Hop BroToday's topic is the March 16 tap update! Awashima Soko in Setagaya has lined up distinctive beers from five domestic breweries.
MugiWhoa! Five at once!? That's basically a beer festival!
Hop BroThe lineup is great: YOROCCO's "Natsumikan SAISON," Mugizakkoku Kobo's "Haru no Ogawa," Nara Brewing's "LIGHT HOUSE," Kyoto Brewing's "Haru no Kimagure," and Nobody's "The Triphop" - all five beers in one go.
MugiWhat?! Hearing "Farmhouse Ale" makes me feel like I'm suddenly starting a farm class!
Hop BroNice reaction. Natsumikan SAISON is a saison, and Farmhouse Ale is roughly speaking a light, food-friendly style. Haru no Ogawa's Rice Ale is also the kind you can drink smoothly.
MugiOhhh! So Nara Brewing's LIGHT HOUSE means the Micro Porter is a dark beer that's not too heavy?
Hop BroExactly. And with Kyoto Brewing's IPA and Nobody's Hazy IPA in the hop lineup, you can even do a bitterness vs. juiciness comparison.
MugiA clean IPA and a hazy one side by side!? My tongue is going into judge mode today!
Hop BroThe hours are easy to use too: weekdays 18:00-24:00 (food L.O. 23:00, drinks L.O. 23:30). The lineup changes quickly, so early checking is recommended.
MugiThat's decided then! Going from saison to hazy at Awashima Soko, and then saying, "One more!" - I can already see that future!
The beer pub Awashima Soko in Daita, Setagaya Ward, revealed its "TODAY'S on Tap" lineup for Monday, March 16 on Instagram. This time's selection features five beers that strike a good balance between springlike lightness and satisfying depth.
First up is YOROCCO's "Natsumikan SAISON". As the subtitle suggests, it is a Farmhouse Ale brewed with summer oranges, making it a pour for those who want to enjoy citrus notes. Next, Mugizakkoku Kobo's "Haru no Ogawa" is a Rice Ale, built for an easy-drinking character that should pair well with food.
On the darker side, Nara Brewing's "LIGHT HOUSE" (Micro Porter) is on tap. As a porter that is not too heavy, it is an easy choice even between IPAs. The hop-forward selections come in two styles: Kyoto Brewing's "Haru no Kimagure" (IPA) and Nobody's "The Triphop" (Hazy IPA). The strength of this day's lineup is that you can compare clean bitterness with juicy hazy character side by side.
