There comes a point in life in Japan when your usual lager no longer feels exciting enough. You have learned the izakaya menu, discovered your favorite convenience store snacks, and started exploring different beer styles. Now, you want something with more aroma and character. If that sounds familiar, NINJA BLOOM IPA deserves your attention.
NINJA BLOOM IPA: A Floral Japanese Craft Beer
NINJA BLOOM IPA comes from the Ninja line by Nippon Craft Beer. This modern Japanese craft beer series celebrates distinctive themed releases. NINJA BLOOM IPA offers a floral take on the traditional India Pale Ale (IPA).
At 4.5% ABV, it delivers a lighter drinking experience than many stronger IPAs. Its deep golden color gives it an inviting appearance. Meanwhile, floral hop aromas provide its most distinctive character. A light malt body supports the aroma without overwhelming it.
The word “bloom” in its name reflects this floral character. Rather than focusing entirely on bitterness, the beer emphasizes aromatic hops. Consequently, it offers an approachable option for drinkers who enjoy fragrant beers.
NINJA BLOOM IPA also suits relaxed evenings with friends. Its moderate alcohol content makes it an interesting choice for longer social gatherings. However, its defining feature remains the floral aroma.
The product information identifies Japan as its country of origin. However, it does not confirm one specific brewing location. Similarly, detailed information about its hop varieties and brewing process remains limited. Therefore, we focus on the available product characteristics.
Each can contains 350ml, and Omori Mart sells it in cases of 24.
How to Enjoy NINJA BLOOM IPA in Japan
In Japan, a drinking occasion usually begins with Kanpai (乾杯). Pronounced KAHN-pie, the expression means “cheers.” Friends and colleagues raise their glasses together before taking their first sip.
One popular setting for this ritual is the nomikai. These after-work drinking gatherings bring colleagues and friends together. Moreover, NINJA BLOOM IPA’s floral character makes it an interesting alternative to regular lager at an izakaya.
Try it with yakitori, Japan’s famous grilled chicken skewers. The floral hop aroma complements the smoky, grilled flavors. You can also start with edamame, young soybeans traditionally served with salt.
As the evening continues, order some otsumami. These small Japanese bar snacks include pickled vegetables, fried treats, and dried seafood. Their different textures and flavors create plenty of interesting food pairings.
Japan’s spring season offers another opportunity to enjoy this beer. During hanami, people gather beneath cherry blossom trees to enjoy food and drinks. Since the name BLOOM evokes flowers, this IPA makes a fitting companion for a spring gathering.
The Best Way to Drink NINJA BLOOM IPA
For the best experience, serve NINJA BLOOM IPA chilled but not ice-cold. Pour it into a clean glass to appreciate its golden color. More importantly, a glass allows its floral hop aroma to develop.
For a simple snack pairing, try salted cashews from Lawson. Their rich, slightly buttery flavor complements the aromatic character of an IPA. Alternatively, pair the beer with karaage, Japan’s popular Japanese-style fried chicken.
The hop character balances the richness of the fried coating. As a result, each sip helps refresh your palate between bites.
NINJA BLOOM IPA particularly suits spring, when cherry blossoms appear across Japan. During this season, mild temperatures encourage outdoor meals and relaxed evenings. Therefore, its floral character fits naturally into the atmosphere.
At a Tokyo craft beer bar, an IPA can cost ¥900 or more per can or glass. However, buying a full case from Omori Mart can lower the cost per can.
