Craft Beer Market Mitsukoshimae Branch Announces 30 Draft Craft Beers in Its 5/1 Update
Craft Beer Market Mitsukoshimae Branch has published its "beers of the day" updated on May 1. On the first floor of COREDO Muromachi 3, in a deconstructed kaiseki-style setting, it offers a wide selection of domestic and international draft craft beers, with half pours starting at 690 yen.
Hop BroToday, the "beers of the day" at Craft Beer Market Mitsukoshimae Branch are hot, with 30 draft beers on the board. It’s on the first floor of COREDO Muromachi 3, so it’s easy to drop by after work.
MugiWhoa! Thirty kinds!? That’s the kind of happy problem where you don’t know where to start.
Hop BroIf you want a good starting point, I’d go with the special slot, like Ano Kuma Bitter. It’s a Chichibu Beer pour, and the name alone is unforgettable, right?
MugiWhat is that! Does bitter mean it’s bitter? With a bear in the name too, it’s kind of scary, but now I’m curious...
Hop BroExactly. It’s the kind of beer where you enjoy the shape of the bitterness. And since this place lets you try it starting at 690 yen for a half pour, you can go on little beer adventures without hesitation.
MugiOhh! Then it sounds easy to compare everything from lagers to IPAs. I’d probably start with something like Asahi Maruef or Kirin Heartland.
Hop BroThat’s a good flow. Lagers go down clean, and then when you move on to a more aromatic IPA, the differences stand out more clearly. BREWDOG PUNK IPA and Shigakogen Beer IPA are especially easy to notice.
MugiI keep hearing about IPA, but it means hops are the star, right? I feel like there’s some kind of hop-king connection in the name, but is that related?
Hop BroIn a way, yes. The hop aroma and bitterness come to the front, so you get things like citrusy aromas or pine-like notes, and each brewery’s personality comes through more clearly.
MugiI see! Then gose and stout sound interesting too, and it seems fun to change the mood with something like Sankt Gallen Shonan Gold or Yamaguchi Jibeer Stout.
Hop BroExactly. Mitsukoshimae Branch also pairs well with Japanese-style dishes, so the more you drink, the more it makes sense to get a little lost in the choices. At this point, it makes me want the two of us to go pick our first glass already.
MugiYeah, I’m fully in the mood to drink now! Let’s start with a half pour for tasting, and if we like it, we can go for a regular pour or a pint.
