Hop BroOkei Brewery Nippori in Nippori has put out its April 15 tap update. It includes not only house brews but guest beers too, so it’s very much suited to side-by-side tasting.
MugiWait! Suited to side-by-side tasting means there are that many kinds? Being able to try so many beers at one place sounds incredibly fun!
Hop BroThis time there are 10 house brews, and the strength is that they’re lined up from Helles to HAZY. From the lightness of lager to hop-forward styles, it’s a lineup that shows the brewery’s range.
MugiWhoa... but Helles and HAZY and all those fancy beer terms are too much for me to keep up with!
Hop BroJust remember that Helles is a crisp lager, while HAZY IPA is hazy and aroma-driven. Okei’s flavor range is pretty wide, so it’s easy to choose based on your mood.
MugiI get it! And the names are interesting too, like Chiikara and Pineapo! — just reading them makes me laugh a little!
Hop BroExactly, that’s part of what makes Okei Brewery Nippori interesting. Even within the house-brewed lineup, there’s something like Shio no Kaze Gose, which takes a tart approach rather than relying only on sweetness or bitterness.
MugiAnother one I don't know! Does Shio no Kaze Gose actually have salt in it? Wait, beer does that too?!
Hop BroYes, gose is a style where saltiness and tartness often play a key role. Add in the Oktoberfest-style `Katakabe Oktoberfest` and `808IPA BOOST` from 808 Brewery, and they’re clearly building in a sense of seasonality too.
MugiGuest beers too, nice! `808IPA BOOST` sounds like it has real momentum, and this is definitely one of those times when one glass won’t be enough!
Hop BroAnd the location is that close to the maker in Higashi-Nippori, Arakawa Ward, Tokyo, so there’s also the fun of tracking how the kegs change over time. They even mention an all-you-can-drink course, so it’s the kind of place where you’d want to take your time and pair it with food.
MugiI want to drink there already! While tasting side by side in Nippori, I’d seriously want to think about whether to start with a lager or go straight to HAZY and fly away!
