Hop BroNEIGHBOR, a beer pub in Nogata, Tokyo, now has eight taps to explore. And there’s a limited hard cider alongside the beer.
MugiWhat? There’s a limited hard cider too? That sounds perfect for a craft-beer beginner like me!
Hop BroThe standout is Green Neighbors Hard Cider’s CLEAR YELLOW at 7%. It’s a limited release blended from five kinds of yellow apples.
MugiFive kinds? What does an apple blend even taste like—will it be like sweet juice?
Hop BroThat’s the fun part: bright apple aromas and a soft, smooth tartness. It’s described as clean and refreshing, not just sugary. CLEAR RED is available too.
MugiI want to compare the yellow and red ones! But the beers sound diverse too. I might start with STROLL, a Golden Ale.
Hop BroGangi Brewing’s STROLL is a crisp 4.5% pour. There’s also Swan Lake Beer’s Amber Swan Ale and Bighand Bros.Beer’s 3.3% Dark Mild beer.
MugiA dark beer at only 3.3%? I thought dark beers had to be intense, but a low-ABV dark beer sounds approachable!
Hop BroExactly! FLORA FERMENTATION’s FLORALIA is a Fresh Hop IPA, while Isekado Beer’s Jungle Fantasy is a Hazy IPA. IPA means a hop-forward beer style, often with citrusy or tropical aromas.
MugiOhhh, so it’s about enjoying the aroma! Pairing them with bonito carpaccio or apple gorgonzola penne sounds like choosing beer for food.
Hop BroThat’s the idea. Near Nogata Station, NEIGHBOR is ideal for moving from light ales to IPAs and cider. Just check availability before visiting, since taps can change.
MugiDone! We’ll toast with CLEAR YELLOW, then dive into those hop aromas. Ahh, I want a Nogata beer night!
