Craft Beer Market Kanda Store Releases IPA-Focused Tap List Updated on 5/19
In Craft Beer Market Kanda Store's "Today's Beers" update on 5/19, the lineup is built around IPA, with a broad selection ranging from session IPA and hazy IPA to double IPA. At this spot, known for its lamb dishes, you can take your time enjoying a rotating draft beer lineup.
Hop BroThe tap list at Craft Beer Market Kanda, just a 30-second walk from the south exit of Kanda Station, got updated on 5/19 and it's pretty interesting. It's IPA-centered, so today's lineup is great for a proper tasting comparison.
MugiWait, 30 seconds on foot!? That's almost unfairly close to the station. And if it's IPA-focused, that's the kind of place that makes you want to walk in right away!
Hop BroExactly. And the lineup is really well put together. You've got bottles like Ocean Avenue, Marihana, Punk IPA, and Shiga Kogen IPA all lined up, with a strong core of aroma and bitterness.
MugiWhat? You say it's IPA-centered, but what's the actual difference between session, hazy, and double? The names all sound way too intense already!
Hop BroIn broad terms, it's a difference in drinkability and intensity. Session IPA is easy to drink, hazy IPA is juicy and aromatic, and double IPA has a much stronger alcohol presence and hop punch. The great thing today is that you can compare all of those ranges at once.
MugiOhhh, so it's basically a tasting paradise. And with names like CHORYO HAZY IPA - Spring - and KCBC BREWERY Roboclock, even the labels alone get you excited!
Hop BroGood catch. On top of that, there are crisp West Coast-style beers and refreshing options like HOKAZE - Sea Breeze -. Whether you want aroma first or bitterness first, there's a lot to choose from today.
MugiWow, just choosing sounds like enough to make me tipsy! And it's not just beer, right? The lamb dishes are the house specialty? That has to be an amazing pairing!
Hop BroThat's one of the best things about the Kanda location. The pairing with lamb dishes works so well that the hop bitterness and citrus notes are nicely supported by the meat's savory flavor. You could also bridge the lineup with a pilsner or weizen.
MugiThen I'll start with a Hoegaarden White, move on to a hazy IPA, and finish with a double IPA! Just thinking about it is making me hungry!
Hop BroThat's the plan. With the 30-beer all-you-can-drink option too, you can follow the rotating draft lineup and take it easy with a pint in Kanda tonight. Read this and you already want to go, don't you?
MugiYeah, tonight's drink is decided! Chase the IPAs, snack on lamb, and then have one more round... that's definitely the kind of night that leads straight to drinking!
