At BEER PUB BRICK LANE in Nagoya's Nishiki district, Totopia Brewery's tap list has changed. The Instagram post title even mentions "a rare sunny weekend" and "a beer day," conveying a mood of enjoying beer in step with the spring weather.

The Totopia Brewery beers currently visible at the bar are Sirenphobia, Trapphobia, Boxphobia, Quartzphobia, Keyphobia, Nyxphobia, Nullphobia, and Duskphobia. The styles are wide-ranging as well: Sirenphobia is an imperial double-style Hazy, Trapphobia and Duskphobia are DDH Hazy Pale Ales, Boxphobia and Quartzphobia are West Coast DIPAs, Keyphobia is a DDH Hazy IPA, Nullphobia is a West Coast Lager, and Nyxphobia is an imperial stout made with toasted coconut and marshmallow. It is a lineup that makes it easy to compare the different directions a single brewery can take.

BRICK LANE is a beer pub in Nishiki 1-chome, Nagoya, in a location that is easy to stop by both after work and for daytime weekend drinking. It pairs well with slowly tracking the differences one pint at a time at the counter or comparing several beers at a table, and the tap takeover itself is part of the fun. When a brewery like Totopia offers everything from Hazy richness to lager crispness and stout depth, the pleasure of choosing a beer to match your mood becomes especially clear. It is the kind of lineup you would want to linger over with a glass on a sunny weekend.
