Canal brewing in Oimachi taps Egret Brewery anniversary ale and seven others
Canal brewing in Tokyo’s Oimachi area has updated its tap list. The lineup includes the brewery’s own "C" alongside beers from CAMADO BREWERY, Nara Brewing, Shizuoka Brewing, NOMCRAFT Brewing, and Egret Brewery’s anniversary release.
Hop BroThe new Canal brewing tap update in Oimachi is a strong one, with eight beers covering a lot of ground.
MugiEight taps? That lineup sounds like the kind of menu that makes me freeze at the bar. What's the headline beer?
Hop BroThe first one to watch is Egret Brewery's fourth anniversary beer, Anniversary Four. It's an English Pale Ale, so I'm expecting something balanced and quietly flavorful.
MugiOooh, an anniversary beer already sounds like a celebration. Is it one of those super bitter victory laps?
Hop BroOn top of that, NOMCRAFT Brewing has Porter -Nitro Ver- on deck. The article highlights chocolate-like notes and a creamy texture, which is hard to ignore.
MugiWait, a nitro pour? That sounds less like beer and more like a science fair button.
Hop BroHonestly, it kind of is. Served with nitrogen gas, the bubbles get finer and the mouthfeel turns soft and velvety.
MugiOkay, then what is SAISON w/GREEN TEA supposed to mean? This tap list is starting to cast spells at me.
Hop BroSaison is a lighter, aromatic style. So Nara Brewing's EIGHTY EIGHT brings tea character, Shizuoka Brewing's yuzu pils adds citrus, and alongside Pony Boy and CAMADO's West Coast IPA, you get light to rich all in one lineup.
MugiI still can't get over Rite of Ignition as a beer name. Do I need to chant before ordering?
Hop BroNo chanting required. Along with Canal's IPA C, there's also the Canal x CAMADO Scottish Ale try, so house beer, collab, and guests all land in one standing bar setup. That's exactly the kind of place I'd drop into tonight.
MugiThen I'm in. Yuzu pils first, Anniversary Four next, and the nitro porter to finish is exactly my route.
