Beer pub Beer Stand Amber Rondo in Honcho, Aoba Ward, Sendai, will open at 4 p.m. from Tuesday, July 14 through Friday, July 17. The post highlights a GAME BREW keg along with Makikaze IPA, Joey XPA, SAGE, Lemon Lager, and other draft beers.
Hop BroSendai's Beer Stand Amber Rondo is going big: July 14 to 17 they open at 4 PM, and the draft lineup looks stacked.
MugiWhat! A 4 PM opening means I can start planning my first pint before my brain even clocks out!
Hop BroThe highlights are a GAME BREW keg tapping plus Maki Kaze IPA and Joey XPA, with SAGE and Lemon Lager rounding it out.
MugiWhoa, but what is XPA? Is that IPA's little cousin or some secret beer alphabet?
Hop BroXPA means Extra Pale Ale, and it's usually bright and citrusy without hitting as hard as some IPAs. Joey XPA is even framed as a recreation of a beer that made a big impression in Australia.
MugiNo way, so it's delicious with backstory too? That's unfair in the best way.
Hop BroAnd Faro's SAGE is a sage-driven tribute beer for Kanda Karakuri's 8th anniversary, nodding to Stillwater's Cellar Door Saison.
MugiHold on, what is saison? And sage is that herb, right? Beer just walked straight into a cooking show!
Hop BroSaison is a farmhouse style that often drinks peppery and crisp, so layering sage on top makes that homage angle really pop.
MugiOkay, now I'm torn: Lemon Lager for a refreshing start, or Maki Kaze IPA if I want a full hop shower right away.
Hop BroThen you add West Coast Brewing's anniversary keg with a HAZY Triple IPA, plus the suggestion to compare Cloudwater and WCB side by side in DIPA form. I want to book a spot already.
MugiThat's just rude at this point. I want to taste them one by one, and honestly both of us need to head to Amber Rondo immediately.
