MugiWhoa, Nozokizaka Kölsch already sounds interesting! What kind of beer is it?
Hop BroIts style is appealing for the light, easy-drinking character typical of a Kölsch. It has 5% ABV, IBU 25, and SRM 3.
MugiIBU and SRM again? It's like a spellbook! So those are the bitterness and color indicators, right?
Hop BroExactly. IBU is a measure of bitterness, and SRM is a measure of color depth. This one is designed to be quite light and crisp.
MugiI see! And if the aroma is honey-like sweetness, then even though it's a Kölsch, it sounds kind of gentle!
Hop BroRight. It's light on the palate, with a subtle malt character and a refreshing aftertaste reminiscent of kumquats and lemon.
MugiWhat? If it's citrusy but not too bitter, it seems like it would go well with food too, right?
Hop BroThat's exactly the point. For the two-day 7th anniversary celebration on May 30 and 31, the first M-size drink is 700 yen.
MugiThen I have to go! I want to toast with the first drink for 700 yen and take my time with the second one!
