Hop BroBEER OTAKU SPICE in Tokyo’s Taito Ward has tapped NOMCRAFT Brewing’s “Green Magic” on draft. That’s a very tempting post-work detour!
MugiWhoa! That name sounds powerful! What kind of beer is Green Magic? Will I turn into a green wizard after one sip?
Hop BroIt’s a four-hop Hazy IPA, made with Mosaic, Citra, Simcoe, and Cascade. It should be cloudy and soft on the palate.
MugiWhat? Those hops sound like a four-piece band! And what does “Hazy” in Hazy IPA actually mean?
Hop Bro“Hazy” means cloudy. By leaving more hop-derived material in the beer instead of filtering it crystal clear, brewers can create a soft, plush mouthfeel.
MugiOoh, cloudy-looking and fluffy-tasting! And the tropical stone-fruit character means peachy or mango-like aromas, right?
Hop BroExactly. Alongside that fruitiness, it has a dank hop aroma—suggestions of grass and resin—that gives the beer a vivid green edge.
MugiResin?! Is my beer secretly a pine tree? I was about to toast in the forest. So, what does dank mean here?
Hop BroThink pine, herbs, and slightly damp grass: an intense, distinctive hop character. It’s like taking a walk through aroma woods, not eating a tree.
MugiA forest walk with biryani sounds amazing! At BEER OTAKU SPICE, we can pair it with chicken or tuna biryani, right?
Hop BroAbsolutely. Aromatic Hazy IPA can make spice flavors and fruit notes shine. Lunch runs 11:30–14:00 LO and evenings 17:00–23:00 LO, so Taito 1-8-5 awaits.
MugiThe lunch-only mazesoba sounds great too, but first: biryani and Green Magic! Let’s go get hop-powered magic tonight!
