Far Yeast Brewing to Start Serving Gotanda-Exclusive "Gotanda Erotic Hazy IPA"

Hop BroToday’s new arrival, Gotanda Erotic Hazy IPA, is finally on the way. It’s Far Yeast Brewing’s Gotanda-exclusive tap.
MugiWhoa, that name is intense! But I’m intrigued, it really starts on March 21?
Hop BroFor real. It’s only at Far Yeast Tokyo in Nishi-Gotanda, and there are no cans, draft only.
MugiWhat! So I can’t drink it at home? Only 15L keg service? That’s seriously rare!
Hop BroRight, it’s designed for drinking in the bar. And with muscat in the mix, it’s a Hazy IPA aimed at a silky mouthfeel.
MugiOhhh! But I saw the spec says IBU 10. What’s so impressive about that?
Hop BroIt means the bitterness is kept low, so the focus is on drinkability. The key point is how Citra Cryo and the others bring out that ripe fruit aroma.
MugiLow bitterness is a relief! And if it’s rich on aroma too, it seems extra friendly for craft beer beginners!
Hop BroIt’s brewed at the Genryu Brewery in Yamanashi and then lands in Gotanda, which makes the whole flow great. It’s truly a local-origin, urban-arrival beer.
MugiDecision made! I’m walking over from the West Exit and toasting the limited Hazy on site!

From a Yamanashi Brewery to an Urban Taproom
The beer originates from Far Yeast Brewing Genryu Brewery (Kosuge Village, Kitatsuru District, Yamanashi Prefecture). The company is a brewery based in Yamanashi that has developed a diverse range of brands, and it has continued to pursue limited-edition brewing that makes use of local character.
The concept of serving a beer brewed at its Yamanashi production base exclusively at its Gotanda directly operated shop is also very much in line with Far Yeast's style of presenting a beer as something that starts local and lands in the city. The attention-grabbing name may draw the eye, but the contents are arranged as a drinkable Hazy IPA, with a hop-forward build and a lower IBU design.
