Hop BroCraft beer kitchen Kokoro no Tsuki in Miyakawacho, Yokohama has a hot tap list for March 28. It starts with Chuckanut Brewery's "Bock," and six beers line up nicely.
MugiWhoa, six taps sounds like so much fun! But "Bock" sounds strong. What kind of flavor is it?
Hop BroBock is all about a solid malt character. The sweetness and toasty notes of the malt come to the front, so when you drink it, you're like, "Ah, that's barley."
MugiWhat? Malt character means it tastes like barley? You just threw a super-sophisticated word at me and shocked me!
Hop BroBasically, yes. Today also has Nara Brewing's "Under Water," Hop Kotan Brewing's "Seiran" and "Fiction," Repubrew's "Flash Hop IPA," and Georgetown Brewing's "Johnny Utah," so you can really enjoy the differences in drinking profile.
MugiHuh! Just the name "Flash Hop IPA" sounds like the hops are going wild! But isn't IPA just bitter?
Hop BroThat's what makes it interesting. IPA isn't just about bitterness; it's also a beer for seeing the outline of the hops. Citrus-like notes, grassy notes, and the way the aroma rises all come through clearly, so the differences between brands are fun.
MugiI see! So something like "Johnny Utah" or "Under Water" would be easy to pair with food.
Hop BroExactly. Kokoro no Tsuki's big draw is its strong Chinese snack menu, with braised pork belly, shumai, sweet and sour pork, mapo tofu, and drool-worthy wontons. It's the perfect loop: drink beer, then keep drinking through the food.
MugiI'm getting hungry! I really like that you can build it properly from the first drink all the way to the meal. Today makes me want to toast in Yokohama's Noge!

Pairing with food

For example, there were dishes such as braised pork belly, potato salad with century egg and makrut lime, shumai, chunky square-style sweet and sour pork, mapo tofu, Shanghai-style fried noodles, and drool-worthy wontons, all of which pair well with beer. The setup, which lets craft beer take center stage while the dishes keep the drinks flowing, can be said to be a signature strength of Kokoro no Tsuki.
