Kirin Serves Up Hot Beer
Kirin’s popular Ichiban Shibori Stout
You never know what’s going to come out of that wacky place called Japan. Recently the beer meisters at Kirin Brewery brewed up the idea of having a hot mug of beer during the cold winter season.
How’s this for a winter treat?
Kirin’s latest concoction is based on their Ichiban Shibori Stout dark beer and is currently being test marketed in house at their main brewery in Yokohama. Kirin suggests serving the beverage at 50 degree Celsius (about 122 degree Fahrenheit) with a cinnamon stick and brown sugar cubes on the side. When you’re ready to drink you should stir the beer to give it a frothy head like cappuccino, which brings out its flavorful aroma.
According to Kirin they chose the Ichiban Shibori Stout series because this premium dark beer is made with carefully selected blend of caramel and roasted barley, then twice filtered. The result is an irresistible and luxurious deep aroma that’s further accentuated by the heating process.
Kirin also mentioned about serving the heated stout over vanilla ice cream…hot stout beer float anyone?
