Sangenjaya Sanity Opens on 5/4 with Nagi no Oto Brewing's 'SETOKA2026' and PASSIFIC BREWING's 'OHAYO!'
The craft beer specialty shop Sanity in Sangenjaya will be open from 14:00 to 22:00 on May 4. Arrivals include Miyazaki's Nagi no Oto Brewing "SETOKA2026," Kanagawa's PASSIFIC BREWING "OHAYO!," and two bottled beers from Hiroshima's BREAK EDGE BEER WORKS.
Hop BroToday, Sanity in Sangenjaya is open from 14:00 to 22:00. Since it's a holiday, you can start drinking in the afternoon, and the guest lineup is seriously strong.
MugiWhat, from the afternoon!? And if the guest beers are this strong, that's already enough to make me want to go!
Hop BroThe main attraction is SETOKA2026 from Nagi no Oto Brewing in Miyazaki. They hand-peel fully ripe setoka oranges and turn the flesh into juice before adding it to the brew.
MugiWait, what! I get using the peel, but adding juice made from the flesh? So is it basically 100% fruit juice beer?
Hop BroClose, but they also steep the peel and the leftover pulp, so what makes it interesting is that it isn't just sweet. The fact that it has an orange-wine-like nuance really comes from that process.
MugiOhhh! So it means it's juicy and rich, but not cloyingly sweet. Sounds easy to drink, which makes it dangerous!
Hop BroNext is OHAYO! from PASSIFIC BREWING in Kanagawa. It's the sixth collaboration batch with EENY, and it's a poppy hoppy saison that makes you want to drink it from the morning.
MugiWhat kind of beast is a hoppy saison!? Even if you say it makes you want to drink it from the morning, my reason is going to lose before work starts!
Hop BroSaison is originally known for its dry, crisp drinking character, and when you layer hop aroma on top of that, it opens up with lemon and herbal notes. That’s why it has lightness with real satisfaction.
MugiI see! And if Hiroshima's BREAK EDGE BEER WORKS is here too, that means you can do a bottle tasting of two beers, right?
Hop BroExactly. There's a clean IPL finished with lager yeast, and an American-hop piney Hazy IPA. Today, it's the kind of day that makes you want more than just one beer in Sangenjaya from the afternoon - maybe two or three.
Lineup for May 4
The craft beer specialty shop "Sanity" in Sangenjaya will be open from 14:00 to 22:00 on May 4. With a holiday schedule and a 2 p.m. opening, it will be a day suited to anyone who wants to enjoy beer from the afternoon.
The first highlight of the day is SETOKA2026 from Miyazaki's Nagi no Oto Brewing. The beer is brewed by hand-peeling fully ripe setoka oranges one by one, turning the flesh into juice and adding it to the brew. The peel and pulp left from squeezing are also used in the steeping process. It is described as going beyond the framework of beer, with a nuance somewhat like orange wine, and as juicy and rich while keeping sweetness restrained.
Next is OHAYO! from Kanagawa's PASSIFIC BREWING. This is the sixth batch of a collaboration beer with EENY, presented as a pop, bright, hoppy saison that makes you want to drink it from the morning. It carries impressions of lemon and herbs, and offers a light drinking experience with satisfying depth. It is the kind of beer that will interest anyone looking for a balance of liveliness and aroma.
Also arriving from BREAK EDGE BEER WORKS in Hiroshima are two bottled beers. One is a clean, gulpable IPL fermented slowly with lager yeast, and the other is a Hazy IPA made only with American hops, bringing forward a fruity, pine-like character. Being able to enjoy both draft and bottle is very much in keeping with Sanity's identity as a beer pub.
The shop is located on the first floor of Sakae-dori Building, 1-chome Sangenjaya, Setagaya-ku, Tokyo. In addition to the rotating guest beers, notices related to anniversary events are also on display, giving local beer fans multiple reasons to stop by. With a lineup of clearly defined flavor profiles, it is a day that makes it easy to choose according to your mood, from citrusy fruitiness to a light saison to bottled IPA.
