The beer pub Jibeer Bar Marumugi in Arakicho, Shinjuku Ward, Tokyo, has released its craft beer lineup for May 3. From COEDO's standard IPA to a yuzu-scented pale ale and a black lager reminiscent of coffee, five distinct kegs are on tap.
Hop BroShinjuku's Arakicho craft beer bar Marumugi has lined up five draft beers for May 3. It's a pretty strong lineup if you want to do a tasting during the holiday break.
MugiFive kinds? That means today is basically choose-your-own-adventure! I'm already stuck deciding where to start!
Hop BroStart with COEDO's Marihana-Marihana-. It's a citrus-scented session IPA, so it's perfect as the first glass because it's so easy to drink.
MugiWhat's a session IPA? You mean like a light IPA? Something that sounds strong but is actually gentle?
Hop BroBasically, it has a full aroma but a light, crisp drinking feel. Think of it as an IPA with the alcohol presence and heaviness toned down so it's easy to have several glasses.
MugiGot it! Then next is Romantic Village Craft Brewery's straight-up Citra attack, right? Just from the name it sounds like the hops are going to explode!
Hop BroExactly. Fruit Basket IPA Citra Ver. is for people who want to really enjoy hop aroma, and after that Y.MARKET BREWING's yuzu-fragrant pale ale is a great follow-up.
MugiA yuzu pale ale sounds delicious! It must have that refreshing fruity feel. Perfect before summer, right?
Hop BroYeah, Yellow Sky Pale Ale is exactly in that direction. And VECTOR BREWING's Orange Field Hop Alien goes at it with juicy orange and hop character.
MugiThe name itself is already cosmic! And the last one is that black-but-light beer from Repubrew, right? The gap between its look and taste is going to be amazing!
Hop BroRight, AGE AGE SAME AGE looks black but drinks like a light smoky lager. At 1,200 yen + tax for the large size and 900 yen + tax for the small size, it's the kind of night that makes you want to settle in and compare beers slowly at Marumugi in Arakicho.
MugiWow, this is such a night for tasting side by side! I definitely want to stop by Marumugi during the holiday break and check each one out a glass at a time!
