A light, refreshing, and bright Summer IPA, bursting with tropical fruit flavour
[Character]This moderately hazy Session IPA blends soft East Coast fruity flavours with the low ABV and drinakability of a West Coast-style session IPA. With Mosaic, Peacharine, and Motueka, this beer is loaded with tropical hop character, and its crisp drinkability is perfect for warm weather.[Food Pairing]Fried white fish topped with salad, okra and citrus, slow cooked pork belly tacos, watermelon and feta cheese tartine[Naming]In restaurants in Japan, one may well see "chef no kimagure" on the menu, which essentially means "what the chef feels like", and is typically seasonally based, with local ingredients that he thinks will work together, we wanted to bring this into beer, creating an IPA fitting to the season, and based on what we see and fancy using right now in our hop storage![Brewer's Voice]Our Summer edition of our seasonal IPA series is all about being a beer for the Japanese heat. Keeping it light and refreshing, we went for a very drinkable 4.5%, maintaining a dry and crisp body, but this time made with a blend of Pilsner, Vienna, wheat and oats. To compliment this base, we wanted to use hops that had a bright fruit character, and so we went with Mosaic, taking advantage of its softness, with bright berry and tropical fruit flavours. Mosaic hops always have a great summertime vibe to them, and we paired it with Peacharine on the hot side, a New Zealand hop that helps round out the Mosaic by contributing some nectarine, citrus, and floral notes. For the dry hop, in addition to more Mosaic, we added some Motueka, another New Zealand hop that is known for its lemon-lime zest character. This is a very aromatic hop that is well suited for later additions. The goal with these hops was to mimic the experience of walking through an orchard in summertime, enjoying the wonderful aromas of ripe fruit and flowers all in a beverage. The final key to this beer was the fermentation of it with a London ale strain known for also contributing soft fruit flavors, and adding to a hazy appearance. We hope you agree that this beer stays drinkable on even the hottest of Kyoto Summer days, while still being loaded with flavour.StyleSession IPASeriesKimagureABV4.5%IBU30Gas Volume2.65OthersFlaked WheatCategoryBeerJAN4589718742472Shipping Start2025/05/01Regarding shipping datesPlease note that, when multiple items are ordered together, they will be shipped out after the shipping start date of the latest product in the order.Best Before充填日より6か月
