Hop BroSOUL BIRD in Hamamatsucho updated its taps on March 18 with three new kegs tapped!
MugiWait, so SOUL BIRD is serving a total of nine beers?! That's the kind of lineup that leaves you totally lost!
Hop BroThe highlight this time is a three-beer core lineup: Sorachi Pilsner from TAISETSU BEER, Coffee Smoky Hazy IPA from SETOUCHI BEER, and Pale Ale from Yamaguchi Jibeer.
MugiWhat is that! The Sorachi Ace Hop mentioned in the Sorachi Pilsner description sounds like the name of a special move!
Hop BroSorachi Ace is a hop that gives off herbal and lemongrass-like notes, so just remember it as a refreshing-style pilsner.
MugiOhhh! So does the lightly roasted coffee character in the Coffee Smoky Hazy IPA make it less bitter?
Hop BroIt layers tropical aromas, coffee nuances, and gentle smokiness, so it's actually a layered hazy that's surprisingly easy to drink.
MugiIf the Pale Ale is malty with citrus aroma, then it's the food-friendly safe pick!
Hop BroAnd with beers like WIZARDBORN NOIR and Kiri no Tabibito, the lineup ranges from light pilsners all the way to imperial stout territory, so the spread is wild.
MugiNo wonder the tables are full! SOUL BIRD at 1-20-5 Hamamatsucho means tonight is basically a tasting session for sure!
Minato Ward’s Hamamatsucho-based Cafe & CraftBeer Dining SOUL BIRD updated its tap list to match business on March 18. In the post, it highlighted three new beers up front as "three cool new kegs tapped." The lineup also includes a few beers with only a little left, making it a fun selection for side-by-side tasting.
The three new taps this time are the following:
- Sorachi Pilsner (TAISETSU BEER)
A pilsner characterized by herbal notes and a lemongrass-like aroma derived from Sorachi Ace hops.
- Coffee Smoky Hazy IPA (SETOUCHI BEER)
A beer where tropical impressions layer with nuances of lightly roasted coffee and gentle smokiness.
- Pale Ale (Yamaguchi Jibeer)
A classic style with a good balance of maltiness and citrus aroma, making it easy to pair with food.
Other beers on tap include WIZARDBORN NOIR (TAROS BREWING), Mikaze WHEAT (ISHINOMAKI HOP WORKS), Kiri no Tabibito -Voyageur des Brumes- (Dieu Du Ciel!), Strata Dust (Barebottle), Develop Mishima 7 (fete Mishima Brewery), and Twine Climber (Varietal Beer), creating a lineup centered on Japanese breweries with North American breweries mixed in.
On that day, the restaurant announced that the table seating inside was fully reserved, showing how much attention it was drawing. True to the beer-pub style, SOUL BIRD’s appeal lies in its wide range, from light pilsners to hazy IPAs and imperial stouts. For a night in the Hamamatsucho area when you want to really drink craft beer, this is a place worth keeping in mind.
