The beer pub "BEER NOVA" in Urawa, Saitama, has released its beer lineup for March 25, when it will be open from 4:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. Centered on VERTERE, the lineup also includes domestic and international labels such as Chuckanut Brewery, Hoppukotan Brewing, Yorocco Beer, and Y.MARKET, along with a full range of house beers from U.B.P BREWERY.
Hop BroThe BEER NOVA tap reveal near Urawa Station is pretty aggressive. On March 25, they're open from 4:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., and they're lining up domestic and international beers around VERTERE.
MugiWait, that many beers!? And it's close to the station, so I could swing by after work, which is seriously convenient!
Hop BroThe thing is, the VERTERE side is really strong. Salix, 10th Anniversary Grape Sour, Tilia, Effrencia, Viola Cera, Iris, Casimiloa, and Cofia make it feel like almost a full VERTERE festival.
MugiWhat!? Grape sour sounds kind of like wine. It's weird in a good way that beer can feel fruity, too.
Hop BroExactly. Sour styles bring out acidity, and sometimes you get grape-like nuances on top of that. When acidity and fruitiness come together, it still feels like beer, but it can also take on a dessert-like side.
MugiOhhh! Then a side-by-side tasting would be fun. And if they've got pilsners and saisons too, the range is going to be wild!
Hop BroThat's the interesting part: Chuckanut Brewery's Pilsner, Hoppukotan Brewing's CoCo Wheat, Yorocco Beer's Brown Saison, Y.MARKET x BEER HUNTING URAWA's Captain Mark, and VERTERE x Isekadoya Beer’s Flustum are all on the board. The origins and styles are incredibly diverse.
MugiWhoa, they even have collaboration beers!? Flustum sounds strong just from the name, and the one with BEER HUNTING URAWA sounds especially interesting!
Hop BroAnd BEER NOVA's real strength is its in-house U.B.P BREWERY. Because they have Made in Urawa beers like Lara Kölsch, URAWA CITY ALE, and Hazy Celebration, you can line up local flavor right alongside beers from other breweries.
MugiThat's great. It has this romantic feel, like keeping a local baseline over time! And if there's food plus an all-you-can-drink plan, I can already tell I'd end up staying longer than I planned.
Hop BroExactly. You can drop in casually after work and also settle in for a proper drink, which is great. It's perfect for a drink after work, so this is definitely the kind of place that makes you want to go check it out together.
