NEIGHBOR in Nogata posts an 8-beer tap list featuring VERTERE and DD4D
NEIGHBOR, a beer pub in Nogata, Tokyo, has shared its latest tap list on Instagram. The lineup spans eight beers, led by the NEIGHBOR x VERTERE collab Pyracantha, and covers sour, IPA, stout, and amber ale styles that pair well with food.
Hop BroNEIGHBOR in Nogata just posted an eight-beer tap list, and with names like VERTERE and DD4D on it, the lineup is seriously stacked.
MugiWait, eight taps at once? In one beer pub? I'd walk in and instantly forget how choosing works!
Hop BroThe headliner is NEIGHBOR x VERTERE's Pyracantha collab beer, an NZ Pale Ale. It's bright, aromatic, and exactly the kind of pour you want first.
MugiHold on, New Zealand style pale ale? The second a country name shows up, I feel like I'm getting a geography quiz!
Hop BroPretty much. NZ hops often throw a white grape aroma, so it comes off juicy and fresh without getting too aggressive.
MugiOoh! Then GAME BREW's fruit sour ale, FEEL SO FREE, is on the crisp-and-refreshing team too, right?
Hop BroExactly, and then ASOBI BEER's kakikaki stout swings in with the total opposite mood. It's a cacao milk stout, basically the dessert specialist of the whole list.
MugiWhat even is a dessert specialist beer? That's too strong! And DD4D's Time After Thyme says Citrus and Spice IPA, which sounds like a very expensive seasoning aisle.
Hop BroThat one's a spiced citrus IPA, layered and aromatic. Then HOT BLOOD IPA goes full West Coast, while CRACKIN' brings orange peel, so even the IPA side has real range.
MugiAnd the food menu has corn risotto on it plus squid and green chili peperoncino, right? My stomach just called an emergency meeting.
Hop BroAt NEIGHBOR, that meeting ends fast. With grill dishes on the side, you'd want to keep going through Bauer the rye weizen and MELT the Belgian amber too.
MugiThat's it, we're going. I want pairing beer and plates in Nogata, starting with Pyracantha and finishing on the stout!
