Hop BroBig announcement in Shibuya! CIDER SHACK has posted a teaser for a Matsumoto Brewery TTO, and next week is looking seriously lively.
MugiWait, what is a TTO? Is that like a live show? My hands are shaking just seeing up to 10 taps planned!
Hop BroTTO stands for Tap Takeover, meaning one brewery basically takes over the taps in a big way. This time, it's likely you'll be able to compare a whole range centered on Matsumoto Brewery!
MugiOhhh! So even a beginner like me can go? What does the Alpen Lager opening mentioned in the post taste like?
Hop BroAlpen Lager is, by style, a lager. Because it's fermented and matured at low temperatures, it tends to have a clean finish. It's the kind of beer you can smoothly enjoy on the weekend.
MugiLow-temperature fermentation suddenly sounds like science class! But basically, you mean it's a super easy-drinking beer, right!?
Hop BroExactly! And the location is CIDER SHACK, on the first floor of Okuyama Building, 1-27-9 Higashi, Shibuya-ku, with hours of Mon-Fri 17:00-24:00 and Sat, Sun, holidays 14:00-24:00.
MugiThat is so easy to visit! And basically no regular closing days too, right? That is way too perfect for matching schedules!
Hop BroBut the event date itself still isn't listed, so you'll need to check the next post for the official schedule and lineup. This is information warfare.
MugiGot it, I'll turn on notifications and wait! Next week, let's go together and toast with a Matsumoto Brewery tasting lineup!
