PORT LUCK CLUB taps Inkhorn Brewing's Mejiro 2026_2
On its July 5 post, PORT LUCK CLUB in Miyamachi, Aoba Ward, Sendai introduced Mejiro 2026_2 from Tokyo-based Inkhorn Brewing. The Hazy IPA comes in at 7.0% ABV and is presented as a balanced, fruit-forward flagship beer.
Hop BroToday I've got a good one: Mejiro 2026_2 just went on at PORT LUCK CLUB in Sendai. It's Inkhorn Brewing's flagship Hazy IPA, and apparently it's a long-awaited return.
MugiWait, that already sounds serious! So it's back again because people were actually waiting for it?
Hop BroExactly, and the style is Hazy IPA. Think of an IPA with a cloudy look, huge aroma, and bitterness that doesn't come in too sharp.
MugiHold on, what does hazy mean? Nice to know the beer is foggy, not just my understanding!
Hop BroThat's the key part. It often gives the beer a soft, pillowy texture, which helps the juicy fruit character stand out. Fluffy to look at, easy to drink.
MugiWhoa, pink guava, peach, and passion fruit? That's basically a tropical fruit parade. This beer sounds like it packed for vacation!
Hop BroAnd here's the clever bit: it's light and silky on the palate, then finishes with a gentle bitterness, so the sweetness never gets too loud. Perfect for hot weather.
MugiSilky makes it sound like I'm drinking a blouse, but you mean smooth and easy in the best way, right? And 7.0% means it still has some punch!
Hop BroRight, and that 7.0% is important too. It was adjusted back up a little, aiming for a summer-ready Hazy that still feels easy to keep drinking.
MugiNow all I can picture is one cold glass in Sendai! If PORT LUCK CLUB is pouring Inkhorn Brewing's Mejiro 2026_2, I want a toast immediately!
