The beer pub Beer Cafe Gambrinus, a 1-minute walk from the South Exit of Kokubunji Station, released its tap list for May 23. Centered on domestic breweries such as Miyazaki Hideji Beer and Shiga Kogen Beer, the lineup ranged widely all the way to Pilsner Urquell.
Hop BroThe May 23 tap list was released for BEER CAFE GAMBRINUS, just a 1-minute walk from the South Exit of Kokubunji Station. The nice part is that you can snack on homemade dishes made by a Japanese cuisine chef and drink at a leisurely pace from the afternoon.
MugiWhat, you can drink from 3 p.m.!? That's a lifesaver for the 'I can't wait until after work' crowd!
Hop BroAnd the lineup is stacked. From Miyazaki Hideji Beer's 'Kemurihige Stout' to U.B.P Brewery's 'Keyaki Forward [Hazy IPA]' and DD4D's 'Buddha's Hands [Citrus Hazy IPA],' it's all there.
MugiOh, but what exactly is a Hazy IPA? Is it a beer like fog? They're going for looks too, huh!
Hop BroIn short, it's an IPA you enjoy for its haze and juiciness. It puts the hop aroma up front and softens the bitterness, so it's easy to get into even if you're new to it.
MugiThen I'm curious about the Soma Orange lager! 'Botanical lager' sounds like a stylish meadow or something!
Hop BroAnd on top of that you've got Hiroshima Neighborly's 'Hiroshima Lemon Sukatto Session IPA,' Shiga Kogen Beer's DPA, and Iwate Kura Beer's Weizen and Raspberry Pink. The range of flavors is huge.
MugiI've heard of Weizen, but what's a fruit wheat ale! If it has raspberries, it already feels like dessert!
Hop BroThat is exactly what's interesting: Fermentary's Grapy, Ushitora's Ushitoraman Dyna, Black Tide's Second Breath, Michinoku Fukushimaji Beer's Red Ale, and even Pilsner Urquell are all on tap. You can drink today's craft alongside classic standards.
MugiWow, covering the classics too is cool...! I get why beer fans fall down the rabbit hole with places like this. I want more than just one glass now; I want to drink them before I even memorize all the names!
Hop BroThe next candidates also include Number Nine, Yokohama Bay Brewing, and Oguna, so this is definitely the kind of place you'll keep coming back to. For today, let's have a serious meeting about what to drink first.
