Hop BroToday’s story is about Mugibaru in Kamata lining up seven draft taps for Japan’s World Cup match.
MugiWhat! Watching the game with craft beer sounds perfect, and calling it victory drinks is already a mood.
Hop BroThe headline pour is Uchu Brewing’s Atom Mango, which honestly sounds like tropical fruit crash-landed in the tap list.
MugiOooh! But is that basically mango juice, or does it still have a real craft beer feel to it?
Hop BroIt’s definitely still beer. It sounds fruity and light, the kind of bright easy drink you’d want before or after the match.
MugiAnd the lineup has American IPA, Hazy IPA, Double IPA, fruit ale... this is a full style traffic jam, isn’t it?!
Hop BroThat’s the beauty of it. Brasserie Knot’s MOON is a Double IPA, and St. Gallen’s Green Bullet HAZY is a Hazy IPA, so the layers of hop character are totally different.
MugiHold on, layers of hop character? Why did this suddenly turn into a science class? Translate for regular humans!
Hop BroBasically, Double IPA means bigger bitterness and aroma, while Hazy IPA is softer, cloudy, and juicy. And there’s also Asahi Jukusen, a clean polished pilsner, so even the safe option is solid.
MugiNow I want Full Throttle from Hoppokotan, Rainy Jacket from Y.Market, and even that warabi mochi custard. A dog-friendly pub with this list is a detour genius. I absolutely want a pint on match day!
