P-144 x Citraba in Ikebukuro to host a burger and American beer event
P-144 x Citraba, a beer pub in Higashi-Ikebukuro, will host a three-day burger-and-American-beer event from June 12 to 14. The menu pairs three original Citra burgers with eight American beers, and the June 11 post also revealed six beers currently on tap.
Hop BroIkebukuro is about to get interesting: P-144×Citraba is putting on a burger event with eight American beers from June 12 to 14.
MugiWhat! A three-day-only event like that? Burgers with American craft beer is exactly how my weekend self loses all self-control!
Hop BroAnd there are three original Citra burgers, built on buns made by La Vigne Akiko. It starts at 5:00 PM on June 12, then 2:00 PM on the 13th and 14th.
MugiWhoa! But what does tap lineup revealed even mean? And SIPA sounds like some secret organization, not a beer style!
Hop BroA tap lineup is just the draft list for that day, and SIPA means Session IPA shorthand. Think Chichibu Beer's 'Kuma to Kabosu no SIPA': lower alcohol, but still plenty of aroma.
MugiOhhh, got it! So if it runs from a Coffee Amber Ale at 9.0% down to a 4.7% lager, both food-first people and slow sippers can have fun.
Hop BroThat range is the point. Even the six beers shown on Instagram on June 11 included Ushitora's 'Cho, Latte yo!', Chichibu's SIPA, T.Y.HARBOR IPA, Revo's Sunny Side Hazy IPA, KCBC, and 2SP's Big Hug, so hop nerds could absolutely get lost.
MugiHold on, what is Cold IPA? Is that just IPA straight out of an arctic refrigerator? My brain already feels chilled.
Hop BroClose, but it's more about process and texture: think a snappy IPA. And the limited focaccia uses lemon peel plus a ton of basil, so the whole event is built around citrusy pairings.
MugiOkay, now Higashi-Ikebukuro 1-4-4 suddenly sounds like a pilgrimage site. A burger in one hand and a tasting run in the other? My stomach and hype are synchronized.
Hop BroThat route makes sense. I want to pair a Citra burger and Hazy, then finish with a Cold IPA.
MugiThen it's settled! June 12 to 14 means cheers in Ikebukuro, because now I want both the burgers and the beer at full speed!
