Craft Beer Kitchen Kokoronotsuki posts a six-beer tap list for June 5
Craft Beer Kitchen Kokoronotsuki in Yokohama's Noge area has published its June 5 tap list. The lineup features six beers, including Chasing Dreams from Migration Brewing, Soupy Weizen from Nomcraft Brewing x Repubrew, and beers from 忽布古丹醸造, Barbaric Works, and Echoes Brewing.
Hop BroToday's topic is Yokohama Noge's Craft beer kitchen Kokoro no Tsuki, where the June 5 tap list just dropped. Six beers built around Chinese food is dangerously persuasive.
MugiWait, six beers in Noge and Chinese dishes too!? That happy little moment line from the shop already feels like it's trying to make me order a pint!
Hop BroThe lineup is Migration Brewing's Chasing Dreams, Nomcraft Brewing x Repubrew's Soupy Weizen, Hoppokotan Brewery's Iki na Haka Rye and Misty Way, Barbaric Works' Edomond, and Echoes Brewing's The Wave. It's a stacked six-beer lineup.
MugiHold on, what does Weizen even mean? The name sounds cute, but it doesn't mean soup-flavored beer... right!?
Hop BroImportant question. Weizen is a German-style wheat beer, so it usually drinks soft and gives off a fluffy aroma. Think gentle wheat character, not actual soup in a glass.
MugiOoh! Then what about Hoppokotan's Iki na Haka Rye and that Rye thing? That's the grain, right?
Hop BroYep, rye as in rye grain. It can add a lightly spicy edge and a firmer outline; beer geeks call that structure. In normal-human terms, it's got a solid drinking backbone.
MugiThe second you say structure, beer turns into anatomy class! But okay, that means it's a great tasting-flight setup with options from light and easy to more substantial.
Hop BroExactly. And with steamed chicken in green sansho and scallion sauce, mapo tofu, Shanghai-style fried noodles, and drool wontons, the beer-and-Chinese loop could get out of hand fast.
MugiWhat is this place! It has shrimp mayo and fried eggplant, plus house ginger ale and braised pork rice!? They even built in a non-beer escape hatch. That's suspiciously kind!
Hop BroFriday opening is 3 p.m., so you could start bright and early with The Wave, then slide toward Edomond or Misty Way later. As a single-stop Noge run, it's very strong.
MugiThat's it, I'm thirsty now. Tonight it's Craft beer kitchen Kokoro no Tsuki for taps and Chinese food. No further discussion.
Craft Beer Kitchen Kokoronotsuki, a beer pub in Miyagawa-cho, Naka Ward, Yokohama, has shared its tap list for June 5. On Fridays, the shop opens at 3:00 p.m., and it describes the experience as a place to enjoy beautiful beer with Chinese food.
The day's lineup includes six beers:
- Migration Brewing "Chasing Dreams"
- Nomcraft Brewing x Repubrew "Soupy Weizen"
- 忽布古丹醸造 "粋なはかRye"
- Barbaric Works "Edomond"
- Echoes Brewing "The Wave"
- 忽布古丹醸造 "Misty Way"
The selection spans several breweries and gives drinkers a clear range to choose from, including beers that hint at a Weizen or Rye character in the name. It is the kind of lineup that works well for a casual tasting session or for settling in with one favorite pint.
Food is built around Chinese dishes: steamed chicken with sansho pepper and scallion sauce, fried eggplant with ginger soy sauce, mapo tofu, Shanghai-style fried noodles, shrimp mayo, and yodare wontons. The menu also includes house-made ginger ale, braised pork belly rice bowl, century egg and maqaw potato salad, and shumai, making it easy to pair beer with a full meal.
For anyone drinking around the Noge and Hinodecho area, this is a practical stop for both a fresh tap list and a Chinese-food pairing.
