Hop BroBEER HUNTING URAWA in Kita-Urawa has released the tap list for May 9. With U.B.P BREWERY at the core, it is a lineup that makes tasting side by side especially fun.
MugiWow! A lineup that makes side-by-side tasting fun sounds like exactly the kind of place I want to go to! And being able to drink slowly in Kita-Urawa is a big plus.
Hop BroThe highlight is the two real ales poured with a handpump. Having the imperial stout La Bomba and the bitter URAWA CITY ALE together is pretty classy.
MugiReal ale, what even is that! What makes it different when you pour it with a handpump? That suddenly feels super artisanal!
Hop BroIn simple terms, it's a way of pouring that uses air gently. Rather than being pushed out forcefully by carbon dioxide, it tends to bring out aroma and mouthfeel in a softer way.
MugiI see! If you drink something like La Bomba as an imperial stout, that richness is going to stand out even more!
Hop BroAnd on top of that, their own three Urawa originals are on the list too: Kick Off Pils, Woohoo!, and OWN GOAL IPA. That really gives the lineup a strong local identity.
MugiWhat is with those names, they are already fun! Kick Off Pils is basically something I want to drink before a match!
Hop BroThe guest casks are impressive too, with Shiga Kogen Beer's from scratch, SNOW MONKEY IPA 2026, and even Zoku Oni ni Kanabo IPA from Oni Densetsu.
MugiThere are so many options it is hard to choose, but I love having that range to match my mood! If there are fruit styles and IPAs, I can try something adventurous today.
Hop BroThey also have food like shumai and steamed shrimp tom yum salad, so it is great that there is a proper dish that pairs well with beer. This is definitely the kind of night that makes both me and Mugi-chan want to go out for drinks.
MugiYeah, tonight's drink is settled! From real ale to guest casks, everything sounds tempting, so I want to bar-hop my way through it!
