New Japanese and International Beers Tap at Beer Bar Festa Shimokitazawa
Beer Bar Festa Shimokitazawa has announced its draft lineup for September 20, featuring new pours from Nito Brewery and Minoh Beer alongside a broad selection of Japanese and international craft beers.
Hop BroBeer Bar Festa Shimokitazawa is pouring 12 distinctive beers on tap on September 20. It is about a two-minute walk from the station and opens at 6 p.m.
MugiTwelve beers!? What is this new Nito Brewing release like?
Hop BroOne highlight is Nito Brewing's Weizen with Apple Cinnamon. It layers apple and cinnamon aromas onto the soft texture that comes from wheat malt.
MugiWhat even is a weizen!? It feels like a surprise German quiz just started!
Hop BroSimply put, it is a beer made with plenty of wheat. That often gives it a soft, rounded mouthfeel, which works beautifully with fruit and spice.
MugiOhhh! So could it feel like apple pie? Is this an autumn snack in a glass?
Hop BroClose, but it is not necessarily dessert-sweet. Another fresh keg is Minoh Beer’s Peach Weizen, likely bringing bright peach character alongside classic beer flavor.
MugiThere is peach too!? This is a fruit flavor showdown: Team Apple versus Team Peach!
Hop BroFor people chasing bitterness and hop aroma, there is Minoh’s Weisse IPA, Repubrew’s Black Jack IPA, and BrewDog Double IPA.
MugiSo many IPAs, my brain is a hop field! But is there something easy to sip too?
Hop BroAbsolutely. Minoh’s Papa Zaru Lager and Heartland are easygoing starts; overseas choices also include Coronado Hazy Weekend and Sierra Nevada Pale Ale.
MugiHouse-made sausages, beef tendon beer stew, and darts too? I can already feel the one-beer plan collapsing!
Hop BroThey plan to stay open until 4 a.m. during Silver Week, though weather may change hours—so check ahead, then let’s compare apple and peach.
MugiDeal! Peach first, apple cinnamon next… actually, both at once! Let’s toast in Shimokitazawa!
