Kichijoji P2B Haus features 12 beers on the 3/31 taps, including CTO IPA and AKIRA ACT
At the beer pub P2B Haus in Kichijoji, the tap list as of March 31 featured 12 craft beers, including the house ale CTO IPA, Hoppukotan's AKIRA ACT, and NOMCRAFT Brewing's Whole New World. The selection ranged broadly from IPA to lager to tripel.
Hop BroAt Kichijoji's P2B Haus, the taps are in a really fun state as of March 31. The anchor is CTO IPA, and from there they have a full lineup of 12 beers, mostly from domestic breweries.
MugiWow! Twelve beers on tap means that's already the kind of place that makes you happy before you even choose. But IPA, lager, and all those names are kind of a maze just by themselves!
Hop BroThat's what makes it interesting. This time the style range is wide, so you can work your way through everything from aroma-focused beers to easy-drinking ones in order.
MugiWhat even is that! Belgian Tripel and Hazy Pale Ale sound way too stylish all of a sudden... I'd probably faint before ordering!
Hop BroFor example, a Belgian Tripel is the kind of beer where the malt sweetness and yeast-derived aromas come through softly. It's nice that P2B Haus includes distinctive beers like AKIRA ACT alongside the lineup.
MugiOhhh! So AKIRA ACT is the kind of beer that looks strong but tastes refined? Even the name already feels like the star of the show!
Hop BroExactly. And because there are lighter beers too, like the Hazy Pale Ale SPRING BREEZE, it doesn't start out too heavy. If you add in the fruity character of Sakurazaka Pale Ale, the flow feels really smooth.
MugiWait, they even have a Fruits Ale with Cherry!? If I drank that, I'd be floating around in full spring hanami mode!
Hop BroThey also have NOMCRAFT Brewing beers like Whole New World and Habano Noir, so you can really feel the individuality of the IPA side. Finishing with a Pilsner gives the whole tasting session a nice sense of closure.
MugiI see, so the last Pilsner resets your palate! This already sounds like a little trip just from drinking them in order.
Hop BroThe strength of P2B Haus is that in a calm Kichijoji beer pub, you can try them little by little with a meal. This is definitely a lineup that makes you want a night built around tasting side by side.
MugiGot it, tonight one drink in Kichijoji isn't going to be enough! I'm going to work my way from CTO IPA onward and properly sink into the beer rabbit hole too!
