Dolphin Industry in Kagoshima shares tap list featuring Minoh Coffee IPA
Dolphin Industry, a beer pub in Higashisengoku-cho, Kagoshima, has shared its latest tap list. The lineup includes Minoh Beer’s Coffee IPA and Kyoto Brewing x West Coast Brewing’s Stargazer, alongside four other distinct beers.
Hop BroSomething in Kagoshima caught my eye: the beer pub Dolphin Industry just posted its August 19 tap list, and all six beers have such distinct personalities that I am thirsty already.
MugiWait, Dolphin Industry sounds way tougher than a normal pub! Which beer is the big star?
Hop BroThe headliner is Minoh Beer's Coffee IPA. It is 6% ABV, with classic IPA bitterness layered with roasty coffee aroma, like morning and night shaking hands inside one glass.
MugiHold on, roasty nuances? What is that supposed to mean? Is the beer coming with toasted bread on the side?
Hop BroClose enough. It really means a toasty finish, like coffee beans or lightly roasted malt lingering after each sip, so it does not just end as plain bitterness.
MugiOhhh! Then what about Kyoto Brewing x West Coast Brewing's Stargazer?
Hop BroThat one is an 8% Hazy Double IPA, with a cloudy juicy feel and a big, thick hop presence. The name sounds cosmic, but the body lands with serious weight.
MugiWhat! What is hazy? My understanding is getting cloudy before the beer even arrives!
Hop BroIn simple terms, it means a juice-like mouthfeel in an IPA. And the rest of the list is stacked too: B.M.B BREWERY's Cryptid is a Sour, Sunny B is a Golden Ale, Wolf of willows' Chopper is an IPA, and Shiga Kogen Beer's Snow monkey IPA is a Hazy IPA.
MugiIf one lineup covers acidity, bitterness, brightness, and easy-drinking vibes, I would totally chase that day-by-day lineup. I need a place like this near me!
Hop BroThat is the charm here. A wide style range on tap at Hamada Building 3F, no gimmicks, just confidence in the beer. That kind of restraint shows real taste.
MugiI am sold. Coffee IPA first, Stargazer second, then happy confusion after that. I want a six-beer flight right now!
Dolphin Industry, a beer pub in Higashisengoku-cho, Kagoshima City, has posted its tap list for August 19. The bar is located on the 3rd floor of the Hamada Building and is known as a place to enjoy craft beer in a straightforward, everyday setting.
The headline pour is Minoh Beer’s Coffee IPA. At 6% ABV, it combines IPA structure with a roasty coffee character, making it a beer worth sipping for both hop bite and malt depth. Another standout is Stargazer, a collaboration between Kyoto Brewing and West Coast Brewing. This 8% Hazy Double IPA promises fuller body and a more layered hop profile.
The rest of the lineup includes B.M.B BREWERY’s Cryptid (Sour) and Sunny B (Golden Ale), Wolf of the Willows’ Chopper (IPA), and Shiga Kogen Beer’s Snow Monkey IPA (Hazy IPA). Together, the beers cover a wide range of flavors, from tart and bright to hoppy and easygoing.
