MugiWhoa! An Oni Densetsu IPA sounds strong just from the name! Why does "Hinankoya" make a beer sound like a mountain hut?
Hop BroThat's because it's a collaboration for AiD STATION, which is opening in Otsuka, Tokyo. It's a launch commemorative brew, and what's interesting is that it's not just a buzzworthy beer, it's thoughtfully designed too.
MugiHuh! But Krush, Nelson, and Citra sound like a spell all of a sudden! What do you put in it to get names like that?
Hop BroThose are hop variety names. The peach-like aroma is layered with white grape notes and citrus, creating depth in the aroma. As an IPA design, it's pretty current.
MugiWow, that sounds so good! But IPAs are supposed to be bitter, so is the soft mouthfeel really true?
Hop BroIt really is. It starts smooth on the palate, but then a solid bitterness comes through at the end, so it still has plenty of body. And the fact that it has that "Kinoni-like" character is a point that fans will really appreciate.
MugiWhat does that even mean! Kinoni-like? Are the demons changing the flavor by type? That's kind of funny, like they're holding a meeting!
Hop BroYeah, it does sound like a demon meeting. In short, it has a good balance of bright aroma and drinkability. Finding it at a place like HOP MAN, where people follow guest beers, is the kind of thing that makes you happy.
MugiNow I totally want to drink it! I'm in the mood to head straight for the glass today! Hop bro, let's toast like we're about to defeat a demon together!
