CHICKEN BOY, a beer pub in Nagoya’s Imaike area, announced a guest beer on Instagram. The post says that Shiga Kogen’s “from scratch” has been tapped, making it clear that a new beer option is now on the menu.

The beer is Shiga Kogen Beer (Tamamura Honten)’s “from scratch / a blonde ale.” As the name suggests, it is a blonde ale with a light, clean profile. The brewery lists it at 5.0% ABV, which makes it an easy-going choice both as a first pint and as a beer to drink alongside food.

CHICKEN BOY’s appeal is that it pairs a beer-pub setting with rotating guest taps in the Imaike neighborhood. This post is a straightforward tap announcement rather than a multi-day event, but it is exactly the kind of update beer drinkers watch for when they want to know what is pouring now.
