MAHOWBREW's Don't worry be happy -Sour Saison- is on tap at Saioushorse
Saioushorse, a beer pub in Sannomiya, Kobe, has tapped MAHOWBREW's Don't worry be happy -Sour Saison-. The sour saison brings lemongrass, coriander seed, shekwasha peel, and juniper berry, with a light, brisk profile at 6.5% ABV and 14 IBU.
Hop BroSannomiya just got a fun one at Saiohgauma: MAHOWBREW from Okinawa has a fresh sour saison on tap called 'Don't worry be happy -Sour Saison-'.
MugiWait, that name is too cheerful! What does it actually taste like?
Hop BroIt uses lemongrass, coriander seed, shikuwasa peel, and juniper berry, so it's citrus and herbs everywhere. Tart, but still super light on its feet.
MugiWhat, what even is juniper berry? That sounds like an ingredient from a forest wizard's pantry!
Hop BroIt says berry, but it's really a spice used in gin, and it adds a clean, snappy aroma. Total supporting actor with main-character impact.
MugiAnd ABV 6.5% with IBU 14 sounds light? The second numbers show up, I feel like I'm being quizzed!
Hop BroIBU is the bitterness scale, so 14 means pretty gentle bitterness. Even at 6.5%, the acidity and herbs keep it from feeling heavy.
MugiSo at Saiohgauma it's a dangerously easy sipper? Hold on, easy-drinking at 6.5% is exactly how chaos begins!
Hop BroExactly, that's the trap. And it's also a three-way collaboration between Kiyosaku of MONGOL800, Akira Nakasato of OneSpirit, and MAHOWBREW, so the backstory is strong too.
MugiWhoa, the backstory has flavor too! Getting Okinawa vibes in Kobe sounds like an automatic after-work detour.
Hop BroThey also mention the related Ginger Gose release, so the whole project feels bigger, but first I want a happy first pour of this one and that citrusy snap.
MugiLocked in. This is my first glass tonight. If the beer says don't worry, I'm fully prepared to obey!
