MugiWhoa! Air-freighted means it must be super fresh. Is an air-freighted HAZY IPA really that different?
Hop BroExactly. It really lets the aroma come through. The article says it has sweetness like tangelo, orange sherbet, and mango, layered with bitter citrus from lime and piney bitterness.
MugiHuh, what's a tangelo? That suddenly sounds like a fancy fruit name! What does the aroma of tangelo smell like?
Hop BroSimply put, it's a juicier, more vivid citrus note than orange. HAZY IPA is hazy and puts the emphasis on hop aroma, so the aroma takes center stage.
MugiWhat? It already sounds delicious before even drinking it! And Two Fingers has 10 kegs on tap? Isn't that crazy busy?
Hop BroThe lineup is interesting too. There's the house-brewed 'Highway to Helles' and 'Garage,' Tokyo Aleworks' 'Hop Gasoline,' and even NAMACHA's 'Witchaz Smoothie'.
MugiWow! From Helles to smoothie beers, that's so free and fun! A place with a wide range of styles is exciting just to browse.
Hop BroOn top of that, backups include Saikado x Oni Densetsu's 'Onisotesu' and WCB's 'Nemesis Nectar.' They also handle cans and bottles to go, so it's a strong setup for walks and hanami.
MugiAmazing! Then I'll look for a drink I like somewhere along the way to hanami, and Hop-brother, you can drink while talking your beer trivia!
Hop BroThat's good. Today's article made me want to stop by Ikebukuro and have a glass of Propeller.
MugiYeah, once I read it, I was done for! A drink after hanami sounds absolutely delicious!
