Progress on April 23

At Craft Beer Bar & Bottle Shop Progress in Nakahara Ward, Kawasaki City, an announcement was posted for business hours on Thursday, April 23, 4:00 p.m. - 11:00 p.m. The shop is a beer pub and bottle shop in the Musashi-Kosugi Station area, opening at 4:00 p.m. on weekdays and 1:00 p.m. on weekends and holidays. It accepts cashless payments only, and the outdoor seating area welcomes pets and is equipped with leash hooks.

The first thing that stands out in this day's post is Minoh Beer x Aki Shika Shuzo "Saruyama Shikao Japanese Rice Brut". It is introduced as the eighth collaboration with Aki Shika Shuzo, which handles everything from rice cultivation to sake brewing in Nose Town, next to Minoh. The description explains its dry finish using koji rice, the complexity derived from saison yeast, and a lingering aftertaste reminiscent of ginjo aroma. It is a bottle where the nuance of sake and the crispness of craft beer overlap, making it a beer you will want to take your time with.

The post also mentions the Chakanat Kölsch, which is also on tap at Bucket. It is being highlighted in connection with World Beer Cup award-winning beers, suggesting a flow where you can enjoy comparison tastings based on award-winning labels.

At Progress, draft beer for takeout is 20% off every Wednesday and Thursday. In addition to bringing your own growler, cups and plastic bottles are also available, and the ability to buy beer by the volume for takeaway is another strength that fits this shop. It looks like a day worth remembering for craft beer fans, from having one drink in the shop to taking home another for later.
