Kawasaki Azalea KCBS Reveals 18 Taps for March 21; New Arrival Is Mrs. Scarlet
KAWASAKI Craft Beer Stand by Tokaido Beer has released its tap list for March 21. As of 7:30 p.m., 18 beers are on tap, with a strong selection of Tokaido BEER regulars and seasonals, plus plenty of guest beers from breweries inside and outside the prefecture. The new keg opening is GRANDLINE's "Mrs. Scarlet."
Hop BroToday, KAWASAKI Craft Beer Stand by Tokaido Beer in Kawasaki Azalea is really heating things up with its 18-tap reveal. From Tokaido BEER regulars to guest beers, the lineup is wonderfully lively.
MugiWhat?! Eighteen kinds on tap!? The tap wall is basically turning into a festival venue. I don't even know where to start drinking!
Hop BroThe first thing to check is the new opening on tap #10, GRANDLINE's Mrs. Scarlet. It's a Fruited Sour Ale, and the key points are mango and passion fruit aromas, sharp acidity, and a dry finish.
MugiW-what is a fruited sour ale?! Does that mean it's sour but easy to drink? It sounds so fancy just from the name!
Hop BroSimply put, it's the kind of beer that layers in fruit character and then tightens it up with acidity. That's why Mrs. Scarlet is bright and crisp, making it easy to enjoy as a first beer or with a meal.
MugiOhhh! So it sounds good both as a starter and while eating. And just hearing mango and passion fruit makes me feel like I'm on a tropical getaway!
Hop BroAnd the lineup for the day is fun because of the broad range of Tokaido BEER styles. They've got IPA, Porter, Belgian Wheat, and Saison, and you can't miss 1623, Black Relaxation, Pale Pink Excuse, Meeting of Wheat, Kawasaki Big Beer Totoroe-ru, and Gordon Setter either.
MugiI'm getting tipsy just from the names! Black Relaxation sounds like it would make your shoulders drop after just one more glass!
Hop BroOn top of that, the collaboration release Mugibaru 2nd Anniversary Kinako-iro no Fuwafuwa Hazy, along with Remociso and FRO AGARI YELL, means the guest selection is solid too. Having Fill Brewing, Baeren, Kagiya Brewery, Yamamorido, Yokohama Beer, PECORA BEER, Tsukuda Brewery, and Hakone Beer all in one place is pretty strong.
MugiWhat is that! That's totally the kind of place that makes you want to bar-hop. If I lived in Kawasaki, I think I'd stop by every day on the way home!
Hop BroAnd with four chairs added, plus takeout and food allowed from outside, it's also great that it's easy to just stop in for one casual beer. Whether you're in the middle of shopping or heading out for a pre-drink, being able to swing by on a whim is one of the strengths of the underground Kawasaki spot.
MugiNice - places where you can feel satisfied even in a short amount of time are the best. So today, let's start with Mrs. Scarlet, and before we know it, maybe go for one more!
Hop BroExactly. Start bright and lively with Mrs. Scarlet, then move on to Tokaido BEER and the guests - that's the best flow. A drink in the basement of Kawasaki Station is reason enough to head out for a beer.
In its March 21 post, KAWASAKI Craft Beer Stand by Tokaido Beer inside Kawasaki Azalea announced an 18-tap lineup as of 7:30 p.m. that day. With a high proportion of Tokaido BEER selections, the lineup covers a wide range of styles, from IPA and Porter to Belgian Wheat and Saison.
The highlight of the day is #10, "Mrs. Scarlet" (GRANDLINE), introduced in the post as a new keg opening. The style is Fruited Sour Ale, and it is described as featuring aromas from mango and passion fruit, sharp acidity, and a dry finish. It is a glass that balances brightness with a crisp edge, making it easy to pair with both the first drink of the evening and with food.
In addition to Tokaido BEER's "1623," "Black Relaxation," "Pale Pink Excuse," "Meeting of Wheat," "Kawasaki Big Beer Totoroe-ru," and "Gordon Setter," the taps also include the collaboration release "Mugibaru 2nd Anniversary Kinako-iro no Fuwafuwa Hazy," plus "Remociso (red shiso beer)" and "FRO AGARI YELL." The guest lineup is also varied, featuring Fill Brewing, Baeren Brewery, Kagiya Brewery, Yamamorido, Yokohama Beer, PECORA BEER, Tsukuda Brewery, and Hakone Beer.
As for the shop's usability, the post mentions the addition of four chairs and continues to encourage casual drop-ins. It also supports takeout and clearly states that food brought from outside is allowed as long as customers take their trash home. From a quick drink while shopping to a pre-drink before going out, this was an update worth watching for anyone looking to enjoy craft beer in a short amount of time in the underground area of Kawasaki Station.
