MugiWhoa, that name already sounds intense! Does Oni no Hinan Goya give off that feeling of taking a break in the mountains?
Hop BroExactly. Since it's a collaboration IPA, the character of both breweries is packed tightly into one beer.
MugiPacked tightly with what? Does the outline of the hops really come through that clearly?
Hop BroIt does. The aroma and bitterness stand out without being blurred, and when you drink it from a guest beer keg like the one at Two Fingers, the appeal comes through very clearly.
MugiOhh! That long-distance team-up between Noboribetsu in Hokkaido and Otsuka in Tokyo is kind of romantic.
Hop BroAnd Oni Densetsu's naming sense is front and center too, so just the name that makes you want to drink it could get you through a whole glass.
MugiI get it! If you find it in Ikebukuro, it's definitely a must-check beer in the Ikebukuro area.
Hop BroBeing able to taste it at Two Fingers on Nishi-Ikebukuro 3-23-3 is great too, and drinking the crossing of breweries right on tap is the best.
MugiNow I feel like I want to take refuge in the Oni no Hinan Goya today! First one glass, no, make that two!
