NEIGHBOR Introduces Eight Taps, Including Kagiya Brewery's "003 Mellow Yellow IPA"
The beer pub NEIGHBOR craftbeer&grill in Nogata, Tokyo, has released today's tap list and food lineup. The highlight is an eight-tap setup spanning meat dishes, including a new Italian hot dog, plus IPA, saison, and red ale.
Hop BroNogata's NEIGHBOR craftbeer&grill has put out today's menu with an 8-tap lineup. They've even added a new Italian hot dog to the food menu, and you can feel the commitment to drinking first.
MugiWait, they’re serious starting with a hot dog!? An Italian hot dog already sounds delicious just from the name!
Hop BroIt's the kind with mozzarella and basil sausage tucked into a koppepan roll, and it's a pretty deliberate combination. As a beer partner, the best part is that the food focus is very clear.
MugiI see! But there are so many beers, I don't know what to choose. With everything from IPA to red ale, how am I supposed to decide?
Hop BroIf you like hops, start with Kagiya Brewery's 003 Mellow Yellow IPA. As a Hazy IPA, it's the kind that lets you enjoy a burst of aroma and juiciness, and putting it first really brightens up the mood of the place.
MugiHuh, I hear about hazy beers a lot, but isn't it just something cloudy? The hazy aroma really makes that much of a difference?
Hop BroIn simple terms, it's not just about the haze in appearance; it's a style that puts hop-driven aroma forward. Here, O'Hara's Brewery's 51st State IPA and hop-forward beers like Cycad Brewing's Riedlei3 are on the list too, so tasting them side by side should be fun.
MugiWow, I want to compare them! But I'm also curious about the lighter ones, so today is turning into a tough choice...! When you say easy-drinking, that catches my attention too!
Hop BroFor that category, there's Cycad Brewing's Hanami/Sakura Saison and Shiokaze Blue Lab's Bakuzan. Saison is dry and easy to drink, and with Best Bitter and Irish Red on the list too, the pairing with food is a real strength.
MugiWait, they even have dark beers!? FLORA FERMENTATION's Waldschrat/Schwarz Weizen sounds like a forest fairy just from the name!
Hop BroThat's what makes it interesting: from Brut IPA to dark Schwarz Weizen, the lineup has a wide range. They've got keema curry, jerk chicken rice, and burgers too, and with a 5 p.m. opening, it makes you want to stop by straight after work.
MugiI'm already hungry! If it's easy to come with a dog and park a bike, that's perfect for everyday use too. Today, let's start at NEIGHBOR and go straight for the first drink!
