Yokohama Bay Brewing Kannai Main Store Begins Selling Collaboration Beer "GOLD LABEL" with Chuckanut
At Yokohama Bay Brewing's Kannai Main Store, sales have begun for the collaboration beer "GOLD LABEL," brewed with Chuckanut Brewery of Washington State, USA. The taproom offers 14 beers, from house-brewed staples to more distinctive styles, making it a great place to enjoy a true Kannai beer pub tasting experience.
Hop BroA collaboration beer has arrived in Yokohama's Kannai district. You can now drink "GOLD LABEL," brewed with Chuckanut Brewery, at Yokohama Bay Brewing's Kannai Main Store.
MugiWait, wait! Just the name "GOLD LABEL" already sounds super premium! Does it come with a gold crown or something?
Hop BroThe beer itself is solid too. It's a Czech-style Pilsner. A clear pale lager with a bready malt character and the spicy, floral bitterness of Saaz hops layered on top.
MugiHold on, hold on, what is "Saaz hops"!? That sounds like a spell, and suddenly beer feels like it's in a fantasy world?
Hop BroSaaz is a hop variety, and it gives off a very elegant, soft aroma. So instead of bitterness that hits you hard, it leaves a clean, spicy finish.
MugiWow! And they have 14 taps in the bar, so just choosing your first drink is already a recipe for getting lost!
Hop BroExactly. They have Bay Pilsner and GO CZECH! of course, but also Bay Dark, Bay Weiss, and Yuzu Weiss, so tasting your way through them is half the fun. From pilsners to dark beers, it has that wide range that feels so Kannai.
MugiSeriously? And if it opens at 1:00 p.m., that means you can enjoy beer in broad daylight, right?
Hop BroThat's right. Last orders are at 10:30 p.m., so you can take your time even after work. As a place to grab a drink in Kannai, it's a pretty strong choice.
MugiNow I definitely want a beer! Let's start with that golden pint and then work our way through the classics one by one, Hop-bro!
Hop BroSounds good. We'll toast with GOLD LABEL first, and before we know it, it'll turn into having just one more. Kannai nights can get pretty dangerous and delicious.
At Yokohama Bay Brewing's Kannai Main Store, a beer pub in Yokohama's Kannai district, sales have begun for the collaboration beer "GOLD LABEL" brewed with Chuckanut Brewery.
"GOLD LABEL" is a Czech-style Pilsner. It is a medium-bodied, brilliantly clear pale lager designed around a rich, bread-like malt backbone, layered with the spicy, floral bitterness and aroma derived from Saaz hops. The post introduces it as a collaboration between Chuckanut Brewery in Washington State, USA, and Yokohama Bay Brewing.
On this day, in addition to the collaboration beer, Yokohama Bay Brewing's taps were also well stocked. Alongside staples such as "Bay Pilsner" and "GO CZECH!", the lineup ranged widely and included "Svetly Lezak," "Bay Dark," "Bay Weiss," "Yuzu Weiss," "Apple Weiss," "Freedom," "Travelers," "Beer Terrace," "Bunny Hop," "Uncle Rinne," "Goooooaaaaa!!!!!," and "Flatland." It is a lineup that feels very much like this shop, offering an easy side-by-side comparison of pilsners, weiss beers, dark beers, and hoppy brews.
Business hours are 13:00 to 23:00, with last orders at 22:30. As a shop that has led Yokohama's craft beer culture, it is a highly satisfying stop whether you come for the collaboration beer or to compare the regular lineup. If you are looking for a pint in Kannai, this is one place to put at the top of the list.
