MugiWait, a strawberry beer? The aroma of fully ripe strawberries sounds almost like dessert!
Hop BroExactly. And this is a fruit sour, so the tartness comes through cleanly, but there’s also a subtle sweetness that makes it easy to drink.
MugiWhen I hear sour, I imagine something way too tart, but how strong is that pleasant tartness?
Hop BroIt’s crisp enough to tighten things up, but not enough to make you grimace. In other words, it leans toward being light and easy to drink. The strawberry aroma comes first, and the tartness supports it from behind.
MugiOhh, that sounds so springlike and cute! I can see why the owner said it suits a springlike mood.
Hop BroAnd that’s what’s great about Extra Hop: even styles they don’t usually have on tap get brought in to match the feel of the day. You can’t miss seasonal guest kegs like this.
MugiWhat, there’s another event coming up too? A 4/5(Sun) TTO feels so event-like!
Hop BroYeah, next week they’re also planning a faló brewing tap takeover, and it looks like the other kegs are also entering the later stage of their run. It’s the kind of place where following the rotation is part of the fun.
MugiAnd the business info needs checking too! March 29 is a temporary closure, and lunch is suspended until April 3, so we have to confirm before going!
Hop BroYeah. Extra Hop’s strength is that it works for both lunch and evening drinking in the middle of town, and having a keg like this makes you want to stop in on a whim.
MugiI already really want to drink it... If we toast with a strawberry sour, spring would feel like it arrived all at once!

In the post, it is introduced as a fruit sour beer with the aroma of fully ripe strawberries, and it is a light, easy-drinking pint with pleasant tartness layered with a hint of sweetness.

For a shop that makes it fun to follow the craft beer lineup, a seasonal guest beer like this is not one to miss.
Also, a `faló brewing` tap takeover is scheduled for next week on `4/5(Sun)`. The post says that the other kegs are also moving into the latter half of their run in preparation for the TTO, so the upcoming rotation is worth watching.
On the operations side, they note that service will be slower on the day because they will be running solo, that `3/29` will be a temporary closure, and that lunch service will be suspended until `4/3`. It remains a downtown beer pub that is easy to use for both daytime and evening drinking, but it is reassuring to check the business information before visiting.
