New taps


BEER MARROW, a beer pub on the 4th floor of the Kawada Building in Kichijoji, Tokyo, has announced two new arrivals. This time the lineup brings together BLACK TIDE BREWING from Kesennuma, Miyagi, and DD4D BREWING from Matsuyama, Ehime.

Full Power


BLACK TIDE BREWING's Full Power is a 4.0% Hazy IPA. In the post, it is described as a beer built around James' “FULL POWER” and aimed at the Kesennuma Beer Festival. It opens with a sweet, fruity aroma, then moves into a firm dank character and a solid bitterness, while staying easy to keep drinking.

ALTERING


DD4D BREWING's ALTERING is a 5.0% Golden Ale. The brewery notes floral and honey-like hop aromas, along with bread- and biscuit-like malt character, giving the beer a classic frame with a softer edge. The post also mentions a Kamen Rider Agito theme, adding a bit of story to the glass.

BEER MARROW sits in a convenient yet slightly tucked-away spot in Kichijoji, which makes it feel like a local beer stop with a hidden-bar mood. With these two taps, the choice is between a hop-forward Hazy IPA and a more balanced Golden Ale, depending on how you want to start, or slow down, the evening.
