Beer pub P-144×シトラバ in Higashi-Ikebukuro is featuring seven craft beers, ranging from a lemongrass-infused Spice Ale and stout to pale ale, session beers, and IPAs from Japan and overseas.
Hop BroFor a beer crawl in Ikebukuro, seven taps at P-144×Citraba are hard to miss. They range from spicy ales to rich stouts.
MugiWhoa, seven kinds! That’s an amazing range of flavors. Can a beginner choose one?
Hop BroAbsolutely. Shonan Beer’s Lemongrass Hopper is a 5% Spice Ale. Its fresh lemongrass aroma makes it an easy place to start.
MugiWhat’s a Spice Ale? Spices in beer? Is it going to be hot like curry?!
Hop BroIt’s more about aromatic character than heat. Lemongrass adds a bright, citrus-like fresh herbal note.
MugiOh, nice! That sounds great with their fresh pasta. And I’m curious about VERTERE’s Globa, the dark beer!
Hop BroGloba is a 7% stout from Tokyo’s VERTERE, with roasted-malt character: think coffee-like aromas and a deep, satisfying richness.
MugiCoffee-like aromas in beer?! Beer has so much going on! For something lighter, would UP!UP‼︎ be a good pick?
Hop BroExactly. It’s a 4.5% Session IPA collaboration with NOMCRAFT BREWING: hop aroma, but with an easy food-friendly body. COEDO’s Akane is another approachable pale ale.
MugiAnd for a bigger hit, Pizza Port’s Beach Crossing IPA and FLORA FERMENTATION’s West Coast IPA SIREN are both 7%. I really want to raise a glass in Ikebukuro!
