Mikkeller NZ's "Forest Friends" and More Poured at BEER COLONY in Toyama
Toyama City beer pub BEER COLONY has updated its tap list. On the final day of its anniversary week, the bar is lining up a diverse selection of kegs, including Mikkeller NZ's "Forest Friends," CRAFTROCK × Riip, Yokohama Bay Brewing, WCB, Knee Deep, and more, while also announcing a beer share gathering on April 17.
Hop BroBEER COLONY in Toyama City has updated its taps, right? It's the final day of anniversary week, and the keg lineup is seriously strong.
MugiWhat! A lineup that豪華 on the final day of anniversary week? And there's even a lottery, so it's basically an overstuffed event bundle!
Hop BroAnd the kegs on tap right now are headlined by Mikkeller NZ's Forest Friends, with CRAFTROCK × Riip and WCB also in the mix. That's the kind of thing beer pub fans can't resist.
MugiWhat is that! West Coast IPA and Hazy Double IPA came at me all at once in rapid-fire jargon!
Hop BroIn simple terms, West Coast styles are known for sharp bitterness and citrus character. Hazy Double IPA, on the other hand, pushes juicy flavor and haze.
MugiOhh! So Forest Friends' aroma is the kind where the citrus, pine, and tropical notes from the article all hit at once?
Hop BroExactly. Mikkeller NZ's refreshing citrus and pine aroma is layered with tropical notes too, so the moment you drink it, you're left wondering whether you're in a forest or the tropics.
MugiA forest and the tropics coexisting sounds like my brain is glitching! And if there's Yuzu Weiss and Gold Ban! too, aren't all the kegs totally different in personality?
Hop BroThat's the good part. Having easy-drinking anchors like Fruit Weizen and Golden Ale means IPA fans and lighter-beer drinkers can all enjoy themselves together.
MugiAnd the next kegs they want to tap are things like Natsumikan SAISON, which already sounds delicious by name alone! If they also take reservations for farewell parties and private events, it seems great for get-togethers too.
Hop BroThere's also the April 17 beer share gathering, and BEER COLONY really is the kind of place where you can enjoy both draft and canned beer across a wide range. Today feels like a day that makes you want a Forest Friends right away.
MugiYeah, this is impossible! It's the kind of day where you go drink some long-awaited Mikkeller and end up checking out the cans too!
