Hop BroTotopia Brewery's "Glitchphobia" is going on tap at BEER PUB BRICK LANE in Fushimi, Nagoya starting at 14:00 on May 3. This is the kind of beer craft fans won't want to miss.
MugiWhoa! Just the name "Glitchphobia" sounds intense! Bug phobia? What kind of thing happens to beer!?
Hop BroWhat's inside is a DDH West Coast IPA. They use a lot of hops, so the aroma is sharply defined, and it has the clean snap you'd expect from a West Coast style.
MugiDDH? What is that, a spell? I'm already totally lost in hop land!
Hop BroDDH stands for "Double Dry Hop," a method where hops are added after fermentation to intensify the aroma. So the fragrance is layered on afterward, and that's what makes it fun the moment you bring the glass near.
MugiI see! So descriptions like "lime-like" and "dank" are talking about the personality of the aroma!
Hop BroExactly. The product description says it opens with a fresh lime character, then expands into dank aromas. The hops are Riwaka, Krush, Mosaic Cryo, and Nelson Sauvin, so it's got a pretty vivid profile.
MugiJust the hop names are enough to fill me up! But Riwaka and Nelson Sauvin sound way too stylish, don't they?
Hop BroAnd while the ABV is listed as 7.5%, the actual notice says 7.3%. It's a small difference, but that kind of variation in the numbers feels very real-world, and that's interesting too.
MugiWow. Totopia Brewery started in Nagakute in 2022, right? It's a little moving to see such an aggressive flavor from small-batch energy...!
Hop BroA place like BRICK LANE, where you can drink slowly with 40 seats, should make it easy to really study the balance of fruitiness and bitterness in this hop profile. I want to go right now and follow the changes in aroma.
MugiYeah, today's decision is a beer in Nagoya! If it starts with lime and ends with dank, we want to ride that wave too~!
