Three Draft Beers, Including Yamaguchi Jibeer's "Yamaguchi no Mugi," Tapped at taki in Shibuya
At the beer pub "taki" in Sakuraoka-cho, Shibuya, guest beer information for Tuesday, April 14 was released. Newly tapped are three draft beers, including Yamaguchi Jibeer's "Yamaguchi no Mugi," and they can be enjoyed during weekday business hours from 17:00 to 24:00.
Hop BroThe guest beers at taki in Shibuya are especially good today. The star is Yamaguchi Jibeer's "Yamaguchi no Mugi", and it's exactly the kind of lineup that makes sense for stopping by after work.
MugiReally? You can drink that in Shibuya? Weekday 17:00 to 24:00 is way too tempting on the way home!
Hop BroAnd since "Yamaguchi no Mugi" is a Pilsner, it looks light at first glance, but the malt is still the real star inside.
MugiPilsner? That's the one that sounds kind of light, right? When you say lager-like outline, it suddenly sounds cool and I still don't get it!
Hop BroIn simple terms, it's the kind you can drink cold and crisp, without hiding behind extra aroma. This one is made with Yamaguchi-grown barley called Sachiho Golden and domestic IBUKI hops.
MugiI see, so it's one where you can really taste the malt. Then the IBUKI hop character is probably kept pretty restrained too, right?
Hop BroExactly. Rather than making it boldly aromatic, it leans toward balancing the malt sweetness and bitterness. With IBU 25, it should go down smoothly with a moderate bitterness.
MugiNice! And today there are three draft beers, right? If I do a side-by-side tasting, my palate might actually level up a little!
Hop BroThe Tap List is interesting too, with Onmenbroi and Rising Sun Pale Ale on it. It is fun to follow the differences in lightness, collaboration character, and aroma all at once.
MugiWhoa, that's the kind of lineup that makes you want to try them in order from the first glass! It's already convenient just being a beer pub near Shibuya Station, but having content this strong too is almost unfair!
Hop BroAt this point, tonight is the night to go to taki and confirm the satisfying malt presence for yourself. It's a lineup that makes you want one drink, or honestly two, after work.
MugiYeah, my throat is already waiting for a pilsner! I already want to toast properly with the first drink tonight!
