Hop BroThere’s a guest beer from Hideji Beer at BEER CAFE GAMBRINUS, just a short walk from the south exit of Kokubunji Station. Beer lovers are really going to be into this one.
MugiWait, a beer pub just one minute from the station!? That’s basically too close to be real. At that point, you pretty much have to stop in before heading home!
Hop BroAnd on top of that, it’s been around since 2007, has 14 taps, and even serves homemade dishes by Japanese chef Ichi. As a place to drink, it’s seriously strong.
MugiWho is Chef Ichi? Sounds impressive! But what kind of beer is it that goes well with homemade dishes?
Hop BroThis time’s guest is Miyazaki Hideji Beer’s Morishizuka Pale Ale. It’s an American pale ale inspired by a quiet forest and stream, with a Cascade hop aroma that lifts softly.
MugiCascade hops already sound refreshing! But where does the hop aroma end and the beer begin?
Hop BroBasically, the citrusy and floral notes that come through your nose are the aroma, and the part that lingers on your tongue is the bitterness. This one’s known for its light bitterness, so it doesn’t feel too sharp and stays close to the food.
MugiSo it’s bitter, but gentle! And it’s a 330 ml bottle at 5%, which sounds like just the right amount to enjoy.
Hop BroExactly, and this beer also won a bronze award at IBC 2009. It sounds like it was recognized for balancing flair and drinkability.
MugiThat already sounds delicious before even drinking it! Being able to drink calmly in Kokubunji, and with no cover charge plus free Wi-Fi too? That’s amazing.
Hop BroYeah, I want to finish work quickly today and have a drink with some Japanese-style snacks. Let’s go drink while wrapped in the scent of the forest.
MugiI’m in! I’m already in the mood for a drink in Kokubunji!
