Belgian White Is Well Received at Gahaha Beer, and the Spring-Facing "Blank Slate" Is Now on Tap
Brewpub Gahaha Beer in Minamisuna, Koto Ward, Tokyo, updated its post on April 7. Following its well-received Belgian White, "Blank Slate" is now on tap, creating a lineup of spring-like white beers to enjoy.
Hop BroAt Gahaha Beer in Minamisuna, Koto Ward, Tokyo, the double headline of white-style beers is in motion. Following the well-received Belgian White, the springtime "Blank Slate" has been tapped.
MugiWait, Blank Slate sounds interesting already! Are you drinking a blank sheet of paper!?
Hop BroNo, no, it is beer. Belgian White is a white-beer style that tends to bring out wheat and spice notes, and its light drinking feel suits the spring air.
MugiBelgian White means it is Belgian? And somehow white but wheat is making my head feel fuzzy!
Hop BroExactly. Here, white refers more to the style name than the color. Gahaha Beer is a brewpub on the first floor of a housing complex, and the strength is that you can enjoy the house-brewed beer as a brew izakaya.
MugiBeing able to drink inside a housing complex is amazing! And the concept of something to laugh while drinking is laid-back and I love it!
Hop BroThe regular lineup is interesting too, with Baba's Blonde, Marcy IPA, Danchi Ale, Shall Wheat Dance, Gahaha's Porter, and Soratabi IPA, so the range of flavors is pretty wide.
MugiThat is the kind of lineup that makes me hesitate...! Having both IPA and ESB means, as a beginner, I just freeze up over where to start!
Hop BroIn that case, starting with a white-style beer is recommended. Drink the rainy-day-fresh "Blank Slate" first, then move on to seafood or heartier snacks, and the real value of a meal-time beer becomes easy to appreciate.
MugiThat makes sense, it is perfect for a spring drink! I already want to go right now and do a regular lineup tasting too!
Hop BroExactly. Comparing the guest-like "Blank Slate" with the regular lineup is part of the fun. Today, I want to laugh and drink Gahaha Beer's spring white beer.
A spring-friendly white beer enjoyed inside a housing complex
At Gahaha Beer, a brewpub located inside a housing complex in Minamisuna, Koto Ward, Tokyo, white-style beers were in motion alongside its April 7 post. The post referenced the previously popular "Belgian White" and announced that "Blank Slate" had been tapped, bringing a light, refreshing beer to the forefront that fits the air after the rain.
Gahaha Beer is a "brew izakaya" where you can taste house-brewed beer on site. The shop's concept is "beer is something to laugh while drinking," and even though it sits in the somewhat unexpected location of the first floor of a housing complex, its appeal is that you can enjoy craft beer without being uptight. It is also conveniently within walking distance of Toyocho Station, making it an easy stop after work or for daytime drinking on weekends.
The range of beers available is broad, and the regular lineup includes "Baba's Blonde," "Marcy IPA," "Danchi Ale," "Shall Wheat Dance," "Gahaha's Porter," and "Soratabi IPA." With beers of different character such as blonde, IPA, ESB, wheat IPA, and porter, it feels natural to start with the new white-style tap and then move on to the regular offerings.
The food side also reflects the izakaya character that pairs well with beer. Gahaha Beer is known as a place that does seafood dishes and substantial snacks well, so matching those with the crisp drinking feel of a white-style beer should make it especially useful as a meal-time drink.
This post is less about a flashy event announcement and more about plainly introducing the beer currently available at the shop. Precisely because of that, it suits Gahaha Beer's style of enjoying the contrast between a regular beer's personality and a guest beer available only that day.
