The beer pub Awashima Soko in Daizawa, Setagaya Ward updated its tap list in an Instagram post on June 1. Passific Brewing's "Passific IPA" is newly tapped, and a total of five beers are on the lineup, including Nara Brewing, YOROCCO, and Kyoto Brewing.
Hop BroToday it's about Awashima Soko updating its taps in Setagaya's Daizawa, with a new arrival from Passific Brewing.
MugiReally? Is the newly tapped star such a noteworthy pint?
Hop BroExactly. Passific IPA is a juicy flagship IPA with fruitiness, a pleasant bitterness, and a moderate body.
MugiJuicy... does that mean it feels like fruit juice-like flavor even though it's beer?
Hop BroBasically, it means the hop aroma comes across as tropical and bright. The finish isn't too heavy, but it doesn't feel thin either, which is the nice part.
MugiWow! And there are five taps in total today, so it sounds fun to choose!
Hop BroThe lineup is strong too. Nara Brewing's Hoppy Pilsner, YOROCCO's Golden Ale and Dry Stout, Kyoto Brewing's Hazy IPA, and Passific IPA.
MugiFrom hoppy pilsner to hazy IPA! Being able to plan the first pint is so nice!
Hop BroSince it spans from light styles to fuller ones, it's easy to plan the order you drink them in. The shop's guidance is thorough too, and it's nice that they open early on Saturdays and on Sundays and holidays, in addition to weekdays from 6 p.m.
MugiIt seems perfect for a quiet drink! I kind of love the idea of a small group, taking it slow.
Hop BroThen let's start at Awashima Soko with an IPA full of fruitiness, and finish with the stout tonight.
