Mukuraf taps Minoh Beer's 'Kokusan Momo Weizen Wase' with West Coast Brewing bottles
At Mukuraf, a beer pub in Shinnobashi, the newest draft is Minoh Beer's 'Kokusan Momo Weizen Wase.' The bar is also stocked with bottles from West Coast Brewing and GOODHOPS, making it easy to drink in or take beer home.
Hop BroMukuraf in Shin-Ohashi just tapped a new Minoh Beer today. It’s ‘Domestic Peach Weizen Wase,’ and it sounds exactly like the kind of seasonal pour you want right now.
MugiWait, a peach weizen!? That already sounds delicious, and what does “Wase” mean, like the peach showed up early for roll call?
Hop BroExactly, Domestic Peach Weizen Wase is one of Minoh Beer’s seasonal favorites. It has real peachy fruit character, but it doesn’t shove sweetness at you, so it stays soft and refreshing.
MugiOoh, not-too-sweet peach is a huge win. If it’s not syrupy, I could absolutely keep sipping that.
Hop BroThat balance comes from weizen yeast esters, which is where I start sounding like a beer gremlin. The soft wheat malt and lifted aroma make the peach note come through really cleanly.
MugiHold on, what even is an ester!? You can’t just turn happy hour into chemistry class while my brain is foaming over here!
Hop BroSimple version: it shapes the aroma. It’s one of the things that creates those fruity, expressive notes, and here it helps boost that gentle peach impression.
MugiOkay, that I get! And the article says six taps are pouring, right? A sansho ale, a Juicy IPA, a Hazy IPA... I’d be frozen in front of the menu for ten minutes.
Hop BroAnd the very Mukuraf move is the stacked bottle list. West Coast Brewing brings ‘Freestyle Sandbox8’ Hazy DIPA and ‘Analog Glow’ West Coast IPA, while GOODHOPS adds IPA options like ‘Xroad’ Session IPA, so you can mix draft and bottle however you want.
MugiWow, keg takeaway too? That’s ridiculously good. One pint with food in Shin-Ohashi, then another style to take home... yeah, now I completely want a drink.
