Brasserie Knot’s AWA joins the guest beer lineup at Susukino Yell STAND
Susukino Yell STAND, a beer pub in Sapporo’s Susukino district, is listing Brasserie Knot’s AWA as a guest beer. With a pale golden color, a soft white head, gentle hop bitterness, and clean malt sweetness, it is a beer that suits a quiet break.
Hop BroToday’s topic is Brasserie Knot’s AWA showing up at Susukino Yell STAND, and it really sounds like a perfect guest beer kind of pint.
MugiWait, I thought that name was a brewery, but it’s the pub!? You can get it at COCONO SUSUKINO B1, which sounds very convenient for my lost-in-Susukino self!
Hop BroExactly. The pub is serving it, and the star this time is Brasserie Knot’s AWA. It has pale gold and white foam, so it already looks soft and inviting.
MugiWow! It’s called AWA and it has beautiful foam too? That’s basically perfect self-branding. I already want a glass.
Hop BroThe flavor isn’t about going loud, either. It layers gentle hop bitterness with clean malt sweetness, so it feels like a balanced golden-ale vibe to me.
MugiHold on, what does clean malt sweetness even mean? Is the beer doing housework now?
Hop BroNot that kind of clean. It means there’s not much muddiness, so the grain sweetness comes through clearly, with a crisp easy finish that doesn’t feel heavy.
MugiOhhh, got it! So it works as a first drink, but also when you’ve had a few and want to reset your palate a little?
Hop BroExactly. Susukino Yell STAND is fun because guest taps let you meet lots of brewery personalities, and AWA fits nicely as an easy-drinking option in that lineup.
MugiI kind of love that. Not flashy, just there for you when you want a breather... now I’m really craving a gentle cheers moment.
Hop BroSame here. It sounds like the kind of beer that works before food or midway through a long session, so if I saw it there, I’d say start with AWA without hesitation.
MugiThen it’s settled! I want to watch that fluffy foam and enjoy the soft bitterness and malt sweetness. I’m officially at maximum beer craving now!
