Hop BroInkhorn Brewing’s Titipounamu 2026 is now on tap at vivo! in Ikebukuro. It’s a can’t-miss IPA for New Zealand hop fans.
MugiWhoa! That name sounds like a spell! Titipounamu 2026—what kind of beer is it?
Hop BroIt’s a New Zealand-style IPA: a clear, haze-restrained IPA built to let the hops speak plainly.
MugiClear means not cloudy? I thought every IPA was hazy! What’s the difference from hazy IPA?
Hop BroHazy IPA is loved for its juice-like cloudiness and soft texture. This one gives you sharply defined hop aroma instead.
MugiDefined aroma—like hops wearing glasses! So is it tropical and fruity?
Hop BroExactly. It layers dank aroma with notes of passion fruit and guava, plus a white-grape-like flavor.
MugiDank? Is the beer making a basketball dunk?! What even is a dank hop aroma?
Hop BroNo basketball, thankfully. It means a deep, green, slightly resinous hop scent. With the fruit notes, it becomes green freshness meets fruit.
MugiNice! Green aroma, tropical fruit, and white grape—now I want to trace the personality of the hops.
Hop Brovivo! has 20 draft lines, from pale ales and hazy IPAs to stouts. It’s perfect for a taste-by-style flight with friends.
