Faction Mini TTO with Four Limited Kegs to Open on March 20 at Two Fingers in Ikebukuro
The beer pub Two Fingers in Nishi-Ikebukuro, Tokyo, has announced a mini tap takeover featuring Faction. On March 20, four beers including a limited IPA will be on tap. A burger pop-up is also planned for the 20th, along with a ramen pop-up on the 21st, making this a weekend stop worth checking out.
Hop BroAt Two Fingers in Ikebukuro, they’re holding a Faction mini TTO on March 20. Four limited kegs are going on tap all at once - a seriously hot lineup!
MugiWhoa! That’s happening in Ikebukuro? Four limited beers at once? That’s basically a winning event already!
Hop BroThe lineup is WINTER IPA, ALL IN IPA Columbus, Commando 450, and Hamaru IPA - a solid rare-keg setup that should hit the spot for IPA fans.
MugiWhat is that! What exactly is a single-hop ALL IN IPA? And if it’s keg-only, can you not get it in cans?
Hop BroA single-hop beer is designed to showcase the aroma and flavor of just one hop variety, and keg-only means it’s served only from the bar’s draft system. In other words, the tasting comparison is extra precise.
MugiOhhh! And I heard it’s burgers on the 20th and ramen on the 21st, so my food schedule is perfect too!
Hop BroOn March 20 there’s a burger pop-up by La Vigne Akiko, and on the 21st there’s Hazy ramen by Kiriwo Meshi - it’s basically a two-day food lineup that changes daily.
MugiHazy ramen sounds intense just from the name... But if the food is limited too, I guess we need to rush in before it sells out!
Hop BroThe venue is Two Fingers in the RM Building at 3-23-3 Nishi-Ikebukuro, and if you want to make it the anchor of a weekend crawl, it’s a pretty practical craft-beer-first spot.
MugiDeal! I want to toast with Faction IPA on March 20, and keep going on the 21st too! I already want to go drink right now~!
