Hop BroToday, BEER OTAKU SPICE in Tokyo’s Taito Ward is doing something interesting. In its April 26 service notice, it says lunch runs from 11:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. last order, and dinner from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. last order.
MugiWhoa, they’re going hard for both lunch and dinner! Just seeing a spice-restaurant written out like that is enough to make my stomach growl!
Hop BroAnd the lunch star is tuna biryani. Instead of meat, they use seafood, and the best part is how it stays easy to eat thanks to the balance of lightness and aroma.
MugiBiryani is that rice feast, right? Tuna in it sounds like a wildly free idea, but does it actually work?
Hop BroIt does. The spice profile doesn’t get too sharp, so the flavor of the fish still comes through, and the whole thing is designed around aroma so it doesn’t feel too heavy even at lunch.
MugiOhhh! And the beer is Ise Kadoya Beer too? That already sounds strong! Just the name gives off a serious deliciousness aura!
Hop BroThe beer on tap is DDH Citra Hazy IPA. DDH is a method that layers in plenty of dry hopping, and this one puts Citra hop citrus and the soft mouthfeel of a hazy IPA up front.
MugiDry hopping? What is that, a spell!? But hearing citrus aromas makes me want to drink it right away!
Hop BroPut simply, it’s a way of adding hops without heat to draw out the aroma. That’s why the fruity fragrance layers so nicely with the biryani’s spice.
MugiAnd they’re even offering lunch-only mazesoba too. This is the kind of day where you wish you had two stomachs! No matter what you eat today, it feels like a win, right?
Hop BroExactly. At lunch, choose between the tuna biryani and the mazesoba, then make the DDH Citra Hazy IPA the beer. You just want to go right away to enjoy the food-and-beer pairing.
MugiYeah, this is impossible! It makes me want to raise a glass at lunch, and today feels like it could be the best mood ever with spice and hazy beer!
The beer pub BEER OTAKU SPICE in Taito, Taito Ward, Tokyo, announced its menu and rotating draft beer lineup for April 26. Lunch runs from 11:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. last order, and dinner runs from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. last order, with the lunch period offering both biryani and mazesoba.
The biryani of the day is tuna. True to the restaurant’s identity as a spice-focused spot, the dish puts seafood at the center. Compared with a heavier meat-based biryani, it is easier to keep eating thanks to its balance of lightness and aroma. For a meal suited to the short lunch window, it is easy to pair with beer as well.
The beer pairing is Ise Kadoya Beer’s DDH Citra Hazy IPA. This hazy IPA puts Citra hops front and center, with citrus aromas and a soft fruity character. It is a beer that can stand up to the spice in the biryani while layering its aroma neatly over the dish. Once again, BEER OTAKU SPICE clearly shows off what it does best as a place where you can enjoy satisfying food and a substantial craft beer pour at the same table.
