Hop BroIn the basement in Akasaka-Mitsuke, Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke updated its tap list for May 1. Today’s star is a new three-way collaboration, and they are really going all in.
MugiWait, it’s that lively on the basement floor!? And 31 taps? That’s way beyond a beer vending machine!
Hop BroExactly. And the new tap is 102×69 Roggen Roll, subtitled Rye Helles. It’s a joint creation by Yatsugatake Beer TOUCHDOWN, Craft Beer Scissors Akihabara, and Craft Beer Server Land, layering the clean feel of a rye helles with the character of rye.
MugiRoggen? What even is that! It suddenly sounds like a spell, but what kind of beer is a Rye Helles anyway?
Hop BroA Rye Helles is basically a helles with a rye element added, so it drinks lightly and smoothly. Then the roggen, meaning rye’s toasty aroma, rides on top of that, giving it more character than you’d expect from the look alone.
MugiOhhh! So you can drink it easily at first, and then the personality catches up later. That sounds perfect for a tasting flight and super fun!
Hop BroAnd what’s especially interesting about today is how the Japanese craft beers are lined up all together. For example, Edelpils, Reihourou Beer’s Japanese Tea Red Lager, and FLORA FERMENTATION’s Cascara / Dunkel w/ Coffee Cherry show just how broad the selection is.
MugiHold on, hold on, tea lager and a dunkel with coffee cherry? That is way too much information! It’s less like a beer shelf and more like a science fair exhibit!
Hop BroThere’s even more: Swan Lake Beer’s Amber ale, Gujo Hachiman Beer Kobokobo’s Yuzu Ale and Cream Ale, Y.Market Brewing’s Hysteric IPA, and Himitsu Beer’s Mabudachi Saison. It really feels like a riot of styles.
MugiWow, starting with a light lager and finishing with an IPA or something dark sounds amazing, doesn’t it? Today both of us are going to want to go all in from the first glass!
