Shimosuwa's Chiitoko Shoten Opens on 3/23, New Tap Is FARMENTRY IPA
The beer pub "Dagashi to Beer to Coffee no Omise Chiitoko Shoten" in Shimosuwa, Nagano Prefecture, has released its business information for Monday, 3/23, along with that day's draft lineup. The new tap is FARMENTRY's "No.2 KISARAGI IPA." The lineup is set up so you can relax with a beer alongside coffee and baked goods.
Hop BroChiitoko Shoten in Shimosuwa being open on 3/23 is a pretty great lineup for a Monday, right? Dagashi, coffee, and beer make it the perfect place to drink with your shoulders relaxed.
MugiWait! That's so packed? And open from 10:00 to 22:00 means you can drop by from daytime all the way into the evening!
Hop BroExactly. The new tap this time is FARMENTRY's No.2 KISARAGI IPA. It's a series brewed with a different monthly theme, and this one has a particularly crisp finish.
MugiC-crisp? Is that some kind of secret move in the beer world? When you say dry finish, it suddenly sounds so grown-up!
Hop BroYeah, to put it simply, it's not very sweet and the aftertaste cuts off cleanly. Add solid bitterness on top of that, and the IPA character really comes forward.
MugiI see, so it's bitter but sounds easy to drink! And citrus-like hops sound like they'll wake up your nose with citrus aroma alone!
Hop BroExactly. The hop aroma comes across like lemon or grapefruit, giving it a slightly fruity impression even though it's beer.
MugiWow, today's tap list is interesting too! A tasting comparison of four beers means you can play around with everything from light to rich all at once!
Hop BroThat's right. You start by confirming the classic style with Baeren's Classic, check the liveliness with Field Ales' PINT, and then finish by digging into the malt character with Ise Kadoya Beer's Imperial Red Ale. It's a nice flow.
MugiIf they even have dagashi and baked sweets, it's basically perfect as a regular detour spot! If takeout is available too, it'll be impossible not to bring something home on the way back!
Hop BroYeah, having a drink at a place like this softens even the Monday mood a little. Starting today with FARMENTRY's IPA and finishing with coffee is making me want to go pretty badly.
Chiitoko Shoten, the "Dagashi to Beer to Coffee Shop" in Shimosuwa, will be open as usual on Monday, 3/23, from 10:00 to 22:00. Even on the Monday after a three-day weekend, it will welcome guests with its familiar style centered on craft beer and coffee.
New Tap
The new tap for the day is FARMENTRY's No.2 KISARAGI IPA. In the post, it is introduced as part of an IPA series brewed with a different theme each month, and it is described as having a dry finish, firm bitterness, and a hop character with citrus notes.
Draft Lineup (Today's Beer)
- Classic (Baeren Brewery)
- PINT ~City Ale~ (Field Ales)
- No.2 KISARAGI IPA (FARMENTRY)
- Imperial Red Ale (Ise Kadoya Beer)
The highlight this time is the chance to compare four different beers in a single day, from light ales to bitterness-forward IPAs and malt-driven red ales. True to the shop's name, its relaxed atmosphere, where you can enjoy dagashi, baked sweets, and coffee alongside your drink, is also part of what makes it distinctive. The post also says takeout is welcome, so it looks like it will be an easy place to stop by in everyday life, not just for an in-house drink.
