Novel Craft posts a seven-beer tap list, including Reflection
The Setagaya beer pub Novel Craft shared its 5 p.m. opening notice along with a seven-beer tap list. The lineup includes the Cave D'occi x Novel Craft collaboration Reflection, plus house beers Sweep, BPM 80, and Down Tempo.
Hop BroNovel Craft in Minami-Karasuyama, Setagaya just posted a 5 p.m. opening with seven taps, and honestly, that lineup has serious pull.
MugiWhat! Seven beers at once? If I saw that after work, my willpower to go straight home would evaporate instantly!
Hop BroThe headline grabber is definitely the Reflection collaboration from Cave D'occi and Novel Craft, plus three house brews: Sweep, BPM 80, and Down Tempo.
MugiNo way, three house brews already sounds stacked, and then they add a collab too? That tap list is causing a traffic jam!
Hop BroThe guest side is solid too: Kemkur's Coolship Pils, Ruse Brewing's Glass Shadows IPA, and Minoh Beer's Spring Lager, so it runs from lagers to IPA with a nice spread.
MugiHold on, Coolship Pils already sounds intense. I almost pictured a cold ship docking at the pub!
Hop BroNot a ship, it's a brewing vessel used to cool wort across a wide surface. In simple terms, think of it as a name that hints at an old-school cooling method.
MugiWow! The way a pilsner name alone can launch you into brewing mode is honestly impressive. Also... now I want to try it.
Hop BroAnd because they're preparing a July food menu change, they'll only have simple snacks that day, plus they're closed the next day, so it's really a beer-first kind of night.
MugiThat actually sounds perfect! I want to compare Sweep and BPM 80 and really figure out the brewery's personality.
Hop BroExactly, and if you add Down Tempo and Reflection, you've got a lineup where side-by-side tasting works beautifully. The contrast with the guest beers should be fun.
MugiI'm sold! My first glass right now would be Spring Lager, and then I'd work my way to Reflection. Reading this made me completely want a beer.

The caption also said the venue would serve only simple snacks because it is replacing its food menu from July, and that it would be closed the following day.
