Hop BroThe beer pub in Setagaya's Daizawa, Awashima Soko's March 27 taps are out. With YOROCCO BEER, Nara Brewing, and Nobody Brewing in the mix, it's exactly the kind of night made for a calm tasting session.
MugiWhoa, that many!? So it's a five-beer tasting, right? Even the names sound delicious, and now I'm already restless!
Hop BroThe first beer to watch is YOROCCO BEER's Summer Mandarin Saison. Saison was originally a style enjoyed by farmers during the off-season, and it's fun because of the lightly fermented aromas that come from the yeast. This one has a soft citrusy character.
MugiWait, what's a fermentation-derived aroma? So even if there aren't any fruits in it, it can still smell like that?
Hop BroExactly, that's the interesting part. The yeast creates aromas that can give it a mandarin-like impression. Liberation Pils next to it is a German pils, so it's crisp and clean by comparison.
MugiWow, the range is huge right away! From crisp and clean to a citrusy saison, the mouthfeel is going to be busy!
Hop BroNara Brewing's lineup is solid too. LIGHT HOUSE is a micro porter with the aroma of roasted malt, and HOMEWARD BOUND is an extra pale ale that's easy to pair with food. If you remember porter for its roasted character and EPA for its light, defined hop profile, it's easy to get into.
MugiWait, roasted character like coffee!? They can make that in beer? That's kind of magic, isn't it?
Hop BroAnd then you finish with Nobody Brewing's The Triphop, a hop-forward Hazy IPA. A Hazy IPA is cloudy and juicier in style, pushing aroma volume more than bitterness.
MugiI see, so today we can travel from light to richer flavors! Enjoying that aroma volume while drinking quietly sounds amazing.
Hop BroWhat's more, Awashima Soko has a not-too-large interior, so it's perfect for taking your time with a glass. Groups of four or more may be turned away, so going with a small group is just right.
MugiAll right, now I really want to go! On this Awashima-dori evening, I'll pick the Summer Mandarin Saison, and you decide what you'll drink, hop bro. Let's toast!
