The beer pub NEIGHBOR in Nogata, Nakano Ward, has posted today’s tap list on Instagram. Featuring FLORA FERMENTATION × NUDE’s "Tayu," the lineup spans eight beers from pilsner and dunkel to hazy IPA, sour, and red IPA, making it a setup that pairs well with food.
Hop BroNEIGHBOR in Nakano Ward has updated its 8-tap lineup. Today it opens at 12:00, and whether you want to start light or go in with food in mind, it’s a pretty hard lineup to choose from.
MugiWait, eight kinds on tap? Just looking at the menu is enough to make my brain start foaming!
Hop BroThe one to watch first is FLORA FERMENTATION × KYOTO NUDE BREWERY’s Tayu. It’s a porter made with soba, so you can enjoy a toasty aroma and gentle roasted character.
MugiSoba? Like, that soba? Wait, hearing porter with soba makes me feel like I’ve been sucked into a noodle shop!
Hop BroExactly. In broad terms, think of it as a dark, rich beer with a roasted aroma from the soba layered on top. And it’s excellent with food, without being too heavy, which makes it easy to drink.
MugiOhh! So I can start with something light, then. Pilsner and pale ale sound like beers I can drink without worrying!
Hop BroExactly. GAME BREW × maroyaka’s "The Beer" is a Cold Pale Ale, and Beppu Brewery’s "Yuagari Pils" is a pilsner, so they’re perfect as first beers to start with.
MugiBut wait, there’s Shiga Kogen’s SNOW MONKEY IPA, and even a lime-curd sour? Isn’t the direction here total traffic jam chaos!?
Hop BroThat’s what makes it fun. They’ve got Gangi Brewing’s dunkel, Bighand Bros. Beer’s sour, DD4D’s chili IPA, and BURNT MILL’s red IPA too, so the range is huge.
MugiAnd the food is steak, jerk chicken rice, and a bunch of burgers too? Amazing. It feels like a place built to pair with grilled food!
Hop BroExactly. Since you can eat and drink well near Nogata Station, today would be fun either going hard with IPAs and finishing strong, or slipping in a distinctive beer like Tayu.
MugiI’ve decided. I’m going to do Tayu as my first beer and a second one after that! Hop-nii, let’s go drink together today and do a field survey of the tap list!
