Kokubunji's Beer Cafe Gambrinus keeps Okinawa Fair on with Orion draft
Beer Cafe Gambrinus in Kokubunji said on August 13 that its annual Okinawa Fair is still running, with Orion Beer The Draft on tap and a 13-beer lineup anchored by Japanese craft brewers.
Hop BroI need to tell you about BEER CAFE GAMBRINUS in Kokubunji: they're keeping the Okinawa fair going, pouring Orion The Draft on tap, and running 13 taps overall.
MugiWhat! Orion on draft already screams summer, and now they're bringing full Okinawa vibes to Tokyo too?
Hop BroIt's right by Kokubunji Station South Exit, and even though it's a 14-tap pub, they're currently rotating 13, which is basically choice overload.
MugiNo way! With Okinawan food too, Okinawa soba, rafute, and goya champuru are about to act like the main event next to the beer.
Hop BroThe range is wild: Shonan Beer's Summer Orange Ale, Shiga Kogen Beer's Porter and Muga Muchu, plus DD4D's Time After Time, so the style variety is seriously strong.
MugiHold on, Muga Muchu is a beer name? That sounds more like a monk unlocking some secret mountain technique!
Hop BroThe name is dramatic, but it's real beer, and a hazy IPA usually means big hop aroma with a softer, juicy feel instead of sharp bitterness.
MugiNo way! Hazy IPA sounded like laundry weather to me, but it's actually an aroma feast?
Hop BroExactly, and when Isekadoya uses Dunk Dunk Dunk!!, they're talking about a resiny citrus note, not some suspicious comic-book sound effect.
MugiThat is reassuring and not reassuring! But from Orion The Draft to Iwate Kura Beer's Weizen and T.Y. Harbor's Amber Ale, this is flight heaven.
Hop BroIt also helps that there's no cover charge, the place is fully non-smoking, has Wi-Fi, and pairs everything with careful washoku cooking.
MugiThat's unfair! I want a pint right now, and just imagining alternating Okinawa soba and beer is enough to erase my whole schedule.
Hop BroThen it's settled: we start with a toast of Orion, and if the mood keeps climbing, we can hold a very serious 13-tap strategy meeting.
