Takadanobaba Beer Shokudo updates two guest hazy IPAs from Hazy Labo and Break Edge
On June 10, Takadanobaba Beer Shokudo updated its guest beer lineup with two hazy IPAs: Hazy Labo’s Trinity Glow EX V2 and Break Edge’s Truth. The Takadanobaba beer pub offers weekday evening service and weekend daytime drinking.
Hop BroTakadanobaba Beer Shokudo just pulled off a two-keg refresh on June 10. Hazy Labo's Trinity Glow EX V2 and Break Edge's Truth are both on, and both are hazy IPAs.
MugiWhat! A full-on hazy IPA party? Even the names sound soft, cloudy, and dangerously tasty!
Hop BroThe first headliner is Trinity Glow EX V2. It's a 7.5% hazy IPA from Hazy Labo, the kind that promises juicy aroma and a thicker sip.
MugiOoh, then Truth at 6.5% from Break Edge sounds a little lighter and easier to crush? That already feels like a trap in the best way.
Hop BroThat's exactly why the pairing works so well: the ABV gap makes each beer's flavor profile pop. The 7.5% should feel richer, while the 6.5% may show more balance and ease.
MugiHold on, what was that word you slipped in there, mouthfeel? Is that beer science or are we talking about my face now?
Hop BroBeer science, definitely. Texture in the mouth is what it means, like whether the beer feels smoothie-like and plush or lighter and more flowing.
MugiGot it! And Takadanobaba Beer Shokudo has a 3 p.m. weekday opening, right? That's late-lunch energy pretending to be after-work plans!
Hop BroRight, and on weekends and holidays it opens at noon. If it gets crowded, there's a 2.5-hour limit, and the room tends to carry sound, so it sounds like a lively place to drink hazies.
MugiI can already picture it. This is a day-drinking champion. Do I start with Trinity Glow EX V2 or warm up with Truth first?
Hop BroHonestly, the correct answer is probably both. A hazy IPA comparison like this is perfect for catching the differences in aroma and texture, especially with food.
MugiThen it's settled, I want to head to Takadanobaba and line up both glasses. Tonight or this weekend, this is exactly the kind of update that makes me want a pint.
