Niigata's ...04&Beer taps Plank's Heller Weizenbock, with Shiga Kogen IPA and Minoh Stout also on tap
The beer pub ...04&Beer on Nishibori-maedori in Niigata City, Chuo Ward, has refreshed its tap list. From Plank Brewery's Heller Weizenbock to Shiga Kogen Beer's SNOW MONKEY IPA and Minoh Beer’s STOUT, the lineup brings together a range of distinctive beers.
Hop BroNiigata's beer pub tap refresh is heating up. At ...04&Beer, Plank Brewery's Heller Weizenbock has been tapped, and they've got Shiga Kogen IPA and Minoh Stout on the board too.
MugiWhoa, Heller Weizenbock? That sounds strong just from the name. If I drink it, do I start lifting weights?
Hop BroNot exactly weight training, but it's basically a wheat bock. It combines the aroma of a Weizen with the malty depth and alcohol warmth of a bock, so it's a pretty indulgent kind of beer.
MugiOhhh, so it has that sweet malt richness? But if it's that heavy and still suited to Weizen fans and high-alcohol fans, isn't it being a bit of a show-off?
Hop BroThat's what makes it interesting. This lineup is full of distinctive picks, including the collaboration Album from Yamorido, HEIWA CRAFT, Karuizawa Q, and Swanlake Beer.
MugiAlbum is a great name too! And if it's called the 'one more round' slot, it just makes me want another glass.
Hop BroExactly. The post also recommends Album as a 'one more round' pick. And since Shiga Kogen Beer's SNOW MONKEY IPA is on tap too, it hits for anyone who wants to enjoy a big burst of hop aroma.
MugiSNOW MONKEY IPA sounds cute from the name alone, but the beer itself seems bold! And a hop-forward IPA is the kind that makes your nose happy, right?
Hop BroExactly. And since Minoh Beer's MINOHBEER STOUT (Real Ale) is there too, you can finish with a roasty pint, and the shop is also recommending altbier.
MugiIf it opens at 5 p.m., I can stop by after work! Wandering into Furumachi and finding a place you can choose based on your mood is perfect.
Hop BroYeah, tonight's the kind of night where you have to decide between malt depth and a hop dive. I'm already on standby for the next pint - want to go together, Mugi?
MugiLet's go! With a tap list like this, I'd start with Heller Weizenbock and end with the stout. It's totally tasting-flight mode!
At the beer pub "...04&Beer" on 8-bancho, Nishibori-maedori, Chuo Ward, Niigata City, the spring tap lineup has changed. The highlight this time is Heller Weizenbock from Bavaria's Plank Brewery. In a post, the shop introduced it as a beer suited to fans of Weizen and those who enjoy higher-alcohol brews.
The lineup also includes Album, a collaboration beer made by Kyoto's Yamorido, Wakayama's HEIWA CRAFT, Nagano's Karuizawa Q, and Niigata's Swanlake Beer. In addition, Nagano's Shiga Kogen Beer's SNOW MONKEY IPA, Nagano's KaruizawaQ's Ruby, and Osaka's Minoh Beer's MINOHBEER STOUT (Real Ale) round out the selection, creating a lineup that can be enjoyed broadly, from hop-forward IPAs to wheat-based bocks and roast-driven stouts.
In the post, Album is introduced as an "encore" pick, and altbier is also recommended inside the shop. Open from 5 p.m., the place is easy to drop into in Niigata's Furumachi area and works well on nights when you want to choose a beer to match your mood or taste. Whether you want heavier malt character or a fragrant IPA, this is a place worth checking for the current tap situation before heading over.
