Toyohashi’s TOYS BREWERY posts a nine-beer tap list, led by Argy Bargy and 66 Red Ale
TOYS BREWERY, a brewpub in Toyohashi’s Ekimae Odori area, has shared its current lineup of beers in tank and on tap. The list ranges from its core oatmeal stout and pale ale to in-process beers such as Argy Bargy, 66 Red Ale, and El Jalapeno.
Hop BroTOYS BREWERY in Toyohashi just dropped a nine-beer lineup, and that is very hard to ignore. They have six beers pouring now, plus three more waiting in the fermentation tanks.
MugiWhat, six on tap is already wild, and they still have three more in the wings? That is not a beer list, that is a fantasy draft!
Hop BroAnd the current lineup is solid. The Oatmeal Stout uses three roasted malts for a classic dark profile, while the Session American Wheat brings smooth wheat texture and bright citrusy hops.
MugiHold on, what exactly are roasted malts? It sounds like somebody put the beer ingredients in a frying pan!
Hop BroPretty much, yeah. Roasting the malt builds that toasty dark-beer flavor, with notes like coffee and a gentle bitter edge. Easiest way to think about it is: darker roast, deeper flavor.
MugiOhh, nice! Then I am locked onto the White Strawberry Sour and Gachagacha Pineapple. Those names sound like a carnival before I even take a sip!
Hop BroFair choice, but the American Pale Ale is a key one too. It is built around Citra hop aroma and bitterness, balanced with malt sweetness, so it works as a friendly gateway into IPA territory.
MugiBut then I hit Hazy IPA in the tank list and suddenly it sounds like a magic spell. And ARGY BARGY sounds like a pub brawl, so what does it actually taste like?
Hop BroARGY BARGY is a fruity hazy IPA loaded with hops, but soft enough that it does not wear you out fast. Then 66 RED ALE uses the rare RED X malt for richness with a clean finish, and El Jalapeno brings Toyohashi-grown jalapenos into the mix.
MugiSee, this is dangerous. Once you announce the three beers to come, I immediately want to go now, study the current six, and come back for ARGY BARGY and 66 RED ALE on the next rotation.
Hop BroThey also said keg cleaning and new brewing start the next day as stock drops, so this feels like the perfect timing window. Makes me want to hit TOYS BREWERY and drink both the regulars and the local specials before the lineup shifts.
