The World End in Ueno taps Oni Densetsu x AiD STATION's new keg, Oni no Hinan Goya
The World End -Irish Pub- in Ueno opened at 4:00 p.m. on May 30 and unveiled its tap list, including the collaboration beer Oni Densetsu x AiD STATION's Oni no Hinan Goya IPA. The guest kegs span a wide range of craft beers from Japan and abroad.
Hop BroThe World End -Irish Pub- in front of Ueno Station is opening at 4:00 p.m. on May 30, and they're lining up new kegs. With 11 draft beers on tap, they're really making you decide on your first pint right away.
MugiWhoa! 11 draft beers is too many, isn't it? I'm already letting out a happy scream just looking at the menu, so what am I supposed to drink first?!
Hop BroThe first thing to watch is Oni Densetsu x AiD STATION's Oni no Hinan Goya IPA. It has Oni Densetsu's punch, plus the playful edge that comes with a collaboration. That's the exciting part.
MugiWhat is that! I've heard of IPA, but the name Oni no Hinan Goya is already intense! Why is IPA so popular in the first place?
Hop BroIPA is a beer style that really leans into hops, so it's strongly aromatic. It tends to bring out bitterness and citrusy aromas, and in a collaboration like this, it's fun when the character comes through so clearly.
MugiOhh! Then Totopia x Vertere's DDH Hazy DIPA sounds interesting too, kind of soft and sweet! Just the name alone is exploding with information!
Hop BroThat's the top contender among hazy beers. DDH means using a lot of dry hopping, Hazy means cloudy and juicy, and DIPA means a stronger IPA. In other words, it's packed with aroma and has real depth.
MugiI get it! And if you pair it with fish and chips, it's basically a full-on pub experience! Drinking it in that wood-paneled interior sounds like it would be amazing!
Hop BroExactly, and The World End also has the appeal of being no cover charge. The guest taps span Japan, Belgium, and the U.S., and it's nice to see everything from Kinki Pale Ale to a one-year-aged lambic.
MugiWait, they even have one-year-aged lambic!? You can take a single trip through everything from crisp to heavy, my stomach is becoming a mini getaway!
Hop BroThat's why today is a day when it's okay to be indecisive. The first-pour options are too strong, so starting light, then going for the Oni beers, and finishing with a dark beer is probably the best move.
MugiAll right, I'm starting with Oni no Hinan Goya IPA! And then I want to keep comparing drinks while saying 'just one more' with someone!
Hop BroThat's settled then. 'Just one more' in Ueno is the dangerous phrase here. Today I also want to relax at The World End, comparing beers slowly with Oni Densetsu's new keg in hand.
