MugiWhoa, four varieties! And with such a wide range of styles, the lineup alone already sounds fun!
Hop BroExactly. First up is `Tengu Groove`, an American Pale Ale with that great refreshing after-work vibe.
MugiHow is an American Pale Ale different from an IPA? The names sound so similar that the difference is hard to get!
Hop BroBroadly speaking, it's often a bit lighter and easier to drink than an IPA. `Beer Fuel` is a Peated English Brown, a classy one with peat smoke and a dry oak finish.
MugiPeat smoke, like a smoky aroma? Wait, beer can give off that firewood-in-a-bath kind of feeling!
Hop BroPretty close - more like a whisky-like smokiness. And it was brewed with South Horizon and Nama Chaん, so the collaborative energy in this new release is exciting.
MugiWow, `Buffalo Bandit` sounds interesting too! Grapefruit and bitterness - that's classic and right down the middle, isn't it?
Hop BroExactly. The American IPA `Buffalo Bandit` uses Chinook on both the hot side and the cold side to build a geranium-scented bitterness, then layers in pine notes from Simcoe and Mosaic.
MugiAnd the last one, `Mystic Tiger`, a Hazy IPA that tastes like mango lemonade, sounds amazing! If it's easy to drink and a little sweet, I could go through it super easily!
Hop BroOn top of that, Sakamichi Brewing cares about the environment while also valuing local ingredients, so it has that honest western Tokyo character too.
MugiIf a lineup this distinctive is available in Tachikawa, I want to go right now! Today I'd want to start with `Tengu Groove` and taste them all one by one!
Sakamichi Brewing, which operates a brewery and taproom in Shibasaki-cho, Tachikawa City, introduced NOMCRAFT BREWING's new cans on Instagram. The post featured four labels - `Tengu Groove`, `Beer Fuel`, `Buffalo Bandit`, and `Mystic Tiger` - with short comments highlighting each beer's character.
`Tengu Groove` is an American Pale Ale. In the post, it is described as a refreshing beer to enjoy at the end of a hard day. `Beer Fuel` is a Peated English Brown, a new release brewed together with South Horizon and Nama Chaん. It is said to carry a firm peat smoke while remaining gentle on the palate, with a subtle dry tannic note from the oak in the finish.
`Buffalo Bandit` is an American IPA. It is presented as a beer that puts grapefruit notes and a solid bitterness front and center. Chinook was used on both the hot side and the cold side to aim for a geranium-like aroma. Simcoe and Mosaic were then layered in to add pine nuances, creating an IPA that combines classic and modern elements. `Mystic Tiger` is a Hazy IPA characterized by the freshness of mango lemonade and the sweet, smooth flavor of a fruit salad. It is styled with moderate sweetness and easy drinkability in mind.
Sakamichi Brewing is a brewery that emphasizes not only the final result but also the brewing process, and it promotes environmentally conscious craftsmanship in western Tokyo. Its commitment to using local organic ingredients as much as possible while offering a broad range of beer styles from classic to modern is clearly reflected in this can lineup. It is a noteworthy selection of distinctive beers available in Tachikawa.
