Grau Craft beer bar taps Kanpai! 'Dangosaka Imperial Stout 2026'
At Grau Craft beer bar in Fujimino, Saitama, Kanpai! Brewing’s 7th-anniversary beer, 'Dangosaka Imperial Stout 2026,' is now on tap. Three additional beers from BREWCCOLY, BLACK TIDE, and Mugi Zakkoku Kobo are also scheduled to join the lineup this weekend, with a vanilla-ice-cream pairing suggested for the stout.
Hop BroMugi, Grau Craft beer bar in Fujimino just put Dangozaka Imperial Stout 2026 on tap. It is a 7th anniversary beer for Kanpai! Brewing, so this one really stands out.
MugiWhoa! A 7th anniversary brew already sounds like a party in a glass! And "imperial stout" sounds kind of intense...!
Hop BroIt is definitely a rich one. The roasted malt depth leads the way, with aromas like bitter chocolate and dark-roast coffee, plus a clean, firm bitterness.
MugiWait, what is roasted malt supposed to mean?! You just flipped into brewer mode, and now my brain feels like it is getting toasted too!
Hop BroPut simply, it is like deeply toasted grain. Roasting the malt brings out coffee- and cacao-like aromas, which gives stout that dark color and layered flavor.
MugiOhh, so it is not just bitter, it also has chocolaty roast notes. That suddenly sounds like a winter dessert I would absolutely order.
Hop BroAnd the bar has a great suggestion: pair it with vanilla ice cream. The stout's bitterness meets sweetness and chill, and it turns into a full dessert experience.
MugiWhat?! That is basically a grown-up affogato! I can already see myself charging into the beer pub with a spoon in hand!
Hop BroThe current tap list is strong too. BREWCCOLY's Low-Head system, BLACK TIDE's Hazy Wave Spectrum, and Mugi Zakkoku Kobo's IRODORI Saison UME make it a serious tasting lineup.
MugiHold on, what even is Low-Head system?! That sounds less like an IPA and more like a beer brewed in a secret laboratory!
Hop BroIPA is a hop-forward style, Hazy means cloudy and juicy, and DDH means extra hops were added generously. And this weekend there will be three more fresh taps: Teppozaka IPA, Naemazaka Blueberry Sour, and Kiln Ash.
MugiWow, weekend at Grau sounds dangerously tempting! Finish with Dangozaka Imperial Stout 2026 over ice cream, and I am fully ready to raise a glass.
