Hop BroI checked out the 18-tap reveal at Kawasaki Azalea. KAWASAKI Craft Beer Stand by Tokaido Beer has posted the lineup as of April 20, and it's packed with everything from Tokaido BEER's house brews to guest kegs.
MugiWhoa, that many on offer in an underground shopping area!? 18 taps is seriously overwhelming in the best way!
Hop BroAnd the star of the day is tap No. 5, Guava. It's a Fruit Hazy aaipa at 5% ABV, and it's sold as having that juicy, guava-juice-like feel, so it's the kind of beer that really fits a day when you want to drink something light and easy.
MugiFruit Hazy aaipa? What even is that! Is hazy a drink, and now it's got fruitiness on top of that too?
Hop BroBasically, it's an IPA with haze plus fruity aroma and mouthfeel. Here, the guava character comes forward, so it's more about juicy fruitiness than bitterness.
MugiAhh, so even beer beginners could get into that. And being easy to stop by after work is honestly pretty great!
Hop BroWhat's interesting too is the guest keg lineup. You've got Coffee PUNCH from Kita Alps Brewery, TORIAEZU and Dandyism IPA from Yellow Monkey Brewing, and even SuperSonicSpeedSour from Yokohama Beer, so it's the kind of setup that makes tasting multiple beers hard to stop.
MugiWhat is this, a tasting paradise!? And they've even got the collaboration beer Mugi Bar 2nd Anniversary Kinako-Colored Fluffy Hazy, which sounds fun just from the name!
Hop BroExactly. Tokaido BEER's side is lined up with distinctive beers like A Meeting with Barley, Black Relaxation, and UTAMARO ALE, so the tap list has a really clear throughline. Just looking at the taps feels like a little beer tour.
MugiIt's decided then! I want to start with one glass of Guava, and then work my way through the guest kegs like I'm snacking my way across them!
Hop BroNice. That's the appeal of this place: you can use it for a quick drink or a serious tasting. Let's swing by Kawasaki Azalea and decide together which tap to go for today.
