Hop BroThe beer pub Highbury -The Cave of Beer- in Momijizaka, Yokohama, which opens at 2:00 PM, is putting out a notice that you can start drinking early today. It’s within walking distance of Sakuragicho Station, so it feels like the kind of place where you could slip in for a daytime drink after work, even if you’re not actually off yet.
MugiWait, from 2:00 PM!? That’s a day-drinking chance! Beer lovers would be so happy to see a place open that early.
Hop BroAnd because it’s only 15 seats in a small shop, it really feels like a place for calmly enjoying the beer itself rather than a big lively beer hall. The Cave vibe fits the name perfectly.
MugiCave means, like, a cave, right? A cave-like shop sounds a little scary, but somehow it also seems like it would be relaxing...!
Hop BroExactly. It has a dim, quiet feel. The feature article says they carefully store beers from Belgium and the UK, and even serve the classic Sapporo Black Label through a special tap, which is pretty interesting.
MugiA tap can make that much difference!? Black Label getting special treatment sounds like enough reason to drink it already! I wonder if the usual beer becomes like a different person.
Hop BroIt really does. Another highlight here is the British-style cask ale. Instead of pushing it with strong carbonation, it comes gently from the cask, letting you enjoy the temperature and aroma slowly.
MugiWow, so it’s not the kind of beer where only the foam is energetic. If the aroma and temperature change that much, I might want to compare them side by side!
Hop BroExactly. This place is strong not just because it’s unusual, but because it also serves the classics really well. If you’re going out in Yokohama for beer, it’s the kind of shop where starting with an early drink feels right.
MugiGot it, then today is officially one drink in Momijizaka! First the cask ale, then the Black Label too, because that’s definitely going to be good!
Hop BroNice, then let’s finish with a toast over beer. This one place in Yokohama really hits the spot on days when you want to drink quietly and slowly.
