Hop BroPotluck_cbb in Shiba just got six fresh arrivals from Kaigan Brewery down in Minamiboso.
MugiWhat! It sounds like an IPA festival, but do six beers really taste that different?
Hop BroThey really do. Hoptimus Prime is a NE IPA, Oogama is a Hazy IPA, Hanakago Point and Shojo are West Coast IPAs, then Chitose Point is a Kolsh and Bakekujira is a Wit Bier, so the range is huge.
MugiHold on, NE IPA and West Coast IPA already sound like a pop quiz I forgot to study for!
Hop BroIn simple terms, NE IPA is softer and juicier on the aroma side, while West Coast IPA is sharper with clearer bitterness. So it’s basically juicy camp or crisp camp.
MugiOhhh, so Hoptimus Prime is the swoon-over-the-aroma pick? Wild name for such a gentle vibe!
Hop BroThat’s pretty much it. Oogama should have that soft Hazy IPA feel, Chitose Point is light at 4.6%, and Bakekujira brings wheat character, so it’s the easy-drinking slot in the lineup.
MugiBakekujira sounds fierce but drinks softly? That’s cheating. So which one is the bitterness powerhouse?
Hop BroFor defined bitterness, Shojo at 7.4% is the front-runner. Hanakago Point also has that classic West Coast snap, so the compare-and-contrast fun is strong here.
MugiOkay, I see the plan: start with Chitose Point, slide into Bakekujira, then finish on Shojo. Flight strategy complete.
Hop BroExactly. When a place like Potluck_cbb lets you trace Kaigan Brewery’s range in one stop, I want the whole set tonight.
MugiThat’s it, I’m ready to sprint to Shiba. I need a tasting flight now, and you’re absolutely giving live commentary beside me!

New beers
- Hoptimus Prime - NE IPA / 6.0%

- Bakekujira - Wit Bier / 5.8%
- Daigama - Hazy IPA / 5.5%
- Shoujou - West Coast IPA / 7.4%
Hoptimus Prime leads with the juicy, aromatic profile expected from an NE IPA. Daigama brings a softer Hazy IPA expression, while Shoujou, at 7.4%, should appeal to drinkers looking for a firmer West Coast IPA bite. The wheat-leaning Bakekujira, the lighter Chitose Point, and Hanagagami Point round out the set with clearly different drinking impressions.
For beer drinkers in the Shiba area, this is the kind of update that makes a beer pub worth checking again. Potluck_cbb’s setting is straightforward and beer-focused, making it a practical stop for tasting through a brewery’s range one pint at a time.
