MugiWait, it's a commemorative beer and they're doing preorders? And the name itself sounds strong, like a real anniversary collaboration brew!
Hop BroThe style is Belgian Blonde, and what's interesting is that it uses French hops Aramis, Triskel, and Elixer.
MugiFrench hops sound like they instantly raise the chic factor! But if it's Belgian, why French? What's the difference?
Hop BroThe idea is to layer the sweetness of Belgian yeast with the hops' floral brightness. The aroma carries apple and lychee, plus spice.
MugiI want to drink that! Apple, lychee, and spice are already tasting in my head, the amount of aroma information is incredible!
Hop BroOn top of that, the malt bill uses Pilsen, Wheat malt light, Sour, and Munich, and the ingredients also include Numazu tea, rye, and white koji. The local character is really strong.
MugiWhite koji too!? Now I can't even tell whether this is beer or cuisine! Numazu tea in it sounds like it'll bring in some Japanese aroma too!
Hop BroWith 7.5% ABV, 38 IBU, and 3.4 SRM, it looks quite pale and the bitterness is fairly gentle. It's scheduled to ship in early April 2026.
MugiPale on the outside but rich inside sounds perfect! At 4,700 yen including tax, I guess that's reasonable for a third-anniversary glass!
Hop BroIt's great that they're using local water and Izu ingredients from the back of the bistro 'allez' in front of Mishima Station. I want to drink it while feeling the water and ingredients of Mishima.
MugiYeah, I'd want to toast on the terrace with this! I totally get the feeling of wanting to reserve it right now!
