Hop BroAt Moyamoya Base in Minami 2-jo Higashi 1-chome, Sapporo, one keg has been tapped. This time it’s Ise Kadoya Beer’s "Sencha HAZY IPA," and that’s definitely one to watch.
MugiWait, what even is Sencha HAZY IPA? Tea and beer in the same glass is a bit much for my brain to process!
Hop BroA hazy IPA is known for its cloudy mouthfeel and juicy aroma. Add sencha into the mix, and the floral hop character gets layered with a Japanese tea fragrance, which is what makes it so interesting.
MugiBut doesn’t that floral hop character get out of hand? Won’t the beer just drown out the tea’s elegance and go, "I’m the star here"?
Hop BroThat’s where the brewer’s skill comes in. When the tea-leaf aroma and astringency are blended so they don’t clash with the hop aroma, the finish becomes beautifully refined.
MugiWhoa, and Moyamoya Base is open from 2:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. A beer pub you can drop into in the afternoon is already amazing on its own, right?
Hop BroExactly. It’s nice because it’s easy to stop by casually in central Sapporo. And this time, since it was announced on Instagram as a one-keg-only rotation, it’s safer to check early if you want it.
MugiOh no, then I have to hurry! And Ise Kadoya Beer already has this image of being carefully crafted, so my expectations are rising before I even drink it!
Hop BroWhen Ise Kadoya Beer’s clean brewing is layered with the crisp aroma of sencha, it becomes easy to pair with food too. The Japanese-style aftertaste should make it enjoyable right through the finish.
MugiI can already hear my throat from here... Let’s head to Moyamoya Base today for a cup of sencha-inspired beer.
