MugiWhoa! I’ve heard the name American Pale Ale, but what kind of flavor is it?
Hop BroIn short, it’s a style where the bitterness doesn’t run as wild as an IPA, and you can still really enjoy the hop aroma. It pairs especially well when you want a limited-release beer to feel approachable like this one.
MugiI see, so today you can start with a light, easy-drinking pint. Anything else on the list?
Hop BroDefinitely. The draft lineup includes five beers with strong individual character, such as Hop Kotan Brewing’s “Umemigachi” and “Upopo,” BREW CLASSIC’s “Ain't Liquid,” and Shiga Kogen Beer’s “Snow Monkey IPA Silver Label 2026.”
MugiWow, the names already sound delicious. By the way, what’s the difference between a saison and an IPA?
Hop BroA saison tends to have a dry finish from fermentation, while an IPA usually puts the hop bitterness and aroma front and center. In this article, the ABV also ranges from 4.5% to 8.0%, which makes it fun to choose based on your mood.
MugiWhat, that’s a huge range! And the cans and bottles are packed with collaborations, right?
Hop BroExactly. There’s WEST COAST Brewing × Inkhorn Brewing’s “Super Fresh,” WEST COAST Brewing × Sakamichi Brewing’s “The Hop Dukes,” and even Nude Beer × FLORA FARMENTATION’s “URARAKAZE,” so the strength isn’t just on tap.
MugiNo way! With a world of 28 beers like that, just deciding is basically a party.
Hop BroAnd it’s in the basement floor of Kachidoki Sun Square, with no service charge, seat charge, or appetizer charge. It’s very TWO KINGS-like in how easy it is to drop in after work and compare a bunch of beers.
MugiAlright, I’m starting with a toast to “Side Chain Series 08,” then I’m going for Hop Kotan Brewing too! I’m in the mood to drink tonight and it’s not stopping!
