Hop BroAt Evolve Beer&Kitchen in Mukojima, Sumida Ward, Minoh Beer's "Hoppy Weizen" has been newly tapped. It's an 11-tap lineup inside the shop, and it's the kind of place that makes you want a drink just by looking at it.
MugiWhat! 11 taps is too many, isn't it? And Hoppy Weizen sounds delicious just from the name alone. What is it!
Hop BroThis is Minoh Beer's hoppy Weizen. Weizen is a beer brewed with wheat, and when you add hop aroma to its soft, rounded mouthfeel, it becomes light and yet properly expressive.
MugiA wheat beer that's hoppy? My brain is getting tangled! Does that mean it smells strong but is easy to drink?
Hop BroExactly. And this shop's taps range from Pilsner and Rieslager to Session Black IPA, so the lineup spans from easy-drinking styles to fuller-bodied ones.
MugiWow, choosing is so much fun! But having Black Label on there somehow feels reassuring. Am I the only one?
Hop BroIt does feel reassuring, doesn't it? And because Minoh Beer has multiple labels on tap, it's fun that you can compare different moods from the same brewery. Ume-chu, Session Black IPA, they take different approaches.
MugiWait, the food is strong too? Macaroni cheese and pulled pork, that's basically food designed for drinking!
Hop BroThat's the great thing about Evolve. It's not just spiced dishes and snack items; there are fish dishes, homemade namul, and closing dishes like fried rice and pasta, so it's easy to build a meal to match the beer's intensity.
MugiI see, start light and then go heavier later. If there's even sea bream broth somen noodles, then finishing gently at the end is a good option.
Hop BroExactly. Around Tokyo Skytree, I think a place that can balance the fun of tasting beers side by side with satisfying food is pretty rare.
MugiI can't take it anymore, just reading this made me thirsty! Today, let's start with Hoppy Weizen, I'll have the macaroni cheese, and Hop-nii-san can explain while we go for the full lineup, okay?
