Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke Store Announces Three New Taps on May 21
On May 21, Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke store announced today's tap list. Hansharo Beer's 'Agari Red Lager,' Harvest Moon's 'Pilsner,' and Yuya Boys' 'Flower Children _SAKURA' were newly tapped, creating a lineup you can compare in the basement of Akasaka-Mitsuke.
Hop BroToday we've got three new taps. At Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke, Hansharo Beer's 'Agari Red Lager,' Harvest Moon's 'Pilsner,' and Yuya Boys' 'Flower Children _SAKURA' are all on the board.
MugiWhoa, all three at once! Being able to compare them in the basement of Akasaka-Mitsuke feels kind of like a secret hideout, and I love that!
Hop BroAnd on top of that, they have 31 taps on permanent rotation. They focus on domestic craft beer, and they're really good at making a place where you can swing by for just one drink after work or stay and compare a few.
MugiThirty-one taps is amazing, but what exactly is a tap list? Is it like the list of faucets for the day?
Hop BroThat's basically right. Today it's built around lager, pilsner, and IPA, so it's easy to start light and finish with hop character.
MugiWhat, that's super easy to choose from! But is a session IPA still an IPA if it's light? The name is a little confusing!
Hop BroJust think of a session IPA as an easy-drinking IPA. Yuya Boys' 'Flower Children _SAKURA' is 4.5% ABV, so you get the aroma without it feeling too heavy.
MugiOhhh! Then what kind of beer is Hansharo Beer's Agari Red Lager? Just hearing 'red' makes me think it might be sweet!
Hop BroThat's what makes it interesting. As the name Japanese Tea Red Lager suggests, it's a beer that brings to mind the crispness of a lager plus a tea-like nuance, and it also makes the Shizuoka character easier to feel.
MugiWow, being able to compare regional character too is the best! There's also Harvest Moon's Pilsner from Chiba, so today I want to do a triangle drink, not a triangle meal!
Hop BroThat's a good idea. It's also a beer restaurant that goes great with fried foods, so it's the kind of place where you drink, eat, and then want one more beer at the end.
MugiYeah, I can't hold back anymore! I want to head down to the basement in Akasaka-Mitsuke to check out what domestic craft beer is doing right now!
Hop BroDeal. Start with a pilsner to get your palate set, then the red lager, and finish with the session IPA. Tonight, let's do a tasting comparison.
Today's Tap List
Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke store is a beer pub in the basement near Akasaka-Mitsuke Station. With 31 taps, it is known as a place where you can mainly enjoy domestic craft beer. The white-toned, calm interior feels comfortable whether you are stopping in for just one drink after work or taking your time comparing several beers.
In the May 21 post, the following three beers were newly tapped.
- Hansharo Beer 'Agari Red Lager / Japanese Tea Red Lager' (Shizuoka, Alc. 5)
- Harvest Moon 'Pilsner / Pilsner' (Chiba, Alc. 5.5)
- Yuya Boys 'Flower Children _SAKURA / Session IPA' (Tokyo, Alc. 4.5)
Looking at the lineup, the styles clearly span lager, pilsner, and session IPA, making it easy to choose according to your mood, from a light, easy-drinking pour to a glass that lets you enjoy hop aroma. The breweries are also from Shizuoka, Chiba, and Tokyo, so one of the charms is being able to compare the regional character within the same day's tap list.
The food is typical of a beer restaurant centered on Western-style dishes, and the strong point of this place is how well it pairs with fried foods and other richly flavored plates. In Akasaka-Mitsuke, this is a tap update worth checking when you want to see what the current domestic craft beer scene is like.
