Novel Craft, a beer pub in Minamikarasuyama, Setagaya, Tokyo, announced that it still has bottles of Drie Fonteinen’s Cuvee Armand & Gaston available, alongside a tap list that ranges from IPA to grisette and house beers.
Hop BroTonight I want to talk about the Belgian bottle lineup Novel Craft in Minami-Karasuyama, Setagaya is rolling out for its 5 p.m. open.
MugiWait, what! For an opening notice? So this isn't just a plain stock update ?
Hop BroNot even close. The headliners are Drie Fonteinen's Cuvee Armand & Gaston and De Ranke's XX Bitter.
MugiWhat is that! Cuvee Armand & Gaston already sounds intense, but first, what's a gueuze ?
Hop BroGueuze is a Belgian beer made by blending one-, two-, and three-year lambics, so you're basically tasting aged blending wizardry with acidity and wild character.
MugiNo way! Mixing three different ages? That's like tree rings in a glass. And a 375ml bottle is such an easy solo bottle size !
Hop BroCuvee Armand & Gaston opens with layered wild funk and gentle acidity, while XX Bitter brings citrusy, herbal hop aroma and firm bitterness in a Belgian bitter beauty.
MugiSo one is contemplative and the other hits with bitterness! And the taps have Trap Door IPA, Bellwoods Grisette, and Novel Craft Brewing too? That range is wild !
Hop BroExactly. With Garage × LHG's ADRENOCHROME, Yorocco Beer's Sky Walker IPA, Mugizakkoku Kobo's Tranquil Ale, and Novel Craft Brewing's own Over Dub, Looper, and Down Tempo, it's basically a tasting-flight paradise.
MugiI'm sold! Start with Cuvee Armand & Gaston, finish on an IPA, and yeah, both of us want a glass now !
