Hop BroSomething interesting just hit the taps in Ikebukuro. At Beer Pub Camden Ikebukuro East, Marlowe Artisanal Ales from New York has poured Shoveling Sunshine as a guest beer.
MugiWhat, that name already feels bright! Scooping up sunshine sounds like it should come with free happiness!
Hop BroAnd the style is West Coast IPA with 7.0% ABV. So it should have real presence, but probably with a modern drinkable edge.
MugiWhoa, okay! But when I hear ABV 7.0% I suddenly get nervous, like I’m being graded on a beer exam.
Hop BroABV just means alcohol by volume. It’s basically the strength marker , and 7.0% usually gives an IPA enough body and punch to feel satisfying.
MugiGot it! So West Coast IPA doesn’t just mean an aggressively bitter IPA ? I was expecting my tongue to get slapped around.
Hop BroThat’s the fun part here. Modern West Coast IPA isn’t only about bitterness and pine anymore; now it leans into freshness, expressive aroma, and easier drinkability too.
MugiNo way, it evolved! So instead of the old-school tough guy, it’s more like the fresh cool type now?
Hop BroExactly. And Camden’s list already includes Orion, PUNK IPA, Totopia, Teenage, and Trademark, so this lands inside a really diverse tap lineup , which makes it even better.
MugiThat lineup in Ikebukuro East is unfair in the best way! At this point the guest tap is mandatory , and I absolutely want to stop by for Shoveling Sunshine.
