444 BEYOND introduces three Kyoto Brewing cans: Ichigo Ichie, Juuichi Juuichi Juuichi, and IROTORIDORI
On May 22, the beer pub 444 BEYOND in Higashimizue, Edogawa Ward, Tokyo, introduced three Kyoto Brewing cans. It highlighted the character of each beer: the standard saison "Ichigo Ichie", the 11th-anniversary "Juuichi Juuichi Juuichi", and the NZ IPA "IROTORIDORI".
Hop BroThe three Kyoto Brewing cans introduced by 444 BEYOND in Higashimizue make for a really interesting lineup.
MugiWait, the three cans already have different personalities? That alone makes me want to do a tasting!
Hop BroFirst up is the standard Ichigo Ichie saison. It has flair, depth, and drinkability all at once, which is exactly what you want in a beer.
MugiWhat's a saison? It sounds like the name of some stylish farmer's clothes, but how does it taste different?
Hop BroSaison is basically a style that tends to be crisp and refreshing. Here, it seems like they've layered in aromatic brightness while keeping it smooth and easy to drink.
MugiSo then what is Juuichi Juuichi Juuichi? Is it some kind of code? There are too many numbers for my brain to handle!
Hop BroThis is a very aggressive West Coast IPA made for the 11th anniversary, with nine hop varieties added in 11 separate rounds. At ABV 8.0% and IBU 55, it combines juiciness with precision.
MugiWait, adding hops in 11 separate rounds? That's basically artisan-level craftsmanship. They probably hold a meeting every time they add hops!
Hop BroAnd IROTORIDORI is an NZ IPA. At ABV 6.0% and IBU 30, it brings out the vivid character of New Zealand hops while staying light and easy to drink.
MugiNice, a lineup from the standard stuff to hop-explosive beers is the best. A tasting at 444 BEYOND would definitely make me happy!
Hop BroWhat's more, the interior is said to feel easy for solo drinking, so you can just stop by and take your time enjoying the personalities of the three cans.
MugiThat's it, I want to drink now! I'll start with Ichigo Ichie and go through all of them one by one, so Hop bro, you're coming with me!
