NEIGHBOR craftbeer&grill in Nogata, Nakano, shared its latest tap list on Instagram. The lineup spans eight beers, including a NEIGHBOR x VERTERE collaboration, plus releases from Kyoto Brewing, Minoh Beer, Nara Brewing, and more.
Hop BroLet’s start with Nogata today. NEIGHBOR craftbeer&grill just posted an eight-tap lineup that’s worth talking about.
MugiWhat! It has IPA, Lager, and Stout too? That is way too versatile for one tap list!
Hop BroThe headline pour is the NEIGHBOR x VERTERE Pyracantha collab, a 5.5% NZ Pale Ale built around expressive hops.
MugiHold on, what is NZ Pale Ale supposed to mean? Why does this beer suddenly sound internationally employed?
Hop BroNZ usually points to New Zealand hops, so think tropical hop aroma with an easy pale ale drinkability.
MugiOhhh, so Kyoto Brewing’s Tokimeki Netsushisen being a Tropical IPA means the fruit character hits even harder?
Hop BroExactly. Minoh Beer’s PLUM GOSE brings tart plum notes, and & Beer’s Black Swallow is an oatmeal stout with soft, rounded body.
MugiWait a second, Nara Brewing’s ENNUI has azuki and condensed milk? That sounds like a dessert summit disguised as beer!
Hop BroThat’s the fun of it. It layers sweetness onto a brown ale’s roast, and NUDE BEER’s Amatsukaze is a Kitayama cedar lager with a woody twist.
MugiAnd the food! Oyster fry with pear-mint sauce, beef tendon stew, vindaloo curry... that is a serious food lineup.
Hop BroPlus FLORA FERMENTATION’s White IPA and the NEIGHBOR x Bighand Bros.Beer Mexican Light Lager keep the whole list balanced, so stopping at one feels impossible.
MugiThat settles it. I want to drink through the list in Nogata, and we’re starting with Pyracantha.
