Hop BroAt the beer pub TOWA in Ueno, a wild garlic snack will be available for a limited time.
MugiWhat, wild garlic? It's garlic, but not garlic!?
Hop BroThat's the interesting part. It's a perennial in the onion family. It has a garlic-like aroma, but it's actually a different plant.
MugiThat's confusing! But if it has a strong aroma, I can already tell it would go well with beer!
Hop BroGood read. The article says it's easy to pair with beers that have a solid, full flavor.
MugiAnd they're also tapping North Island's Ginzy today, right!
Hop BroExactly. It's even in the photos, and you can imagine it as a pairing with TOWA's limited snack.
MugiWhat kind of place is TOWA? It's near Ueno Station, and a second-floor beer pub sounds kind of like a hidden gem!
Hop BroExactly that. It's an Ueno spot that's easy to use when you want to take your time pairing craft beer with food.
MugiAnd if it's planned until around June, we'd better go while we can! A spring-to-early-summer taste is already reason enough to head out for drinks!
Hop BroJust imagining soy-marinated wild garlic with Ginzy is enough to make my stomach growl. I'm starting to really want tonight's drink.
MugiYeah, that's decided then! I want to toast in Ueno and enjoy aromatic snacks and craft beer!
