Mugibaru in Nishikamata announces tap list featuring COEDO "Zenka" and 8 other brews
The beer pub Mugibaru in Kamata, Tokyo, announced on Instagram that it would be refreshing its tap list. In the post, it introduced the day’s lineup, including COEDO "Zenka" and Vertere "Magnolia," along with a new IPA candidate from Yellow Monkey Brewing.
Hop BroMugibaru's tap update in Nishikamata is pretty bold today. From COEDO's "Zenka" to Vertere's "Magnolia," you can really feel the excitement of a lineup that's about to change.
MugiWait, they even say the beers are changing today for sure? A place with taps that move around that much would be fun just to keep up with.
Hop BroThe highlight is COEDO's Zenka Session IPA. At 4.5%, it's light, but the hop aroma still comes through. A Session IPA is designed to keep it easy to drink while still letting you enjoy the aroma.
MugiWhat even is a Session IPA? A beer that's light but aromatic sounds almost unfair. But once the jargon starts, you sound like a beer professor.
Hop BroExactly. It's for people who want moderate alcohol but still want a satisfying beer. And then the next one is Vertere's "Magnolia" Double IPA at 8%, so it's interesting how the center of gravity changes all at once even though it's still IPA.
Mugi8%! And they've got Y.Market's Minamichita BLOOD ORANGE IPA and WCB's "Summer Breeze" DDH Hazy IPA too? Fruit and haze are all colliding here!
Hop BroAnd on NEXT, Yellow Monkey Brewing's Godzone Beat is waiting, an NZ Double IPA at 8.5%. New Zealand hops tend to bring out white-grape-like notes, citrus, and a little tropical character, so the aroma layers come through really cleanly.
MugiWhoa, the words are suddenly getting long! And what is DDH, what is Hazy? My head is all foam now!
Hop BroDDH means double dry-hopped, basically brewed for extra aroma. Then Isekadoya Beer’s "Hat Trick" TDH Hazy IPA is coming too, so Mugibaru is in a state that IPA fans will love.
MugiI get it. And the Japanese snacks go perfectly with it too. If we were drinking while nibbling on dashimaki tamago with shirasu and shiso, we'd end up getting completely swallowed up by Mugibaru!
