NEIGHBOR to serve Apricot Chilli Chicken Burger from July 13-16, with eight beers on tap
NEIGHBOR, a beer pub in Nogata, Nakano, Tokyo, will offer its limited Weekly Burger, the Apricot Chilli Chicken Burger, from July 13 to 16. The venue is also pouring eight craft beers on tap, making it a clear food-and-beer stop from lunchtime onward.
Hop BroNEIGHBOR in Nogata is dropping the Apricot Chilli Chicken Burger from July 13 to 16. It is exactly the kind of thing that makes you want a craft beer from noon.
MugiWait, and it's only four days!? I heard that and my calendar instantly turned beer-colored!
Hop BroThe build is smart. Crunchy fried chicken, coleslaw, and a house sauce layering apricot and honey with heat and tang.
MugiOkay but buffalo sauce sounds way too intense. Is the spice level supposed to charge at me like a bison!?
Hop BroThe name does hit hard. Basically it's a classic American spicy-tangy sauce, so the burger lands like a sweet-heat-acid combo.
MugiWhat is that, a flavor circus!? And with eight beers on tap, this is a serious burger sidekick draft!
Hop BroExactly. Mizuha from FLORA FERMENTATION is a Sake Yeast Beer, Ruby Tint from B.M.B BREWERY is a Smoothie Sour, HOME BOUND from Gangi Brewing is a Dark Mild, and they even go all the way to Cold IPA.
MugiHold on, Cold IPA doesn't just mean an IPA served extra cold!? That name is way too literal!
Hop BroThat is the fun part. It's brewed to drink crisp and dry, so with a sweet-spicy burger you get clean-cut bitterness that snaps the finish into place.
MugiThen what about Sake Yeast Beer!? It's beer, but it sounds like it has paperwork in two different family registries!
Hop BroIt means beer fermented with sake yeast. That can give it a distinctive aroma and fermentation profile, and with this burger I'd personally go Mizuha or FLINT.
MugiI'm eyeing SUZUKA-涼風- with sansho or the dessert-like Ruby Tint! At this point we are clearly doing a noon first toast.
