Hop BroRIKRI BREWING in Gakugei-daigaku just dropped Flooded in kegs and cans. It is an American Pale Ale with an easy-drinking body and a bright citrus lift, so it is immediately on my radar.
MugiWhat! A citrusy APA already sounds delicious. What kind of aroma are we talking about?
Hop BroIt sits at 5.5% ABV, with Krush and Triumph leading the dry hop and Quantum Citra layered on top. The goal is a juicy orange-and-mikan kind of aroma.
MugiHold on, what is dry hopping? The second you say that, my brain starts foaming over.
Hop BroIt means adding hops after fermentation, basically an aroma-loading step. And because the fermentation is kept clean, you get the hop character without muddy extra flavors.
MugiOooh, so more like fresh-squeezed orange than candy? That sounds super crushable. But does it stay too light?
Hop BroThat is the nice part: it is not watered down at all. You get juicy orange-pulp vibes, a little tropical nuance, and still enough body to keep it satisfying.
MugiWait, the name comes from a Migos track? Now I want background music with my beer.
Hop BroExactly, and it feels very RIKRI. From Takaban in Meguro, this one is good at the bar and just as good to take home in a can.
MugiThat does it, citrus-forward hops are all you had to say. My throat is fully prepared for this mission.
Hop BroThis sounds like classic but vivid APA territory. I would want a draft pour first, then a can for round two at home.
RIKRI BREWING has released `Flooded` in both draft and can form. It is an American Pale Ale at 5.5% ABV, dry-hopped mainly with Krush and Triumph and layered with Quantum Citra to build a juicy, aromatic profile that recalls orange flesh.
According to the brewery's description, the beer opens with soft citrus aromas reminiscent of freshly squeezed orange, mandarin, and mikan, with a subtle tropical edge underneath. The clean fermentation keeps the beer free of roughness and lets the hop aroma come through clearly. At the same time, the hop-derived flavor is given enough depth to avoid feeling too light.
The name `Flooded` comes from a Migos track. Based in the Gakugei-dai area of Tokyo's Meguro Ward, RIKRI BREWING continues to release beers that emphasize hop character and a polished finish. This one should appeal to drinkers looking for an American Pale Ale that pairs bright citrus expression with a tidy fermentation profile.
Whether enjoyed on site or taken home in a can, `Flooded` looks like a straightforward pick for fans of citrus-driven hop character and balanced APA structure.
