On its May 27 post, "Curry and Beer Tasogare Lily" in Minami Ward, Nagoya updated its tap list. The lineup featured West Coast Brewing and White Crow Brewing's "Double Kimchi," WCB's "The Technician," and WCB x Hop Butcher For The World's "No Ketchup," and the shop also announced it would be setting up at SOCIAL TOWER MARKET on May 31.
Hop BroThe tap update at Tasogare Lily in Nagoya's Minami Ward is seriously hot. In the May 27 post, three beers, including WCB collabs, lined up in a row.
MugiWhat? Three releases at once? That's basically a win already! A curry shop with a beer lineup this serious is way too intense!
Hop BroExactly, and the shop is a beer pub in Uchidabashi, Minami Ward, Nagoya, where spice curry and beer take center stage. Weekdays start lunch at 12:00, and weekends are open straight through from noon, so daytime drinking is easy.
MugiHuh? What is SOCIAL TOWER MARKET? That event name is suddenly so stylish my brain can't keep up!
Hop BroIt's the market they'll be appearing at on Sunday, May 31. And the previous day, Saturday the 30th, will be lunch service only for prep, so checking the dates matters.
MugiI see! Then the first thing I'm curious about is the beer itself, and Double Kimchi already has too much information just from the name!
Hop BroThis is West Coast Brewing × White Crow Brewing's West Coast Double IPA, at 8.5% ABV. With Citra CRYO, El Dorado, and Motueka, it really pushes the hop aroma and bitterness.
MugiCitra CRYO sounds like something from a lab...! Is CRYO hops some amazing frozen thing?
Hop BroRoughly speaking, it's a material that packs hop aroma compounds tightly together. That makes it easier to get dense aroma. And the next one, The Technician, is WCB's Funky Kettle Sour, at 5.5% ABV, with a nicely clean acidity.
MugiI love sour beers! Hearing it goes well with food makes me want to drink it with curry. Curry spices and acidity? That's definitely exciting!
Hop BroAnd to finish, there's WCB × Hop Butcher For The World's No Ketchup, a Hazy Double IPA at 7.5% ABV. It's perfect for hazy lovers, and paired with the shop's food, it's the kind of lineup that won't let you stop.
MugiYeah, this is definitely a daytime drinking lineup! I want to eat curry, follow the WCB collabs, and then wrap it up by getting fully satisfied with the hazy beer!
