The beer pub CRAFT BEER BAR in Yokohama's Kannai district has released its tap list for April 11. Eight beers from Shiga Kogen Beer will be on tap, including DPA, Miyama Blonde, and Sono Ju Anniversary IPA, and on holidays the bar opens at 2 p.m. for a relaxed pace.
Hop BroThe tap list at Yokohama-Kannai's CRAFT BEER BAR for April 11 is seriously hot. Today it's a big eight-beer Shiga Kogen lineup, so you can take your time and work through it from midday.
MugiWhat! Eight Shiga Kogen beers? So many on tap?! I'm happily lost already, wondering where to start!
Hop BroI'd start with the DPA. It's pale and easy to drink, but you still get a clear hop aroma, so it settles the mood with the first glass.
MugiDPA? What is that! Just from the name, it sounds like some kind of space-age secret weapon!
Hop BroBasically, it's an easy-to-drink, everyday kind of ale. No need to overthink it - just enjoy the balance of lightness and aroma, that's the point of the glass.
MugiOhh! Then I might want to try the Miyama Blonde next. Just the name sounds gentle, and it feels perfect for a holiday afternoon!
Hop BroThat's a good choice. If you slip in the Sono Ju Anniversary IPA there, the hop character suddenly comes forward a lot, and it's interesting how the same shop can show such a different face.
MugiReally! IPAs sound strong, but is the hop presence really that different?
Hop BroIt is. IPA is a style meant for enjoying aroma and bitterness, so with the Snow Monkey IPA or the House IPA, it's fun to compare the way the aroma jumps out and the shape of the bitterness.
MugiI see! And if they even have HELLES and a porter, then you can choose based on your mood. Having both light and rich options at one place is amazing!
Hop BroExactly. If you want to feel the depth of the malt, go for the porter; if you want something lighter, go with the pale ale. And on holidays they open from 2:00 p.m. to around 8:00 p.m., so the laid-back pace is part of the charm too.
MugiAnd if they're closed until April 13, that just makes me want to go even more right now! If I drank Shiga Kogen Beer at my leisure in Kannai, I don't think I'd want to go home!
Hop BroExactly, the reward here is being able to drink carefully from midday. Makes you want to start with DPA and finish with the porter on the next day off, doesn't it?
MugiYeah, yeah, I can't stop wanting to drink right now! At this point, the only answer is to hop from beer to beer with Shiga Kogen at CRAFT BEER BAR in Kannai!
