The beer pub Sakura Taps in Hanasakicho, Yokohama, published its tap list for April 10 and opened FARMENTRY's "No.03 Yayoi IPA #2" on tap. Eight beers are on offer, including Numazu Craft, Shiga Kogen Beer, and Narasyuzou x Kaze no Mori.
Hop BroSakura Taps in Hanasakicho, Yokohama, has put out its tap list for April 10. This time, the newly tapped beer is No.03 Yayoi IPA #2, and that's the main highlight here.
MugiWhat, there are eight beers all lined up? I was planning on just having one, but now it feels like I'm about to end up on a tasting flight!
Hop BroAnd this Yayoi IPA #2 isn't just any IPA. They've revised the recipe to aim for a tropical-fruit-style aroma. With Pacifica plus Krush, Mosaic, El Dorado, and Ekuanot, the hop lineup is basically an aroma traffic jam.
MugiToo many hops, I can't keep up! What do you mean by a hop traffic jam? Is this like the buses at the station?
Hop BroBasically, they're layering the roles of different hops to create a multi-layered aroma. When tropical, citrus, and a little dank character come through one after another, it makes for a fun drink.
MugiOhhh! So it's not one that ends with the first sip. A beer where the aroma changes in multiple stages sounds kind of like an adult amusement park!
Hop BroThe rest of the lineup is strong too. There's EX Oats Brown Ale, Helles, Snow Monkey IPA, and Rauchbock, so the range stretches from classic to smoky.
MugiRauchbock sounds powerful just from the name! If it even has a smoky personality, today's going to be a roller coaster of flavors!
Hop BroAnd they've got the UNDERWATER series from Narasyuzou x Kaze no Mori, plus the Baeren x Highbury collaboration, so the tap lineup is really solid. Sakura Taps is the kind of place that's perfect for a calm side-by-side tasting.
MugiWow, I want to go! When you say it's ideal for a tasting comparison, my stomach starts holding a meeting before I do!
Hop BroThere's also an event announcement with Sabatora Shuhan for the following day, so it's nice that there's activity heading into the weekend too. First, I'd want one drink in Yokohama, starting with the Yayoi IPA #2.
MugiIt's decided! Since it's a perfect beer night, I'm going in too, with you, Hop-nii, starting with something aromatic!
