Hop BroToday’s release from Far Yeast Brewing is built for summer. The limited Far Yeast Sumomo Salty Sour just landed.
MugiWait, a plum beer? My brain can’t decide if that’s dessert or a drink!
Hop BroIt uses Oishi Wase plums from Kikushima Seiyodo Higashi Shiten in Fuefuki, Yamanashi, which is exactly the kind of local ingredient move I like.
MugiOkay, but Fruited Gose With Sumomo sounds like a spell a wizard casts before happy hour.
Hop BroGose is a salty, tart style from Germany, so the fun is that little snap of salt layered over bright acidity.
MugiWhat is that, a mid-summer rescue drink? That sounds dangerously crushable.
Hop BroAnd they carefully managed two different yeasts this time, so it stays approachable instead of going full mad scientist.
MugiImpressive, but ABV 4.5 and IBU 10 still sound like secret beer math to me, professor!
Hop BroABV 4.5 means light, IBU 10 means low bitterness, and Saaz hops usually keep the aroma neat and elegant.
MugiSo in the glass you get fresh-picked plum aroma, then juicy fruit with a crisp salty finish? That’s absurdly summer.
Hop BroExactly, and with their brewery in Kosuge plus all that Yamanashi ingredient focus, the story behind it tastes good too.
MugiIt went on sale online August 5, and ships nationwide from August 6, right? I want one cold immediately, and I’m dragging you with me.
