Sankt Gallen's "Shonan Gold" Tapped at GRANDPA FISH & CHIPS

Hop BroMugi-chan, the Kameido beer pub GRANDPA FISH & CHIPS tapped Sankt Gallen's "Shonan Gold" as a NEW TAP on April 17.
MugiWhoa! Shonan Gold already sounds summery and delicious!
Hop BroExactly. It's the kind of beer that says, it's that season again. The sort of guest beer regulars wait for and want to drink as soon as the season rolls around.
MugiGuest beer? What's that? A beer that comes by even though it's not part of the staff?
Hop BroGood question. It means they rotate in draft beers that change from time to time. And since this place is centered on five draft taps, the "today's pint" shines alongside the staples.
MugiWow! And a small, counter-centered shop sounds easy to walk into even for a first-timer!
Hop BroThat's the good part. Just like the name says, the signature dish is fish and chips, and Shonan Gold's citrusy character seems like it would go beautifully with the herb batter. My mouth is already imagining a joint UK-and-Shonan festival.
MugiA joint festival? What does that even mean! But just thinking about it makes me hungry! And I'm really curious about the herb-batter pairing!
Hop BroThey also have house-made pickles and mixed nuts, so it's great for sipping slowly with light snacks. On April 17 they open at 5:00 p.m. and close at 11:00 p.m. with no extension, and the weekend schedule has Saturday through Tuesday closed, so timing matters if you want this tap change.
MugiI see, so if I'm going, tonight is the night! I want to aim for a day when I can taste freshly fried food and a new keg together!
Hop BroThen it's settled. I want to stop by too for a post-work drink, and today I'd love to toast Shonan Gold with fish and chips in hand.
MugiYes, yes, I want to drink so badly now! That was the kind of introduction that makes me want to head to Kameido right now!
