just bitter—it can feel almost juice-like too? That mango-like aroma has my full attention!
Hop BroYou have it. Tropical fruit and mango notes meet fresh citrus. “Hop aroma” simply means aroma from the hops.

Susukino Yell STAND, a craft beer pub in Sapporo’s Susukino district, is serving YUMWAKKA BREWING’s Northbound Haze.
YUMWAKKA BREWING is based in Wakkanai, the northernmost town in Hokkaido. The beer’s name, “Northbound,” refers to the road leading north and evokes a scene in which a damp breeze creates mist that makes the road appear white and hazy.
Northbound Haze is a Hazy IPA with a distinctly cloudy appearance. Its aroma suggests tropical fruit and mango, complemented by a refreshing citrus character. The beer also offers a generous hop aroma and a soft, smooth mouthfeel, giving it the juicy and rounded profile associated with the style.
Its combination of expressive hop aromatics and a gentle texture makes it a suitable choice for drinkers who enjoy aromatic IPAs, as well as those who prefer fruity and mellow beers over intensely bitter examples. The northern Hokkaido setting behind the beer adds another layer to the tasting experience.
Located on the basement level of COCONO SUSUKINO in central Sapporo, Susukino Yell STAND specializes in Hokkaido craft beer. Northbound Haze offers an opportunity to discover the character of a beer brewed in Wakkanai while enjoying the pub’s selection of locally made beers.
