Hop BroThe CRAFT BEER BAR in Kannai, Yokohama has a pretty aggressive tap list for March 31. Seven different Shiga Kogen beers lined up like that is exactly the kind of thing beer lovers can't resist.
MugiWhat, seven kinds!? At that point it's not "what should I drink today" anymore, it's a battle over "how many glasses can I have," right?
Hop BroExactly. The star of the day is Shiga Kogen Beer. DPA, Snow Monkey IPA, Miyama Blonde, Sono Ju Anniversary IPA, IPA, Africa Pale Ale, and Pils - what's interesting is that each one heads in a clearly different direction.
MugiDPA, what even is that! It sounds strong just from the name. And IPA and pils too - my brain is already foaming trying to figure out what's different!
Hop BroVery roughly speaking, IPA tends to bring hop aroma and bitterness to the front, while pils is the kind of beer that's clean and easy to drink. When you compare the drinking character of beers like Miyama Blonde, even the same brewery can show a completely different face.
MugiOhhh! So you can play around by comparing the hop character. And with blonde and pils in the mix, it feels approachable even for a beginner like me!
Hop BroThat's right. And this place opens at 4:00 p.m. on weekdays and from 2:00 p.m. on holidays. Last entry is 60 minutes before closing, and last order is 30 minutes before closing, so if you linger too long, the taps will shut before you do.
MugiWhoa, the deadline is surprisingly strict! So if I sprint there after work, I can still get a great drink in Kannai, right?
Hop BroYep, and like a proper beer pub, the fact that it also has good non-beer options is nice. Having choices like a slightly strong highball or a Tokunoshima tankan sour is great when you want a change of pace.
MugiBut today I still want to go straight for the taps! If you're putting seven Shiga Kogen beers on at once, the only option is to go on a tasting journey!
Hop BroExactly. In the calm of early spring, that steady, unhurried service in Kannai is pretty cool too. Come on, let's each start with our first glass tonight.
MugiIt's settled! This is exactly the kind of article that makes you want to drink. Shiga Kogen Beer in Kannai - I'm fully in the mood to go already!
At CRAFT BEER BAR in Ota-cho, Naka Ward, Yokohama, the tap list for Tuesday, March 31 was announced. According to a post by the owner, the bar will be open that day after a temporary closure. Hours are 4:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. on weekdays and 2:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. on holidays, with last entry 60 minutes before closing and last order 30 minutes before closing.
The star of the day is the Shiga Kogen Beer lineup. The beers listed were DPA, Snow Monkey IPA, Miyama Blonde, Sono Ju Anniversary IPA, IPA, Africa Pale Ale, and Pils, for a total of seven. It is a lineup that lets a wide range of drinkers choose, from those who want to enjoy a classic hop-forward character to those who want to compare how the blonde and pils styles differ in taste.
As a beer pub, it also offers drinks beyond craft beer, including a "slightly strong highball," a "Tokunoshima tankan sour," a "single malt highball," and "NEW ENGI first-press unfiltered sake." The appeal of the place is that, while beer remains the focus, you can still choose a drink to match your mood.
In the article, the owner also writes about having reset their mindset after selling a car and finishing a major decluttering effort. Even in the unsettled early-spring atmosphere, the bar's straightforward style of steadily filling glasses as a Kannai beer bar does not change. Anyone who wants to drink a range of Shiga Kogen beers should stop by while the taps are still running.
