BEER CAFE GAMBRINUS in Kokubunji, Tokyo, has posted its June 13 tap list. The pub opens at 3:00 p.m. on the final day of the Kokubunji Veg Tomato Festa, with Ushitora “Sen no Sake ni Natte” and 12 other beers on the board.
Hop BroToday’s BEER CAFE GAMBRINUS tap list in Kokubunji is looking wild. It lines up with the final day of the Kokubunji Tomato Festa, and they’ve got 13 beers on draft.
MugiWhat! Thirteen taps means I’d get lost in front of the handles! And it’s the last day of the tomato festival, so now I’m hungry too!
Hop BroExactly, they’re doing a 3 p.m. opening on Saturday and pouring until 1 a.m. They’ve got local Kokubunji tomato dishes too, from agedashi to dashi jelly to mini pizza.
MugiThat is dangerous in the best way! So out of the three fresh tappings, which ones are the stars?
Hop BroThe headliner is Ushitora’s Sen no Sake ni Natte. It’s a Quadruple IPA with serious weight, while Craftrock’s One Hand Dunk is an American IPA and Yamorido’s Yamori Gold is a Golden Ale.
MugiHold on, Quadruple IPA sounds like a spell! Does the IPA split into four people!?
Hop BroNot more people, just more aroma and heft. Think bright hop character stacked with extra body and booze warmth, so it drinks way bigger than a standard IPA.
MugiOhhh! Then Yamori Gold feels like the easy doorway, and after that I kind of want to dunk myself straight into One Hand Dunk!
Hop BroThat’s a solid route. They’ve also got hazies like Tuatara, Sakura Brewery’s Black Magic Stout, and even a sake-yeast beer, so the range is huge.
MugiWait, a sake-yeast beer means it can give off a sake-like vibe too? My brain is wobbling between izakaya mode and brewery mode!
Hop BroExactly. That yeast can bring a really distinct twist, and pairing it with tomato dishes could totally change how each pour shows up. I’m already trying to pick my first glass.
MugiI’m done for, my throat got thirsty just hearing that! At GAMBRINUS I need that first pint now, preferably with a full thirteen-tap strategy meeting!
