Hop BroThere’s a fresh keg worth talking about in Imaike. Asakara Ale from Decoboco Brew Works just went on at CHICKEN BOY, and that’s a solid detour beer.
MugiWait, Asakara Ale literally sounds like "ale from the morning"! Is this beer giving us official permission to start early?
Hop BroThe name is playful, but it’s a proper pale ale. It brings a nice aroma up front, then follows with a deeper malt richness.
MugiOooh, but deeper richness sounds like a quiz question. You mean flavorful without turning super heavy?
Hop BroExactly. What that really means is malt-driven body. Think a lightly toasty, bread-like depth that gives the flavor more shape.
MugiWhat is that! Malt-driven body somehow sounds like a fluffy blanket and a snack at the same time. So it’s not a bitterness explosion?
Hop BroNot an explosion, more a balance of aroma and drinkability. It was inspired by Ichinomiya’s morning cafe culture, so it sounds easy to enjoy with food too.
MugiTurning morning culture into beer is hilarious and brilliant. If it works great with food too, I want it with a full CHICKEN BOY meal.
Hop BroAnd CHICKEN BOY being on Sunshine Imaike 1F makes it easy to drop in. Places that rotate guest taps like this always make you wonder what’s pouring today.
MugiThen it’s settled, if I spot it in Imaike, first glass is Asakara Ale. Funny name first, then boom, I’m in love with the aroma and richness.
