Hop BroFour beers have arrived at Beer shop Llama in Mitaka from open air in Hyogo. The range is pretty wide, from mikan to IPA, and that makes it really interesting.
MugiWhat! A mikan Gose? What is that! A beer where mikan is the star sounds like an agent from the juice world!
Hop BroThat’s the good part. mikan gose uses plenty of Unshu mikan, and the peel goes into the whirlpool too, while juice is added during fermentation, so the aroma really comes through.
MugiThere’s that whirlpool again! That sounds kind of scary, like a cosmic vortex!
Hop BroSimply put, it’s the process of spinning the liquid after boiling so you can efficiently extract compounds from the hops and peel. So it’s used as a place to bring out the aroma.
MugiOhh! So cosmic tiger is one of those super aromatic beers? Even the name already sparkles!
Hop BroExactly, it’s a Hazy IPA made with Dolcita, Mosaic, Citra, and Sabro. Lychee and coconut, plus orange and white grape, come together into a soft, full aroma.
MugiWhat is that, it sounds like a fruit shop is about to open the moment you take a sip! So how is clear waves different?
Hop BroThat one is a West Coast IPA, so the crisp bitterness feels great. Nectaron adds peach and grapefruit notes, while Mosaic and Chinook bring dankness and pine, leaving a sharp finish.
MugiWow, having both sweet and bitter is the best. And if there’s even nonic, I could enjoy it even when I’m in a calmer mood!
Hop BroExactly. It has a malty aftertaste from the English IPA, with a gentle tea-like character and just a little citrus. If you line these up and drink them at Beer shop Llama, that’s pure happiness for the day.
MugiYeah, I can’t choose, so this is definitely a must-try side-by-side tasting! Start with the mikan, then finish quietly with the English IPA!
