DIG THE LINE BOTTLE & BAR taps four beers including Primary Barrels' Hazy IPA
The beer pub DIG THE LINE BOTTLE & BAR at Shin-Puh-Kan in Kyoto shared its current tap lineup on Instagram. From Primary Barrels' Hazy IPA to a hard cider, a West Coast IPA, and an NZ Pilsner, four beers with distinct character are on offer.
Hop BroDIG THE LINE BOTTLE & BAR in Karasuma Oike, Kyoto, is making its current taps pretty interesting.
MugiWait, the current taps change that much all at once?
Hop BroExactly. This time, four beers are on tap, led by Primary Barrels' Hazy IPA.
MugiWhat is that! A hazy IPA is the cloudy kind, right?
Hop BroThat's right, and it leans into tropical aromas with gentler bitterness, so it's easy to drink.
MugiOh wow, then I really want to try the La France cider from Iwate too. It sounds super fruity!
Hop BroThe one from Green Neighbors is great as a food-pairing drink, with a proper juicy pear character.
MugiWait, cider is on the menu at a beer place too? Isn't that basically a paradise for tasting different drinks?
Hop BroAbsolutely. Obina Brewing's West Coast IPA has crisp citrus and bitterness, Nobody Brewing's NZ Pilsner is light and refreshing, and the place also has eight taps plus sake and original dishes.
MugiWhoa, it's basically a one-stop Kyoto stop. I want to take some home with TAP TO CAN and keep drinking there too!
Hop BroYeah, that makes sense. I can see why they're called selling too well beers, and now I feel like one pint won't be enough today.
MugiThen let's go հիմա! I want to line them all up and drink from hazy to pilsner!
