NEIGHBOR in Nogata posts an 8-beer tap list ahead of SPICE & SAISON on June 20-21
NEIGHBOR, a beer pub in Nogata, Nakano, has published its latest tap list. The lineup spans eight beers, from a juicy weizen and a pink-lemonade sour to pilsner, saison, IPA, and stout, with a SPICE & SAISON food event planned for June 20-21.
Hop BroNEIGHBOR in Nogata just dropped an eight-tap lineup. And on June 20 and 21, they're running SPICE&SAISON, basically setting beer and spicy food up for a showdown.
MugiWait, that range is wild. Juicy beer, pilsner, IPA, stout... that's not a tap list, that's a theme park!
Hop BroRight at the front is NOMCRAFT BREWING's Tiki Tiki Boom, a 6% Juicy Weizen. Soft wheat character with tropical fruit vibes, a properly cheerful pint.
MugiHold on, Juicy Weizen is what exactly? Just hearing 'weizen' makes me feel like I'm about to fail a science quiz.
Hop BroWeizen is basically a wheat beer. It usually comes off soft and a little banana-like, and when you add juicy character, it starts drinking like tropical fruit in beer form.
MugiOhhh! Then what about GROUNDTAP BREWERY's SUGOSUGI? 'Table Saison with Cedar' sounds like the table itself might be made of cedar.
Hop BroThat's the fun part. A Table Saison is a lower-ABV saison made for easy drinking with food, and this one adds cedar aroma. At 3.5%, it sounds built for spice dishes and biryani.
MugiWhat is that! And Gangi Brewing has a Golden Stout? A stout that's golden feels like promising black tie and showing up in weekend clothes.
Hop BroExactly, but MORE GRIND still aims for coffee-like roast and toasty notes. Then you've got Mojiko Beer's pilsner, Y.MARKET's HYSTERIC IPA, Uchoten's Jazz, and Beppu's Yukemuri Haze backing it up.
MugiAnd June 20 and 21 are SPICE&SAISON, right? Veggies, meat, fish, and even a first-shot biryani? I already don't trust myself to stop at one.
Hop BroIt gets even better, because there's also a house-made plum syrup sour waiting in the wings. NEIGHBOR looks like a quick one-drink stop, then quietly turns into a full dinner mission.
MugiSold. I want to start with a pilsner and finish on Jazz dry stout. Just reading this made me seriously thirsty!
