15brewery posts five takeout beers in Hayama, led by Numa no Soko
Hayama's 15brewery posted a takeout-only tap list on August 26, led by Numa no Soko, stout, Raw Red Ale, a summer mandarin fruit beer, and Raw Hazy IPA. The lineup leans on local ingredients and low-intervention brewing methods.
Hop BroHayama's 15brewery just announced five take-home pours today. From Numa no Soko to Raw Hazy IPA, the range on this list is pretty wild.
MugiWhat! Bottle refill sales for beer? Am I buying it like deli meat? And the standing bar is closed too, so how do you even get it?
Hop BroThat is the 15brewery way right now: it's takeout only. They mainly refill sealable bottles, but they can also use carbonated PET bottles or screw-cap glass bottles.
MugiWhoa, but Numa no Soko sounds like a dark fantasy side quest. And Belgian style already has me bracing for mysterious magic words!
Hop BroThe name is dramatic, and the beer is too. It's a Belgian-style brew with extra wheat malt, plus orange peel, coriander seed, chamomile, clove, Owase lime, and honey from a Nagai beekeeper.
MugiWhat is this, a shopping list boss battle? And wait, coriander and clove are allowed in beer?
Hop BroThat is where adjunct ingredients get fun. Spices and fruit add layers to the aroma. And Raw Ale means the wort is not boiled, so the malt character stays more upfront.
MugiWait, the wort isn't boiled? That sounds fearless... or like a soup that escaped the kitchen early. So what does it taste like?
Hop BroRaw Red Ale is big on malt with a dense, heavy aroma. Raw Hazy IPA stacks citrus and piney hop notes with moderate bitterness. The stout is black and rich, and Dodanba Ale uses summer mikan plus baguette from Mitsumugi, so honestly I want to take all five home.
MugiI can't take it anymore, I need a tasting run. If changing the glass and temperature changes the whole expression, then we are absolutely heading to Hayama with empty bottles.
