Hop BroMarumugi Beer Bar in Arakicho has five distinctive taps on October 5! This lineup begs for a tasting flight.
MugiFive beers?! With a 1,300-yen large pour, I’d want to choose my favorite carefully!
Hop BroThe standout is Minoh Beer’s Japanese Peach Weizen, Shimizu Hakuto version. At 5.0% ABV, it layers juicy peach over a light body.
MugiWhat even is a Weizen? It sounds like a magic spell! Is it basically peach juice beer?
Hop BroClose! A Weizen uses wheat and often has soft fruity aromas. This one has a clean, dry finish, so the peach stays refreshing rather than sugary.
MugiOoh, peach without cloying sweetness sounds perfect first. Then I’m eyeing the classic American IPA!
Hop BroShonan Beer’s “IPA American Style” is 6.0% ABV and lets hops lead the way: bitterness and citrus-like aroma in a hop-forward classic.
MugiHops are the star? Am I getting demoted to supporting cast?! But Repubrew’s lemongrass-scented lager sounds wonderfully zippy too!
Hop Bro“NO LEMON LAGER,” at 5.6% ABV, has lemongrass aromas reminiscent of spiced tea. And Romantic Village’s Maple Amber Ale brings a rich, sweetly toasty option.
MugiFinish with Shiga Kogen Beer’s “Baby Blonde Miyama” for its easy, one-more-pint drinkability! Peach, IPA, lager, amber—let’s go drink at Marumugi!
