Nagoya's GRILLMAN Plans to Tap Y.MARKET's "Decorian" and Shima Brewery's "Shiranuhi Ale"
On April 9, the beer pub Japan Craft Beer&Wine GRILLMAN in Nagoya's Nishiki district announced that it planned to tap Y.MARKET BREWING's "Decorian" and Shima Brewery's "Shiranuhi Ale" today. Both are fruit beers made with Shiranui (Dekopon), making them a fun side-by-side comparison.
Hop BroAt GRILLMAN in Nagoya's Nishiki district, the guest taps are going up today, with Y.MARKET BREWING's "Decorian" and Shima Brewery's "Shiranuhi Ale" side by side. And since both use Shiranui (Dekopon), it's a really interesting day for a tasting comparison.
MugiWhoa! Comparing beers made with the same fruit sounds so much fun. What kind of beer do you get when you put Dekopon into it?
Hop BroThe big thing is the citrus aroma and acidity. Whether the brewery pushes the juice character forward or leaves the aroma floating lightly is where the design shows through, so even with the same ingredient, the expression can be totally different.
MugiSeriously? So a brewery's personality really comes through that much? It's not just fruit thrown in, huh.
Hop BroExactly. Beer changes depending on how the recipe is built. With Y.MARKET's "Decorian," the fruit's outline will probably come through clearly, while Shima Brewery's "Shiranuhi Ale" may bring it together more gently. Just imagining the difference is fun, right?
MugiOhhh! The name Shiranuhi Ale is cute too, and it already sounds delicious before you even drink it. By the way, is GRILLMAN just about beer?
Hop BroIt's a beer pub where you can enjoy both beer and wine in a broad range. Since it's in Nagoya's Nishiki area and easy to stop by after work, it's the kind of place where you can just drop in for two drinks.
MugiAnd it opens at 3:00 p.m.! Being able to drink before evening is kind of unfair. That's the kind of place you'd want to go even on a rainy day.
Hop BroExactly. The post also says these beers are scheduled to be tapped today, so the timing is especially hot. Bring an umbrella, head in, and decide on your first drink the moment you walk through the door - that's probably the right move.
MugiThen I also want to try the domestic horse meat carpaccio! If it's yukhoe style, wouldn't that pair well with the fruit beers' light acidity?
Hop BroThat's exactly it. The combination of fruitiness and umami is great, so if you compare Decorian and Shiranuhi Ale and then go for the horse meat carpaccio, that would be ideal. Today really is a day when both of us should just go out for drinks.
Japan Craft Beer&Wine GRILLMAN in Nagoya's Nishiki district has shared its guest beer lineup for April 9. In the post, the venue announced its opening time as 3:00 p.m., while introducing the two kegs slated to be tapped today.
This time, the beers on offer are Y.MARKET BREWING's "Decorian" and Shima Brewery's "Shiranuhi Ale". Both are fruit beers made with Shiranui (Dekopon), and the bar is inviting guests to "compare them side by side." The key point here is being able to see how each brewery turns the same citrus ingredient into beer, with a focus on its bright citrus character.
On the food side, a new menu item has also been posted: domestic horse meat carpaccio, yukhoe style. It is available in limited quantities and will end once sold out. Its rich flavor should pair nicely with the light acidity and aroma of the fruit beers.
