Three NOMCRAFT beers arrive at El Hori in Kameari
El Hori, the Kameari beer pub serving Japanese craft beer and tacos, has added three beers from NOMCRAFT Brewing in Aridagawa, Wakayama. The lineup spans an IPL, a sour IPA, and a single-hop hazy IPA.
Hop BroKameari just got a nice new drop: at Kokusan Craft Beer & Tacos El Hori, Nomcraft Brewing from Aridagawa, Wakayama sent over three fresh pours.
MugiWhat! A taco spot bringing in that much serious craft beer? That sounds like perfect pairing energy!
Hop BroThe lineup is sharp too: Emulator is an IPL, 7th Revolution is a Sour IPA, and Soloist Azacca is a single-hop Hazy IPA, so it is basically three personalities at once.
MugiHold on, what is IPL? Is it IPA's cousin? Lager's neighbor? I am in alphabet traffic jam mode here!
Hop BroIPL means India Pale Lager. Think lager crispness with hop aroma and bitterness layered on top. Emulator is crisp but punchy, the kind that makes you want another sip immediately.
MugiOooh, that sounds perfect for the first glass! And it is a Beer Bomb and Citraba collab too? That is strong resume material!
Hop BroExactly. Then 7th Revolution was brewed for Nomcraft's seventh anniversary, and as a Sour IPA it brings sharp acidic snap in a really fun way.
MugiA Sour IPA sounds like the refreshing one suddenly turned dramatic! And what is single-hop, some kind of hop solo concert?
Hop BroThat is honestly not far off. Single-hop means one hop variety carries the whole expression, and Soloist Azacca is a juicy hazy showcase for Azacca.
MugiWhen you say the expression of Azacca, I start picturing hops as actors... With tacos, this could become a festival in my mouth!
Hop BroThat is exactly El Hori's strength. You can casually drop by in Kameari, grab tacos, and compare all three beers, which makes it a tonight plan for me.
MugiI am with you! Start with Emulator, get surprised by 7th Revolution, then melt into Soloist Azacca... that is a three-glass mission now!
Tokyo's Kameari beer pub, El Hori (`国産クラフトビールとタコス エルホリ`), has brought in three beers from NOMCRAFT Brewing in Aridagawa, Wakayama. In the post, the pub describes them as staff favorites, with the lineup shown left to right as `Emulator` (IPL), `7th Revolution` (Sour IPA), and `Soloist Azacca` (Single-Hop Hazy IPA).
`Emulator` is presented as a collaboration beer with Beer Bomb and Citra Bar, and the description highlights its lager-like brightness together with a firm bitterness. That makes it an easy first pour, but still one with enough hop character to keep things interesting. `7th Revolution` is NOMCRAFT's 7th-anniversary sour IPA, aimed at drinkers who want a sharper, tart profile. `Soloist Azacca` is the newest beer in NOMCRAFT's Soloist series, built around the Azacca hop and the brewery's single-hop approach.
El Hori is a beer pub where craft beer and tacos share the same table. For beer fans in Kameari, the appeal here is not just the pairing with food, but the chance to compare three very different Japanese craft beers in one visit. If you follow limited releases and hop-driven styles, this is a lineup worth noting.
