craft beer HOP CROWD in Yokkaichi adds Himitsu Beer’s Fruit Scandal and more cans
On July 4, craft beer HOP CROWD, a beer pub in Yokkaichi, Mie, posted a can update headed by Himitsu Beer’s “Fruit Scandal.” The lineup also includes seven other domestic and imported beers, with an event planned for July 11.
Hop BroBig news from Yokkaichi: craft beer HOP CROWD just brought in eight fresh cans. The headliner is Himitsu Beer's Fruit Scandal, a Fruit Ale that feels perfect for rainy season.
MugiWhat! Fruit Scandal sounds less like a beer and more like celebrity gossip. I want the full story before the first sip!
Hop BroThat's the fun part: it has sake lees and rice notes, and they even describe it like a Minute Maid-style drink. But it leans medium-bodied, so it doesn't stop at simple fruitiness.
MugiWait, medium-bodied? Why does that sound like a workout plan for my tongue? Is it light, heavy, or just showing off?
Hop BroBasically it's a fuller mouthfeel. Instead of disappearing like water, the flavor stays on your palate, so the fruit, sake lees, and rice character all come through.
MugiOhhh, so it's a cute name, serious flavor situation. That is dangerous in the best possible way!
Hop BroAnd the lineup is wide: eight distinct picks including Oni Densetsu's Kin-Oni Pale Ale Luminosa ver., Faction's Terpsman IPA, Isekadoya's Brown Ale, and Farmentry's Imperial Stout.
MugiThat's a wild flavor range! Crisp beers, hoppy beers, dark stout boss-battle beers... that fridge sounds like a mini beer festival.
Hop BroPlus there's Flora Fermentation's Apollo, Nat.Brew's Gravity Apple, and Neko Beer’s Girimoza, and HOP CROWD lets you drink there while choosing cans to take home. They also have The 6 Dish on July 11 at 1:00 p.m.
MugiThat settles it, I want a glass now. Start me with Fruit Scandal, then let me spiral into IPA-versus-Brown-Ale decisions like a proper craft beer fan!
craft beer HOP CROWD, a beer pub in Suwa Sakaemachi, Yokkaichi, shared a can arrival update on July 4. The post focuses on fruit-forward beers suited to the rainy season, and the selection fits the shop’s style of serving craft beer on site while also offering cans and bottles to take home.
The lineup mentioned in the post includes eight beers:
- Himitsu Beer, “Fruit Scandal” - Fruit Ale
- Flora Fermentation, “Apollo”
- Noboribetsu Jibeer Oni Densetsu, “Kinki Pale Ale Luminosa Ver.”
- Nat.Brew, “Gravity Apple”
- Neko Beer, “Girimoza”
- Faction, “Terpsman IPA”
- Ise Kadoya Beer, “Brown Ale”
- Farmentry, “Imperial Stout”
In the caption, “Fruit Scandal” is described as a drink where sake lees and rice come through in a way that recalls a Minute Maid-style fruit drink. That gives the can selection a clear seasonal anchor: lighter fruit character on one end, then pale ale, IPA, brown ale, and imperial stout for drinkers who want more hop character or deeper malt depth.
HOP CROWD’s hours are Tuesday through Saturday from 16:00 to 24:00, Sundays from 13:00 to 21:00, and Mondays are closed. The post also notes an event on July 11 at 13:00, making it a useful stop for anyone looking for the latest craft beer cans in Yokkaichi.
