Three WCB Collaboration Beers Tap at Tasogare Lily, with a Booth on May 30-31
On May 23, "Curry and Beer Tasogare Lily" in Minami Ward, Nagoya, updated its tap list. It introduced three craft beers, including "Double Kimchi," a collaboration between West Coast Brewing and White Crow Brewing, and also announced a booth at SOCIAL TOWER MARKET on May 30 and 31.
Hop BroTasogare Lily in Nagoya’s Minami Ward has been updated. The May 23 tap list brought in both curry and beer at once, so there’s a lot to talk about today.
MugiWait, you can enjoy curry and beer at the same time!? And just from the name, it already sounds delicious, like my brain started drinking before I did!
Hop BroToday’s curry lineup is Mango Pork, Dal, and Rebel Butter Chicken. The taps are centered on West Coast Brewing, and you can see that the setup is designed to match the food.
MugiI keep hearing about West Coast Brewing, but what is WCB? That abbreviation sounds strong, like the beer world’s version of a fighting league.
Hop BroWCB is a brewery in Shizuoka, and the highlight this time is Double Kimchi, a collaboration with White Crow Brewing. It’s a West Coast Double IPA at ABV 8.5%, using Citra CRYO, El Dorado, and Motueka, so expect waves of citrus and tropical fruit.
MugiABV 8.5%!? That’s pretty hefty, isn’t it? And with a name like Kimchi, I can’t tell if it’s going to be spicy or sour, but my mouth already feels like an incident waiting to happen!
Hop BroThe name is bold, but the flavor is all about hop-driven brightness. If you slip in a Funky Kettle Sour like The Technician, you can reset your palate with acidity, which is a smart lineup.
MugiOhhh! But what even is a Kettle Sour? Do they make it sour in a pot? That sounds kind of like a science experiment, which is pretty fun!
Hop BroRoughly speaking, it’s a method that creates acidity during the brewing process. That keeps it from getting too heavy and makes it an easy beer to switch to. The other one, No Ketchup, is a hazy DIPA with Hop Butcher For The World, and its strengths are cloudiness and juiciness.
MugiGot it, so it’s hazy DIPA for juicy, sour for refreshing, and Double IPA for something more substantial! If you pair that with curry, it sounds like an endless drinking loop!
Hop BroAnd on May 30 and 31, the shop will be closed because of the SOCIAL TOWER MARKET booth. If you’re going, now’s the time: Mango Pork, Double Kimchi, and finish with No Ketchup.
MugiHearing that makes me want to drink right now! Tasogare Lily has both curry and beer covered, so today sounds like it’ll make both my stomach and my mood happy at once!
