At Beer Pub Ishii in Sendagi, Tokyo, the tap list has been updated to start with four beers. On tap are Kanpai! Brewing's dark mild, a hoppy beer from Let's Beer Works, a seasonal beer from Hopkotan Brewing, and a porter from Shiga Kogen Beer.
Hop BroAt Beer Pub Ishii in Sendagi, the tap list has been updated to kick off with four beers. Seeing Kanpai! Brewing, Let's Beer Works, Hopkotan Brewing, and Shiga Kogen Beer all lined up at once is pretty impressive.
MugiWait, four right away!? The names alone are intense, and I can't even decide what to drink first!
Hop BroThe first one that catches your eye is Kanpai! Brewing's Gekizaka Dark Mild Ale. A dark mild is a style that's dark-looking but light on its feet, letting you enjoy roasted aromas in a gentle way.
MugiDark and mild sounds a little contradictory, doesn't it? Is it strong or gentle, which is it?
Hop BroThat's what makes it interesting. It looks substantial, but drinks smoothly. Next, Let's Beer Works' HOPPY HUE puts hop character front and center, and as the name suggests, its aromatic lift is the kind that puts you in a better mood.
MugiSo hop character means the aroma just bursts out, right? It sounds like the kind of thing that would get you hyped after one sip!
Hop BroExactly. And it's great that Hopkotan Brewing's Umemi-gachi is in the mix too. Seasonal beers feel like they bring the atmosphere of that time of year right into the glass.
MugiWow, that's like drinking the season. Just hearing 'plum' makes it feel a little springlike and kind of sentimental.
Hop BroAnd it's no accident that Shiga Kogen Beer's Porter closes it out. It's dark but not too heavy, with coffee-like roast and a pleasant bitterness, so it's perfect as a last drink.
MugiFrom hoppy styles to dark beer, that's a huge range! Today's a roller coaster of flavors!
Hop BroThat's exactly the fun of it, and Beer Pub Ishii is the kind of place where the joy comes from drinking through the lineup and switching gears. It's open Wednesday through Saturday from 5:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m., and on Sundays from 3:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., so it's easy to drop by after work.
MugiAll right, tonight's one stop in Sendagi is decided! I'll start light and finish with the porter!
