TBE Brewing in Ebisu updated its kegs on May 19 with 10 barrels, including Black Tide and Shiga Kogen
Ebisu beer pub TBE Brewing announced its May 19 keg lineup. In addition to 10 barrels including Black Tide, Shiga Kogen Beer, Ushitora Brewery, and Minoh Beer, it also previewed six NEXT TAP candidates for the next round and its whimsy food specials.
Hop BroMugi-chan, TBE Brewing in Minami-Ebisu put out its May 19 KEG update. Black Tide, Shiga Kogen, Ushitora, and Minoh are all lined up with 10 barrels in total, and it’s the kind of list that makes your throat work just looking at it.
MugiWhat, 10 barrels? If there are that many, I’d freeze up trying to decide where to start!
Hop BroThe one to anchor things with is Shiga Kogen Beer’s tasting lineup. Since DPA, Snow Monkey IPA Silver Label ver., and Sono Ju No.10 IPA are all there, you can enjoy the range within the same brewery.
MugiWhat even is DPA? That’s way too alphabet-soup. Is it a beer code?
Hop BroDPA is basically an easy-drinking, mellow kind of ale. Add Ushitora’s Session IPA, `Sachi Hop Session IPA`, and Minoh Beer’s `Kozaru IPA`, and the balance between lightness and hop character gets really interesting.
MugiOhhh! Session IPA sounds like something you could drink for ages, but it’s actually light and easygoing.
Hop BroExactly. And with Ise Kadoya Beer’s `Sake Lees Hazy IPA ZAKU Shinryoku`, BLACK TIDE’s `#480 Tohoku Pride`, and DOGFISH × OXBOW × SHIGAKOGEN’s `Kind of Gold` too, it covers everything from hazy to collaboration beers.
MugiThat’s way too fancy! Just hearing collaboration beer gets me hyped, and the names sound like a festival!
Hop BroOn top of that, NEXT TAP BEER includes Shiga Kogen’s `Kasumi` and Nomcraft’s `7th Anniversary Sour IPA`, and the food is strong too, from burihira sashimi to beef tendon simmered with sansho. That’s very TBE Brewing: it really pays attention to the food that supports the beer.
MugiNow I definitely want to go! I want to have a drink in Ebisu and slowly work my way through the snacks and KEGs.
Hop BroYeah, when there’s an update like this on an Ebisu night, it instantly settles the plan for a beer-bar crawl. I’d swing by after work too and start with DPA before letting the hops carry me away.
MugiI want to go too! A first glass that’s light, then something hazy, and then finish with a collaboration beer: that’s basically the perfect happy course!
