Hop BroSakazuki Brewing in Adachi, Tokyo, put out its April 4 taps. The headline is, of course, the return of 《Origins Golden Ale》.
MugiWhat, it disappeared for a while? So this is a return by reintroduction, right? It feels kind of dramatic!
Hop BroExactly. It was originally the house beer at 'Origins Table,' and it's based on an American Golden Ale.
MugiWait, what? Golden but American? Like a blond American? Style names are so confusing!
Hop BroBasically, it's a bright, easy-drinking type. And the fresh coriander character adds aroma, so it's not just light.
MugiCoriander, the spice!? Putting spice in beer feels like a pretty wild move!
Hop BroBut for this reintroduction, it spent about two months resting in the barrel and apparently clarification progressed. So it's clearer than before, with sharper definition.
MugiOhhh! So it didn't just come back, it actually grew in flavor!
Hop BroExactly. The aroma from the American hops and the crispness of the Pilsner malt come through more clearly, so it goes down smoothly but still leaves an impression.
MugiAnd there's 《shy girl》 and 《Stardust》 and the other taps too, so just the phrase luxurious 18-tap lineup is enough to tempt me!
Hop BroThen today at Sakazuki, let's start with a glass of 《Origins Golden Ale》. It's the kind of thing that makes you want to check it out early and even do a tasting comparison.
MugiAgreed! I'm already totally in beer mode, and I want to drink right now!
Tokyo's Adachi Ward Sakazuki Brewing announced its tap lineup for April 4. In this post, the 18-tap lineup was revealed, and the reintroduction of 《Origins Golden Ale》 is the biggest topic.
This beer is a crisp, refreshing take based on an American Golden Ale, with the fresh aroma of coriander added. It was originally brewed as a house beer for the restaurant 'Origins Table,' which closed in February this year, and service had been paused after the restaurant shut down. This time, the tap that had been empty for a while finally connected again, bringing it back to the lineup.
According to the brewery, about two months of maturation and clarification in the barrel have made it clearer and more beautiful than before. They say the flavor has also shed unnecessary elements, making the American hop aroma and the crispness of the Pilsner malt easier to appreciate.
The day's lineup included
- 《shy girl》 Bohemian Pilsner
- 《Fugetsu Pale Ale》 English Pale Ale
- 《Stardust》 Hazy IPA
- 《Time Thief》 English Brown Ale
- 《Twilight Black》 British Imperial Stout
and a wide range of beers, from classics to more distinctive choices. Among them, 《Fugetsu Pale Ale》 was announced as close to selling out, making it an active day across the taps.
