BEER PUB BRICK LANE previews Totopia burgers and eight taps for the 22nd
The Nagoya beer pub announced a Totopia Brewery burger collaboration for the 22nd, including its first meatball burger and a limited-time Old School Cheese Burger. The draft list spans Totopia Brewery and AMAKUSA SONAR BEER, with draft beer available to take out by weight.
Hop BroBEER PUB BRICK LANE in Nagoya's Nishiki has a Totopia collab day coming on Saturday the 22nd. A special burger plus eight taps from Totopia Brewery and AMAKUSA SONAR BEER is the kind of lineup that makes you thirsty before you even walk in.
MugiWhat! Eight taps lined up means they're going all in on both beer and food! And BRICK LANE bringing serious burgers too feels almost unfair, doesn't it?
Hop BroThe headline act is the first meatball burger they've done. Each meatball is rolled by hand, simmered slowly in tomato sauce, then packed into a bun, which already sounds like a guaranteed win.
MugiNo way! Slow-simmered in tomato sauce sounds like the kind of food with steam rising in cinematic slow motion. And if Old School Cheese Burger is there too, my stomach is about to start a riot.
Hop BroThe beer side is stacked too. Totopia is bringing B-phobia’26 and Noxphobia, plus Invasionphobia, Spinphobia, and Luckphobia, while AMAKUSA SONAR BEER has SONAR DROP, ONE MIND, and BABAN!BA!BA!BAN!KAN!.
MugiWith all these phobia names, I sound like I'm trying to cast a spell already! Also, how are you even supposed to choose when there are eight taps?
Hop BroOn a day like this, a tasting run is best. The article doesn't list each beer's style, but you still get to track Totopia's aggressive lineup against AMAKUSA SONAR BEER's distinct character, and even the wild names become part of the fun.
MugiHold on, what is a tap in this context? My brain only knows kitchen faucets, so the whole scene in my head is getting very domestic.
Hop BroImportant distinction here. In a beer pub, a tap is the draft line used to pour from the keg. So eight taps means eight draft beers ready to pour on site. And since they offer takeout by weight, the fun can keep going at home.
MugiOhhh! Take-home by weight is such a great move. You can crush a burger with a pint at the pub, then bring your favorite beer home like a proper weekend professional.
Hop BroAnd being in Nagoya's Nishiki near the Fushimi area makes it a beer-and-burger stop worth remembering. On days like this, just imagining the next pour after the next bite is enough to make me want a drink immediately.
MugiThat's it, I can't wait for the 22nd. Meatball burger in one hand, Totopia or SONAR in the other, and either way I want a drink right now!
