Beerbomb_shinjuku posted its latest tap update at 4:48 PM on March 19. In addition to three new taps from Belching Beaver, Okei Brewery, and Jungle Juice Brewing, it also announced a joint Tap Take Over by Nude Beer × Flora Fermentation scheduled for April 5 at 3:00 PM.
Hop BroToday's Shinjuku topic: three new Beerbomb taps just dropped. And there's a teaser for a Nude Beer × Flora Fermentation joint TTO on April 5 at 3:00 PM!
MugiWhoa, that's a ton of information at once! What kind of beers are the three new taps?
Hop BroThe lineup is great: Phantom Bride IPA from Belching Beaver, plus Jungle Juice Brewing's Baba Jaga, an American IPA, and the way they express hops is pretty different.
MugiWhat! Saying the way they express hops suddenly makes this sound like science class!?
Hop BroWhat I mean here is their “design philosophy” - basically how they balance aroma and bitterness. Whether they lead with citrus or leave a piney bitterness behind, each brewery is aiming for something different!
MugiOhhh, so the Nippori Kölsch they said they'd slot in between is like a palate reset?
Hop BroExactly. Okei Brewery's Kölsch has a clean finish, so it's perfect for resetting the palate. It's a great supporting role for comparing the two IPAs.
MugiNice! And the April 5 joint TTO, seven taps each sounds way too serious to miss!
Hop BroYeah, and because Beerbomb_shinjuku is planning Flora's first pour, it's definitely one to watch. Even without the details yet, there's already a strong reason to go!
MugiI want to head straight there after work... just hearing a street-front spot in Nishi-Shinjuku makes the first pint feel real!
Hop BroThen it's decided: start with an IPA, reset with a Kölsch, and go with tonight's tasting plan!
Shinjuku's Nishi-Shinjuku beer pub Beerbomb_shinjuku shared its latest new tap openings on Instagram that day. The announcement covered three beers with different styles. Centered on IPA styles that let you enjoy hop-derived aroma and bitterness, the lineup also includes a Kölsch with a clean finish, making it an easy set for side-by-side tasting.
New taps announced that day
- Phantom Bride (Belching Beaver / IPA)
- Nippori Kölsch (Okei Brewery / Kölsch)
- Baba Jaga (Jungle Juice Brewing / American IPA)
From a “seriously hoppy pour” to a “light, highly drinkable pour,” the point is that even within the same bitterness-driven category, each beer has a different expression. In particular, the two IPAs make it easy to feel the difference in each brewery's design philosophy, and the Kölsch in between helps reset the palate while you taste.
The post also previewed a joint Tap Take Over by Nude Beer × Flora Fermentation starting April 5 at 3:00 PM. Both breweries are scheduled to pour seven taps each, and attention is also focusing on Flora Fermentation's first-ever serving at Beerbomb_shinjuku. Details are said to follow, but beyond the usual business-day lineup, there is now another reason to go with purpose.
Beerbomb_shinjuku is a beer pub at street level in Nishi-Shinjuku 7-chome. Its strengths are its location and atmosphere, making it easy to use both for a drink after work and for a weekend tasting session where you settle in. At a shop like this, where taps change day by day, the more you follow the latest tap-opening updates and visit, the broader the range of flavors you can encounter.
