MugiWhat! Shonan Gold? That sounds like the name of some citrus fruit.
Hop BroExactly. It's a fruit beer made with a Kanagawa-born citrus, and its appeal is the way the aroma bursts out.
MugiWow, it already sounds like it has a fruity aroma before you even drink it!
Hop BroAnd since it's a spring-summer seasonal release, it's definitely a seasonal beer you want to drink as soon as you see it.
MugiBut fruit beer makes me think it might be too sweet. What do you mean by a light, easy-drinking finish?
Hop BroThat's the key. Even though the aroma is bright and vibrant, the aftertaste is crisp, so that's Shonan Gold's strength: it isn't cloyingly sweet.
MugiI see! Being able to drink that at BOKKE in Minamibori-cho, Matsuyama City, makes me really happy!
Hop BroOn April 22, they open at 5 p.m., there are seats available, and BEER COOLER BAG is also on sale, so it's friendly for people who want to take beer home too.
MugiStop by after work, have one inside, then take more home... the flow of wanting to drink right now is complete!
Hop BroThen tonight, let's toast together to Shonan Gold, wrapped in the scent of spring, at BOKKE.
MugiAgreed! I'm already in the mood to drink starting at 5 p.m. today!
“Shonan Gold” is on tap for the first time this season at BOKKE
On April 22, the beer pub “BOKKE” at 5-6 Minamibori-cho in Matsuyama City posted that it would be open “from 5 p.m.” The shop also said, “We have seating available,” setting up a relaxed environment where guests can enjoy drinks inside. The post also included the line, “Our popular BEER COOLER BAG is on sale now,” showing that the shop is offering ways to enjoy craft beer both inside and outside the bar.
The most notable part of the post is the announcement: “The first Shonan Gold of the season has been on tap since yesterday.” Shonan Gold is a fruit beer from Sankt Gallen. It is a spring-summer seasonal brew made with the citrus fruit of the same name developed in Kanagawa Prefecture, and its appeal lies in the bright, aromatic fragrance derived from the citrus and its light, easy-drinking finish. It is known as a beer that balances the aroma that bursts out the moment it is poured with a crisp aftertaste.

The fact that they are quick to connect a spring staple like this is exactly why beer lovers want to stop by.
