Hop BroMOONRISE KINGDOM in Nishi-Shinjuku just refreshed its weekend taps, and the three fresh pours are a seriously good lineup.
MugiWhat, in Nishi-Shinjuku? Hearing weekend tap update already sounds like a dangerous detour for me!
Hop BroThis round has Siesta from Karuizawa Q, DAY OVER from BLACK TIDE BREWING, and Jacaranda from Y.MARKET BREWING, with a lager-centered lineup plus a summery IPA twist.
MugiHold on, what does lager-centered lineup even mean? Why are you talking like the beers have positions on a soccer team?
Hop BroIt means the easy-drinking lagers set the base, then Jacaranda as a Summer IPA adds aroma on top. It creates a flow of flavors across the lineup.
MugiOhhh, so it starts light and then the aroma cranks up the mood. That feels like a summer staircase in beer form!
Hop BroExactly. And Siesta is a Mexican-style lager with lime and sudachi, so it sounds perfect for hot weather and fast, refreshing sips.
MugiLime and sudachi? That's a citrus double feature. The glass is basically on summer vacation already!
Hop BroDAY OVER is a mellow lager for winding down, so it should pair nicely with beef birria or carnitas tacos, while Jacaranda brings hop-forward aroma that can stand up to garlic shrimp.
MugiNow my stomach and my throat are yelling at the same time. If I can do a burrito beer flight, I have to go this weekend!
Hop BroAnd they also have 30 bottled beers from Japan and abroad, so beyond the taps you can explore at leisure at MOONRISE KINGDOM.
MugiThat settles it. At MOONRISE KINGDOM I want to seriously debate my first pour choice before I even sit down: Siesta or Jacaranda?
