Windows to VERTERE 2024
TDH Hazy Triple IPA / 9.0% ABV
w/Kohia Nelson, Luminosa, Motueka & Motueka Kief
WCB × VERTERE 4th Collaboration!
Hop Dudeたちの冬支度に欠かせない、VERTEREクルーとのコラボレーション。全力で駆け抜けた2024年を締めくくるに相応しい、"Windows”が今年も遂に開かれる。
静岡のあらゆる地に突如現れ、不可思議に宙に浮かぶ、謎に包まれた幾つもの窓。こちら側から、どれだけ覗き込んでみても視界に映るのは真っ白な光の世界のみ。誰の仕業なのか、何を意味するものなのか、Alchemistにも解明できない神秘の象徴。
今年も両社のブルワーが静岡⇔奥多摩を行き来し、同じメインホップ(Motueka & Motueka Hop Kief)を使用しながらも、スタイルの異なるビールを共に醸造。VERTEREの織り成す淑やかな味わいのイメージをWCB版のレシピへ落とし込み、細やかに調整をおこなっている。
あふれるトロピカルアロマに柑橘フルーツやメロンの豊かな香り。フロスティングやバブルガムを連想させる甘いアロマと、ハーブのようなフローラル感とフレッシュでグラッシーな味わいの絶妙バランス。

(WCB) — And then there were FOUR. Into the cold and drunken throes of winter 2024, like a gift from the Hop Oracle itself, the seemingly impossible has occurred: four new wandering “Windows” in Shizuoka.
The windows are rectangular objects of unknown substance, each hovering approximately 1.5m above the ground. They appeared with no warning and their origin is unknown—but their connection to the original “Window” is undeniable.
No, these aren’t the “monoliths” of 2020 fame—they are WAY better. Hop Dudes traveled to the white? world of VERTERE (and did some Zoom meetings too) to come up with this year’s collabo, a set of hi-octane brews to showcase one of our favorite Freestyle offerings—Motueka. Our Windows to VERTERE is the Big Boi hazy version, packed with Mot T90 and Kief, as well as a small (not really) dosage of Kohia Nelson and Nectaron. High ABV ripe tropical fruit waves sliding onto the Mochimune shores in December? A hazy with super low bitterness / higher perceived sweetness but still somehow manages to finish dry? We’ve got you covered. Now to start studying these Windows…
