Niigata's 04&Beer: Four Rotating Beers After Swan Lake OVERTURE Kicked
The beer pub “04&Beer” in Nishiborimaedori, Chuo Ward, Niigata City updated its tap list on May 18. Swan Lake’s OVERTURE was kicked, and the pub introduced four beers from Plank, Shiga Kogen, Ushitora, and Minoh.
Hop BroIn Niigata’s Furumachi, 04&Beer just updated its taps. In the May 18 announcement, Swan Lake’s OVERTURE was kicked, and four new beers came in.
MugiWhoa, kicked that fast? Was it really that popular?
Hop BroYeah, the shop even said if you haven’t had it yet, run. It sounds like you can also drink it at @ovenbarstove near the station, but if you’re following Furumachi, 04&Beer is the place to watch.
MugiWhat? What’s a Weizen? My brain is turning into beer the second you say German words!
Hop BroFirst up is Plank Brewery’s Hefe weizen. It’s a wheat beer that gives off a gentle yeast aroma, and it often has banana-like notes and a soft sweetness.
MugiOhhh! So Shiga Kogen’s blonde ale is more of a crisp, refreshing style?
Hop BroExactly. Shiga Kogen Beer’s from scratch is a light, easy-drinking blonde ale. Putting it first helps the next flavors stand out nicely.
MugiThat name, Chotto, Latte yo!, sounds like a joke, but also serious! Ushitora Brewery always pushes it, right?
Hop BroThat’s Ushitora’s strength. They even have Osaru IPA (Real Ale) in the lineup, so finishing with something aroma-forward is a good option. It’s playful, but it still has real body.
MugiAnd they open at 5 p.m. today, and tomorrow they’re closed, right? Then tonight I want to compare about four beers in Furumachi and go look for the afterglow of OVERTURE!
Hop BroNice. If you compare the four rotating beers, your mood for the day will probably be laid bare. I’d start with the Hefe weizen and finish with the Osaru IPA.
MugiI’d start by warming up with the blonde ale, laugh at Chotto, Latte yo!, and then pass out with the Osaru IPA!
