Introducing the 11th Anniversary Beer 'San' at TOWA in Ueno

At the beer pub "TOWA" in Ueno, Taito City, Tokyo, service of the 11th anniversary beer 'San' has begun. In an Instagram post on April 27, it was introduced as an anniversary beer created in collaboration with T.Y.HARBOR, and the fact that it took a little time before it was tapped suggests that this is a milestone pint for the shop.

Style: Imperial Red

'San' is an imperial red. As its deep color suggests, it is designed to deliver a strong malt aroma, and its alcohol content is 7%. While the mouthfeel is substantial, the finish is said to be surprisingly crisp. Rather than being a beer where heaviness dominates, it seems likely to stay balanced even as you keep drinking.

The post describes it as a beer that makes you want to keep going, one more sip after another, and TOWA says it is satisfying enough to feel like it does not need a side dish. It is a beer well suited not only to pairing with food, but also to sitting down and appreciating on its own.

Open Until 11 p.m., a Place You Can Drop Into Easily in Ueno

TOWA is a beer pub on the second floor at 6-11-12 Ueno, offering craft beer in a relaxed atmosphere. Although it was raining on the day of the post, the shop said it would remain open until 11 p.m., making it easy to stop by after work or in between sightseeing around Ueno. Reservations are accepted through the link in the profile.

Anniversary beers often reflect the relationship between the shop and the brewery in their flavor. 'San' is also worth noting as a beer that gives shape to TOWA's milestone through its collaboration with T.Y.HARBOR. Its dark color, malt aroma, and 7% presence combine to create the kind of memorable drinking experience that suits an anniversary beer.
