WCBのユニフォームを纏いしHop Dudeが、爽快なダンクシュートを決める。チームWCBと接戦を繰り広げるのは……Mr.AQ率いる『AQ Bevolution』🔥 試合終わりの乾杯のために、大人げない(？！)ほどに闘志を燃やし、本気の戦いが幕を開ける。ビール愛で繋がれた絆は、時にビールを賭けた戦いに。
AQ10周年記念ビール第2弾として、ポスタライズダンクをかますHop Dudeが仕掛けたのは、先月に続き、「Knee Deep Brewing」とのコラボ2作目！タイミング良く来日していたDeanとレシピの意見交換をして、WCB流のHazyにKnee Deepのエッセンスを注入。
ダンクなアロマにはパイナップルの印象。果汁あふれるグレープフルーツや甘夏、はっさくなどの黄色い柑橘の風味と、全体を通して感じるダンクさ。ジューシーな口当たりには柑橘皮の白い部分のような、ほろ苦感◎。
バスケには熱く真剣に勝負、ひとたび試合が終われば仲良くビールを飲む仲。EikyuユニフォームのHop Dudeが名プレーを繰り出した話はまたの機会に……。
Dunking on AQ🏀 /endthread
Round two of our Knee Deep collab series, this one was cooked up during Dean's visit to the Shiz for the AQ 10th anniversary bash🥳 Borrowing some Knee Deep details and new/experimental lupulin varietals (and an A38/Verdant combo move), our Alchemist boosted the hops (puns forever) of our best Hop Dude streetballers, posterizing the competition in the process💪🏼 HBC 630 and Lorien hop additions complement a massive dose of Nelson in this one, giving Poster Haze huge hits of berry, white grape / peach and floral notes not often found in WCB hazies. Why shoot the 3 when you can drive and stick it to your buds poster-style? After several sips we honestly don't know. Gonna be taking our pals hard to the rim from here on out, and no old-man gyoza excuses (reasons) allowed😘

WCB Poster Haze
Hazy Double IP 8.5%
At 1280¥ for a small prices for hoppy beers are getting pretty high these days. The smell in WCB Umeda was hop heaven and this milky honey gold with thin wisps of foam delivered a healthy dose of ripe tropical fruits.
Medium to full bodied but I found the carbonation a touch aggressive. The taste on this was good though with loads of juicy hops but with a tangy citrus undertone. Nice stuff.
Not bad! Grape and tart. Lots of Haze of course, but not so hazy ipa taste.
