Hop BroBeer Cafe Gambrinus in Kokubunji just refreshed its July 29 list, and the 13-tap lineup looks seriously strong.
MugiWhat, 13!? And the headliner is Yokohama Bay Brewing's Sprint IPA on tap? That name already sounds fast!
Hop BroExactly. Yokohama Bay Brewing knows how to do an IPA with crisp bite and bright hop character, which is perfect for summer.
MugiHold on, what does on tap even mean? Do I need tap shoes for this?
Hop BroNo dancing required. It just means served from the keg, and the list of what's pouring right now is the tap list.
MugiWhoa, and they've got Isekadoya's brown ale, Shiga Kogen's Shinshu Heion, and U.B.P's Get Goal! That's a wild style spread!
Hop BroPlus Touchdown's Shirakaba Beat and lager choices like Pilsner Urquell, so lager fans are covered too.
MugiBut Hama Kuro is a black IPA and Ogna has Alps Weizen? These sound like wizard spells!
Hop BroBlack IPA gives you dark looks with hoppy aroma, and weizen brings soft wheat character. Basically it's a festival of flavor.
MugiOkay, now add the 11 summer dishes and the blueberry-only Camembert fry special, and this is just unfair!
Hop BroThe current taps already make me want to go, and with Swan Lake, Nomcraft, and Kunitachi Brewery coming soon, I want a pint now.
MugiSame, my stomach and throat are fully headed for Gambrinus. I need a tasting flight right now!
