Hop BroThere's a fresh Okinawa release worth tracking. Cliff Garro Brewing just finished brewing the first Okinawa Hyakkei release, a DDH IPA.
MugiWait, Okinawa Hyakkei sounds like a travel series! And they opened with a DDH IPA? That's coming in hot!
Hop BroThat's the fun part. Cliff Garro Brewing in Okinawa City is launching a canned beer project, and the release is planned for early September.
MugiHold on, what even is DDH IPA? That's so many letters my brain just turned into foam!
Hop BroDDH means double dry hopped, so they add hops twice after fermentation. They use about double the usual amount to really push the aroma forward.
MugiTwice?! That's basically extra hop encore energy. The hops are demanding a spotlight!
Hop BroAnd they're using oats for a smooth, creamy mouthfeel. So the aroma can go big while the sip stays soft.
MugiOh wow, huge hop aroma with an easy texture? That sounds dangerously drinkable. I want the can to bring the Okinawa breeze with it!
Hop BroThat's what makes it interesting. In a can, you get a different sense of place than you do at the taproom. For a brewery known for Okinawan character, that's exciting.
MugiWhen early September hits, I want a cold can in hand immediately. I'm fully ready for release number one.
Hop BroSame here. If it lands the way they're describing, it'll be a tropical aroma trip, and I'd open one the second it drops.
Cliff Garo Brewing, based in Okinawa City, said on August 22 that brewing has been completed for the first beer in its canned project, Okinawa Hyakkei. The first release is a DDH IPA, built around a double dry-hopping process that uses twice the usual amount of hops added in two stages after fermentation.
The brewery says the beer is designed to combine a smooth mouthfeel from oats with a pronounced hop aroma. Sales are scheduled to begin in the first half of September, making this a hop-forward IPA to watch.
Cliff Garo Brewing operates as a microbrewery in Okinawa City and is known for beers that make use of local ingredients and a strong sense of place. Okinawa Hyakkei continues that approach in canned form, bringing the brewery's character into a format that should be easy to share beyond the taproom.
