Sakura Taps taps Shirosuzume’s Sentaku Biyori in Yokohama

Hop BroToday's topic is a fresh Sakura Taps pour: Shirosuzume's 'Laundry Day' just tapped at Sakura Taps in Hanasakicho, Yokohama.
MugiWait, that name Laundry Day already sounds ridiculously refreshing! Is this beer supposed to taste cleaner than my apartment?
Hop BroThat's the fun of it. It's an American Wheat ale, built on a fresh-baked bread aroma from wheat malt, with soft floral and mandarin-like notes on top.
MugiWhoa, but what is wheat beer here? Are we basically drinking liquid toast?
Hop BroThat is an aggressive theory. ABV 4.5%, IBU 16 means light alcohol, gentle bitterness, and a smooth mouthfeel thanks to all that wheat.
MugiWhat even is IBU 16? It sounds like a test score I'd try to hide!
Hop BroIBU is the bitterness scale. Sixteen is pretty mellow, and when brewers say nuance, they mean faint aromas like flowers and mikan drifting up.
MugiOkay, fresh-baked bread aroma with flowers and citrus? Now I feel like I'm walking past a stylish bakery with a pint in my hand.
Hop BroExactly, and it's great with seasonal dishes. This isn't a hop bomb; it's a soft, grainy, easy drink that fits a casual stop around Kannai or Noge. Now I want one too.
MugiThen it's settled: one pint right now. I want to grab 'Laundry Day' at Sakura Taps and give my throat the sunny afternoon it deserves!
