What's the update on it now it's had a little time to mature?
Unfortunately, I haven't had a good opportunity to sample it in the past few weeks. I did have a party at a friend's house that I took a keg to, but I didn't think it was right to spring the Hop 10 Cubed on them.
This weekend during the American Football playoffs, live, I'll pour a pint or two and report back.
I've got a 12 hour transit between Singapore/Tokyo/Vancouver whereby the plane lands at 7:05am Monday 22 January and my flight out to Vancouver is at 7pm.
Damn -- any Monday but the 22nd is free -- only on the 22nd I have tests at school that it's impossible for me to get out of.
After my Vancouver leg, I return to Tokyo on Tuesday 31 Jan at 3:20pm.....I leave Japan Sunday 18 Feb at 9pm
I have a lot of free time during that period, so if you are in the Tokyo area, most likely I'll have time to meet up with you. Or if you're anywhere near Numazu in Shizuoka, I can run down to Baird Beer for the best micros in Japan. When you do set your schedule, let me know and we'll see what we can work out.
Otherwise I might have to organise a bottle to be sent to where I'm staying [of course I'd pay you for postage etc]
Hell, you give me an address and I'll send you a care package. Shipping is cheap here, so no worries there. I'll just have to make sure that I have some of the good stuff bottled up for you -- right now most of my beers are in kegs of various sizes. But, I should be able to get a nice box of 12 beers or so ready for you in time -- IPAs, the Hop 10 Cubed, a Schwarzbier Ale that I just made up, an IIPA, and maybe even a fruit beer or two, if those are something you might like. Might as well have at least a few good beers while you're here. B)
Okay, I'll get that keg of the Hop 10 moved to the front of the beer fridge so I can taste and post on Sunday. :super:
