MugiWhoa! Even though it’s a pilsner, they’re going that hard with a collaboration? The name Julie Ann Pils already has me curious!
Hop BroExactly. It’s a 6.5% pilsner, but it’s not just light and easy-drinking - it has a piney, dank profile layered with fruity character.
MugiWhat?! Dank doesn’t mean the beer is wet, right?
Hop BroNo, no - here it means something like a humid hop aroma, with a strong earthy, resinous feel. On top of that, you get hints of watermelon, melon, raspberry, and cherry.
MugiWow! If it’s easy to drink like a pilsner even with all that layered fruitiness, that sounds dangerously delicious, doesn’t it?
Hop BroExactly. It pairs well with food, too, and KEG NAGOYA serves seasonal dishes, so there’s real fun in matching each pint at the counter.
MugiAnd they always have 13 beers on tap, right? That’s the kind of place where you get lost before you even start choosing!
Hop BroAnd the lineup that day was especially strong, with beers like Shiga Kogen Beer 1t IPA and Iwate Kura Beer Oyster Stout, so the range of styles was impressive.
MugiWow, it’s also perfect for daytime drinking, so it really makes me want to drop by on a weekend or holiday!
Hop BroPlus, you can keep chasing limited beers, so it’s an irresistible stop for hop lovers. Just thinking about the next pint makes my throat ache for one.
MugiAbsolutely! I want to drink right now, so take me on a Nagoya beer-pub crawl!
