MugiWhoa! It’s right by the station and still that serious? Being able to grab a drink while shopping is insanely convenient!
Hop BroAnd the recommended pick is Tokaido Beer’s classic, Kuroi Shikan. It’s a Porter at 7%, and the nice thing is that it has the richness of a dark beer without drinking too heavy.
MugiA Porter, huh? Dark but easy to drink? That’s messing with my head. What do you mean by a dark beer that drinks light?
Hop BroThe key is the aroma from the globe hops, and it comes in with a sweet, banana-like scent. It’s like the roasted character of dark malt layered with the ester aroma from the yeast.
MugiWow, so a dark beer that’s fruity too? That sounds like it’s more than just bitter. It feels like a dark beer you drink for the aroma!
Hop BroThe lineup is interesting too: FRO AGARI YELL, Mugi no Deaiai, Guava, Tamakujaku, Yoi no Iro, and UTAMARO ALE are all on tap, so it’s fun to compare beers with Tokaido Beer at the center.
MugiWhat a list, I’m getting tipsy just from the names! But if Oriental Brewing and HAKUBA Craft are in there too, the guest taps are pretty luxurious, so I’d have trouble choosing!
Hop BroAnd on top of that, food is allowed in, which is a huge advantage. If you stop by with your favorite snacks, you can build your own pairing with the draft beer.
MugiThat’s amazing! Then let’s meet at the station today and start with a drink before the party. If we warm up with Kuroi Shikan, I don’t think we’ll be able to stop!
