Hop BroGambrinus, a beer cafe in Kokubunji, has posted its September 24 tap list with eight distinctive beers!
MugiWhoa, from barrel-aged sour to hazy IPA? That is an amazing range for one tap list!
Hop BroFirst up is Far Yeast Brewing's Off Trail Gimme Those Fairy Wings, a barrel-aged sour ale with mixed berries and Morello cherries.
MugiBarrel-aged means the beer takes a nap in a barrel? That sounds like beer bedtime!
Hop BroPretty close. It rests in wooden barrels, layering fruit acidity with complex barrel character. The result is more depth of flavor.
MugiNice! Then DD4D BREWING's ALTERING, a light golden ale, sounds like a safe place to start.
Hop BroGreat call. Hanjirou Beer’s Mango & Lime Sour is also fun: a fruited gose bursting with mango and bright lime.
Mugi“Gose” suddenly sounds like a spell! What kind of beer is that?
Hop BroIt’s a German-inspired style with tartness and sometimes a hint of salt. Here, mango aroma and zesty lime lead the way—a summery sour kick.
MugiThen RIO BREWING’s SOCIAL GRAVITY is an 8.5% DDH hazy double IPA? I might get tipsy from the number alone!
Hop BroDDH means double dry-hopped: hops are added after fermentation for big aroma without simply making it bitter. BLACK TIDE BREWING’s Hazy Wave Spectrum uses three types of Citra for citrus and dank notes.
MugiI want to try Totopia Brewing’s Ripplephobia and WEST COAST BREWING’s Cloud 7 too—and check what’s being tapped soon. Let’s head to Kokubunji for a tasting flight today!
