MugiHuh, what is W TAP TAKE OVER anyway? Does that mean double the taps and double the chaos?
Hop BroBasically, it’s a day when two breweries take center stage. Since the taps are rotated, you can compare the personalities of each brewery at the same place.
MugiI see! But what kind of difference is there between ISHINOMAKI HOP WORKS and Kibo no Oka Brewery?
Hop BroThe announcement doesn’t go into specific beers, but just the fact that it’s a showdown between two Miyagi breweries makes expectations high. Their strengths should come through in things like how they use hops and how they bring out aroma.
MugiWhoa, the technical terms came in fast! But does how hops are used really change the taste that much?
Hop BroIt changes a lot. Whether the aroma is brought forward or the bitterness is shown cleanly makes a huge difference in impression, and comparing that is the best part of a tasting.

Hop BroExactly. It’s Johana Beer’s vivid blue standout beer. Once it joins the tap lineup, the whole table feels instantly more summery.
MugiAnd if they have roasted chicken too, I’m totally ready to drink! I’m getting hungry, and this sounds like the kind of place that makes you drink even more beer.
Hop BroIt’s easy to use as a Jimbocho staple, and the fact that the food is substantial is a strong point. On June 20, enjoy the Miyagi taps, and if you finish with Great Blue, you’ll probably want one more drink.
