Hop BroThe star of the day at BeerSpace On Tap in the basement in Kobe's Motomachi is Shiga Kogen Beer’s Shiga Kogen Porter (Real Ale ver.).
MugiWhoa! What does Real Ale ver. even mean? How is it different from a regular porter?
Hop BroSimply put, it’s a serving style meant for slowly enjoying the beer, and the key point here is that it’s being served on nitro.
MugiNitro sounds like a science lab all of a sudden! Does it change the foam on a dark beer?
Hop BroExactly. It creates a fine, creamy head, and the roasted aroma and malt character spread smoothly.
MugiNice! It really feels like a beer you want to sip slowly. Perfect for the night.
Hop BroAnd what’s great is that it’s on the B1 floor of Kobe Plaza Hotel, with a real old-fashioned atmosphere. There are only 11 seats, so you can really focus on the beer.
MugiWait, just 11 seats? That actually makes it sound even better for a relaxed drink.
Hop BroToday’s Today's on Tap is interesting too, with not just dark beer but also gose, ale, and flavor-driven styles.
MugiReally? A wide tap lineup sounds fun just to browse!
Hop BroFor example, you’ve got VERTERE / Iris, SORACHI 1984, and even Nara Brewing / UNDERWATER : LUMINOUS, so you can wander from dark to light styles.
MugiNow I really want to go! A slow drink in Motomachi sounds like the perfect way to end the day, doesn’t it?
