GOOD CONDITION STAND Keeps 6 Taps Running, RIKRI BREWING's 'Pepperoni Quattro' Waiting in Reserve
The beer pub GOOD CONDITION STAND in Shin-Ohashi, Koto Ward, Tokyo, released its tap list for March 31. Six draft beers are on the board, with no new taps. RIKRI BREWING's "Pepperoni Quattro," due to arrive the next day, is also waiting in the wings.
Hop BroGOOD CONDITION STAND in Shin-Ohashi, Koto Ward, Tokyo, came out with its March 31 lineup with 6 taps still running. There are no new taps, but the current lineup is pretty fun.
MugiWait, it's fun even with no new taps!? That actually makes me more curious, like it's a straight-up showdown among the beers already there!
Hop BroExactly. First there's BREWMIN''s "Mabu de Kyun Juicy [IPA]," and TOKYO ALEWORKS' "DH Sour Sorbet Mango [Fruit Sour]" is on the board too. So the range runs wide between IPA and fruit sour.
MugiHold on, doesn't the name "DH Sour Sorbet Mango" already contain way too much information!? It feels like my mouth is going to be full of mango before I even drink it!
Hop BroThere's also Gahaha Beer "CROSS POINT XPA [Extra Pale Ale]," FLORA FERMENTATION's "Hibagon [Dank IPA (Hazy IPA)]," and Orion Draft Beer on Keg [Pilsner], so the strength is in being able to choose across styles. XPA is a little lighter than IPA, and Dank is the kind of beer where the hop's green, resinous character really stands out.
MugiWhat is that!? Did the hops come from a forest? Green and resinous sounds way too advanced for me!
Hop BroTo put it simply, it means the hop character is front and center. There is also NAT.BREW and Tanigawa Brewery's "It's Always Sunny Above the Clouds ft. Tanigawa Brewery [Weizen]," so it's nice to have a breather with the soft wheat character of a Weizen.
MugiOhh! With that soft wheat feel, your tongue can rest after getting surprised by the hops. It's balanced, and somehow the lineup feels kind.
Hop BroWhat's more, the post says the NAT.BREW Weizen is expected to be kicked soon, and the next beer in reserve is RIKRI BREWING's "Pepperoni Quattro [West Coast Pilsner]," due to arrive tomorrow. It's impressive that even the next understudy is already visible.
MugiWhoa, a West Coast Pilsner? That's another new face, isn't it? A pilsner with a West Coast vibe is the kind of thing that makes you want to drink just from hearing the name!
Hop BroThe food menu is strong too, with century egg tofu, smoked duck with garlic, and loaded garlic-butter toast. Opening at 5:00 p.m. and closing at 11:00 p.m., it's a place where you can take your time from the first drink to the last.
MugiNow I really want to go! If I can enjoy it from the first drink to the last, let's start with an IPA today and finish with a pilsner!
GOOD CONDITION STAND in Shin-Ohashi, Koto Ward, Tokyo, announced its current tap list together with its March 31 business information.
The day's draft lineup has six beers. On tap are BREWMIN' 'Mabu de Kyun Juicy [IPA],' TOKYO ALEWORKS 'DH Sour Sorbet Mango [Fruit Sour],' Gahaha Beer 'CROSS POINT XPA [Extra Pale Ale],' NAT.BREW and Tanigawa Brewery 'It's Always Sunny Above the Clouds ft. Tanigawa Brewery [Weizen],' FLORA FERMENTATION 'Hibagon [Dank IPA (Hazy IPA)],' and 'Orion Draft Beer on Keg [Pilsner].' From IPA to fruit sour, Weizen, and pilsner, it's a lineup that lets you move across a wide range of styles.
The post says there are no new taps today, but the NAT.BREW Weizen is expected to be kicked soon. As the next beer waiting in the wings, RIKRI BREWING's 'Pepperoni Quattro [West Coast Pilsner]' is scheduled to arrive tomorrow, so the next rotation is already in sight.
On the food side, the bar offers snacks such as century egg tofu, smoked duck with garlic, a loaded garlic-butter toast, and an Iberico and Sangen pork stir-fry with pickled ginger and pepper mayo. It also stocks canned beer, canned hard cider, and cup sake from all over Japan, which is very much in keeping with the place.
Hours are 5:00 p.m. open and 11:00 p.m. close. It is closed on Sundays and Mondays, making it a relaxed place to spend time from the first drink to the last at a Tokyo beer pub. In April, there are also plans for a collaboration with Yamaimo Steak Naru-san and a flower pop-up by Shappobana-san, so it is worth watching as a place to enjoy not just the beer, but the atmosphere of the bar itself.
