Novel Craft opens at 18:00 with an eight-beer tap list in Tokyo
Novel Craft, a beer pub in Minamikarasuyama, Setagaya, Tokyo, announced an 18:00 opening on the day of the post. It also shared an eight-beer tap list, including four house beers from Novel Craft Brewing.
Hop BroTonight's topic is Novel Craft in Minami-Karasuyama. They announced a 6:00 p.m. open, and the post is basically bait for an after-work pint.
MugiWait, a 6:00 p.m. opening is actually perfect! Even if work melts your brain, you can just drift straight into beer.
Hop BroAnd it isn't just a schedule note. They also posted an 8-tap lineup, built around four house beers from Novel Craft Brewing: Delay, Red Purple, Reloop, and Echo.
MugiOoh, four house brews already sounds serious! And those names, Delay and Reloop, feel like episode titles for a very hoppy drama.
Hop BroThen they stack on the collab Reflection, plus Celladoor's Trueborn and CRAFTROCK's Joy Hopposites, so you get local brewery energy and guest taps at the same counter.
MugiBut hold on, Peanut Butter Milk Stout from Left Hand sounds outrageous! Is this a beer, or did dessert sneak onto the tap list?
Hop BroFair question. Milk stout doesn't mean you're chugging actual milk; it's a stout style with smooth sweetness and extra body, which makes that peanut-butter-like aroma land really well.
MugiWhat, so it's sweet dark beer territory? That suddenly sounds way less scary and way more like a reward for surviving the day!
Hop BroAnd the post also hints they're still brewing onsite, which is part of the charm. You can feel that fresh, in-progress brewery atmosphere behind the bar.
MugiThat easygoing just one pint vibe in Minami-Karasuyama is dangerous in the best way. I would walk in for one and immediately start overthinking the whole order.
Hop BroI'd probably open with Echo or Delay, stretch into Reflection, then let Peanut Butter Milk Stout handle the landing at the end.
MugiI'd detour into Reflection first, then say add Joy Hopposites too. At 6:00 p.m., both of us are absolutely ready to go drink.
