Hop BroThe tap list for April 8 at The Cat & Cask Tavern in Kanamecho is seriously impressive.
MugiWow! Just the fact that it gives off an English pub vibe in Kanamecho already makes me want a drink!
Hop BroThis is a strong domestic-craft lineup: Shiga Kogen IPA, Matsumoto Brewery's 'Awesome! Pale Ale,' and two IPAs from Minoh Beer.
MugiWhat? There are that many kinds of IPA? The names alone already sound kind of intense!
Hop BroIPA is all about hop aroma and bitterness. Shiga Kogen IPA is one of the classic examples, while pale ale is a little lighter and easier to drink.
MugiOhh, so it's one of those tastings where comparing them is the fun part. I want to work my way through them one by one!
Hop BroAnd Minoh Beer's 'Rockin' Osaru IPA' is a limited 8.5% release, so it's nice to see them bringing a little more punch.
Mugi8.5%? That monkey is way too energetic! The gap between the cute name and what's inside is huge!
Hop BroPlus, the shop's character really comes through with its weekly Wednesday one-cask real ale, this time Minoh Beer's 'Session Black IPA Real Ale.'
MugiI wonder what real ale is. Is it a beer with that hand-crafted feel? I don't totally get it, but I'm curious!
Hop BroExactly. It's gently poured with a hand pump, keeping the carbonation low so you can enjoy the aroma and how the temperature changes. It suits slow drinking in a quiet interior.
MugiNice, it feels like they're betting on the warmth of the cask rather than flashy effects. That kind of trustworthiness is great!
Hop BroThey're open Wednesday through Saturday from 18:00 to 22:00, so if you want to take your time drinking domestic craft in Kanamecho, this is a solid candidate for tonight.
MugiYeah, I definitely want to go! I'd start with Shiga Kogen IPA, and finishing with the real ale would be perfect!
