Hop BroFour Belching Beaver beers from the U.S. have arrived at The Beer Shop Hirakata city in Hirakata. The lineup is pretty wide-ranging, from Peanut Butter Milk Stout to HAZY IPA.
MugiWait, what is Peanut Butter Milk Stout? The name alone sounds sweet, and I can't tell whether it's a drink or a dessert!
Hop BroIt's a sweet, toasty stout with the aroma of iced coffee and a peanut butter note layered on top. Because it's a milk stout, the mouthfeel is soft too, so it's the kind you can enjoy like a dessert.
MugiOhh! But "using terpenes" suddenly sounds like a science class. What does that do to the beer?
Hop BroTerpenes are plant-derived aroma compounds, and they really amplify the hop impression. That's why the tropical aroma comes forward, and Belching Beaver's Tropical Terps delivers the juicy character you'd expect from a HAZY IPA.
MugiI see! Then Must Be the Honey sounds gentle from the name alone, so is it a sweet style?
Hop BroExactly. It's a smooth blonde ale made with high-quality honey. It isn't flashy, but it has a soft sweetness and easy drinkability, so it's a strong choice for a first beer.
MugiWhoa, so Death by Blueberry isn't scary despite the name? Since it's blueberry, is it kind of sweet and tart?
Hop BroThat's right. It's a wheat ale with aromas reminiscent of blueberries and vanilla, and the fruit character comes through in a light, easygoing way. Because it has the soft body you'd expect from wheat, it should go down even easier than it looks.
MugiAnd the draft list is impressive too! Crossing classics and craft beers, with everything from Black Label to labels from Kyoto and Shizuoka, makes me want to bar-hop already!
Hop BroYeah, it's great to have such a wide selection near Hirakata Station. If you want to target a specific beer, going on arrival day is the way to do it, and this is definitely the kind of place that makes you want to work through the lineup from the first pour.
MugiAll right, I want to start by being surprised by the peanut butter one, then finish with the blueberry beer!
Hop BroNice. Then I'll slot in the HAZY IPA and finish with the blonde ale to round things out. Let's head straight to Hirakata tonight and compare the Belching Beaver beers in order.
