Hop BroToday’s topic is Night KIOSK in Nishi-Nippori. They’re pouring two guest beers featuring VERTERE from Okutama.
MugiWhat! Okutama vibes by the station? That’s unfairly convenient in the best way.
Hop BroFirst up, Melilotus is a Belgian Pale Ale at 5.5% ABV. It has light pear and banana notes, plus a gentle touch of spice and herbs, with a crisp dry finish.
MugiWhoa, hold on. Belgian-style aroma sounds fancy, but what does that actually mean?
Hop BroThis is where esters and phenols come in. They’re yeast-driven characters that create fruity and spicy impressions. In plain terms: the aroma gets lively.
MugiNo way, yeast is the chatterbox here? I love that. And if it’s dry, that sounds dangerously easy to drink.
Hop BroThe other one is Palmeri is a DIPA at 8.0% ABV. Think ripe berry, mango, and peach aromas, backed by soft malt sweetness and a fuller body.
MugiWait, 8.0% and smooth? That sounds like the kind of beer that smiles at you and then steals your balance later.
Hop BroExactly, and the low bitterness makes the contrast really fun. Melilotus is clean and dry, while Palmeri leans juicy and plush. Night KIOSK picked a strong pair.
MugiI’m sold. Light versus juicy in one visit? I’d get pulled into Nishi-Nippori immediately.
Hop BroThat’s the key point: two VERTERE pours near the station, with totally different expressions. That’s more than enough reason to go.
MugiI can already taste it in my head. I want a toast now. We can argue on site about whether to start with Melilotus or Palmeri.

- Palmeri: DIPA, ABV 8.0%. The aroma leans toward ripe berries, mango, and peach, supported by soft malt sweetness and body. It is presented as a smooth, low-bitterness double IPA with a juicy, lingering profile.
