Okei Brewery Nippori posts July 13 tap list with 12 beers
Okei Brewery Nippori, a brewpub in Higashi-Nippori, Arakawa, shared its tap list for Monday, July 13. The lineup includes nine house beers plus three guest pours from Ushi Tora Brewery, North Island Beer, and HOP JAPAN.
Hop BroOkei Brewery Nippori in Nippori just dropped its July 13 list, and a 12-tap lineup with nine house beers plus three guests is seriously stacked.
MugiWhat! Nine house brews is a lot, right? That's not a tap list, that's a beer amusement park. Where do I even start?
Hop BroThe headliners are Arakawa HAZY Under Bridge and Cho Arakawa HAZY Under the Bridge, plus HELLES, OKEI IPA, and Nippori Kolsch, so the whole board has strong local flavor written all over it.
MugiWhoa! But what is HAZY ? It sounds intense, but all I can picture is fog collecting under a bridge!
Hop BroHAZY usually means a cloudy IPA-style beer where hop aroma comes forward and the bitterness feels softer, so think of it as aroma-first juicy beer and it clicks fast.
MugiOkay, that helps! Then are HELLES and Kolsch the calmer ones? Those names sound like magic spells, and I feel like I'd trip over them ordering.
Hop BroHELLES leans crisp and lager-like, while Kolsch is light and easy like an ale, so they fit the easy-drinking slot for your first pour. Then Steam Ale adds a little twist.
MugiWow, there's even a drinking order! But Passion Yawara, Sour Ale, and Abukuma RED have a wild flavor spread , don't they? My mouth is going to need a schedule.
Hop BroThat's the magic of a brewpub: you can compare Ushi Tora Brewery's fruity pick, North Island Beer's tart one, and HOP JAPAN's red-toned beer at the same table. It's basically comparison-flight heaven .
MugiThat is strong. Good food, Nippori, and all that in one place? If they even have an all-you-can-drink course, this is one-stop beer travel and I'm already mentally there.
Hop BroThen we open with HELLES or Nippori Kolsch, warm up properly, and move into Arakawa HAZY Under Bridge and Megante later. That's the perfect route right there.
MugiLocked in! Start light, finish with a huge aroma blast, and now I want to chase every tap at Okei Brewery Nippori. My throat has already arrived in Nippori!
