Hop BroWant a Beer in Motoimaizumi, Utsunomiya, has announced its 6 taps for 5/21. They’ve even got two original 5th-anniversary beers in the mix, so it’s clearly a high-energy day.
MugiWait, six kinds and they’re all different enough to stand out? That’s the kind of lineup that’s fun before you even choose!
Hop BroExactly. It’s a mix of IPA, hazy, Irish red, sour, Belgian white, and Kölsch, so it’s a lineup that really splits opinion by preference.
MugiHold on, what even is a West Coast style IPA? Is it beer for drinking while feeling coastal?
Hop BroNo, no, it’s about the flavor, not the scenery. Ushitora Brewery’s Adult Can Beer, keg ver. is an American IPA with restrained malt character and a crisp finish.
MugiOhhh! So Be easy Brewing’s Tohoku 6 Hop sounds like it’s hop-heavy just from the name?
Hop BroExactly. It’s a Hazy IPA featuring NZ hops. It’s fruity and juicy, with a soft mouthfeel, so even people who are wary of bitterness can get into it.
MugiWhat the heck! And they’ve got two 5th-anniversary originals too? That’s almost unfair! It makes you want to toast on the spot!
Hop BroThey’re collabs with Romanchikku Mura. Fresh!!! is a Fruits Sour Ale made with hand-squeezed juice from five kinds of citrus, and SPECIALS is a Belgian White using natsumikan, hassaku, and more. The juiciness and freshness give it a festive, anniversary feel.
MugiAnd they’ve got spring rolls, carpaccio, even pizza? That’s the full force of a beer pub! The food is practically as important as the beer!
Hop BroExactly. Once hairy crab and asparagus spring rolls show up, it’s basically cheating. It feels like a place where you can eat and drink to your heart’s content in Utsunomiya, and now I want to go right away and have a pint.
MugiYeah, today I just want to toast at Want a Beer! I’d start with the sour, then a hazy, and finish with the Kölsch!
