Yokohama Beer and Shonan Beer to Release Collaboration Brew 'Ginjo Roman Ale' on April 14
At YOKOHAMA BEER STAND, the directly operated shop of Yokohama Beer Brewery, a guest tap project for the collaboration beer 'Ginjo Roman Ale' with Shonan Beer is underway. Service began on April 10, and on the release day of April 14, brewing manager Mr. Tsutsui is also scheduled to visit.
Hop BroThe guest tap project running at the directly operated shop of Yokohama Beer Brewery is pretty exciting.
MugiWhoa! What’s a guest tap? That’s the kind of thing readers would be curious about too! And you can drink it early from April 10?
Hop BroExactly. It’s a way of connecting a keg and serving it ahead of the release to build excitement. This time, the star is Ginjo Roman Ale.
MugiIt sounds delicious just from the name! But “ginjo” sounds kind of like sake, and ale is a type of beer, right?
Hop BroThat’s right. Ale is a top-fermented style of beer that tends to have more aroma. And the partner, Shonan Beer, is a brand with roots in Kumazawa Sake Brewery.
MugiWow! A sake brewery founded in Meiji 5 is the root? That’s so long ago I’m surprised. It feels like a sake elder, balancing tradition and freshness.
Hop BroThat’s what makes it interesting: Yokohama Beer also values local collaboration as the local beer company with the longest history in Yokohama City.
MugiI see, the closeness of Yokohama and Shonan turns right into a flavor conversation. I really love being able to see the faces of the makers!
Hop BroWhat’s more, on the April 14 tapping day, brewing manager Tsutsui is scheduled to visit around 19:00, and on that day they start accepting people from 16:00.
MugiWait, the person who made it is coming!? That’s basically a public event. Being able to meet the person behind the beer gives it plenty of live-event energy.
Hop BroExactly. Around the limited collaboration tap opening, it leaves a stronger impression than an ordinary pint, so just being a limited single keg makes the excitement go up.
MugiI’m completely craving it now! April 14 is the collaboration tapping day for Yokohama Beer and Shonan Beer, and I want to raise a toast together with everyone!
