This is a 13th posting.

 

It’s a coincidence.

One day I opened the fridge and took a bottle of IPA as usual.

There were many kinds of IPA I’ve never tried before, so some of them were delicious but some of them were not good. 

 

What do you think this time?

I won!!! I like it. 

Its label is written all in English, so I understood it is not made in Japan.

That’s American IPA.


I met up with my friend at a Mexican restaurant that evening in Daikanyama, Tokyo.

So amazing restaurant. Since my friend reserved a table on the deck, I could see a beautiful view. And night breeze was so good too.

To my surprise, there is IPA !! 

It was my first time to drink IPA in a restaurant. I always drink IPA in a bar.

I arrived early so I enjoyed IPA alone.

After I got home, I happened to look out the label that I had for lunch. And I found that it was the same IPA as that I had in the Mexican restaurant.

 

FAHOM IPA

Then my brain remembered BALLAS POINT.


You know, this coincidence is not over yet.

 

 I often use Shinkansen a lot and my hobby is to drink beer in Shinkansen while writing my blog. It is my pastime.

I always get some IPA at Seijo Ishii Supermarket in Toyohashi Station, and I come back to Tokyo. I found BALLAST POINT IPA there! It’s new!

 

It was only 5 days after the day I drunk it in the restaurant.

 

I realized that BALLAST POINT had called me.

Looking back on brewery life in America 013
I’m gonna introduce Mikerphone Brewing.

I went there on the last day of Chicago.

So great!, So hazy. 

 

 

Even though it is located in rural are, there were many people inside the brewery.

I was struggle with finding my seat.

My favorite coaster is this one.

But my husband is angry with me saying “This coaster can be only available at Chicago.

 

Think you for reading my articles.
