Beer Bomb Shinjuku posts 18-tap lineup and September 27 tap takeover
In an August 20 post, Beer Bomb Shinjuku shared its latest 18-tap draft lineup and announced a three-brewery tap takeover for September 27, while also pointing to Interval’s grand opening in Sendagi on September 1. The bar’s range spans lagers, IPAs, stout, and sour beer.
Hop BroToday’s topic is BEER BOMB Shinjuku in Nishi-Shinjuku, and their latest 18-tap lineup is seriously stacked. Beerbomb_shinjuku posted a spread that runs from lagers to stouts, which is exactly my kind of news.
MugiWait, eighteen taps at once? That sounds less like a beer bar and more like a craft beer theme park. What’s actually pouring?
Hop BroYou’ve got Coedo’s Kyara, Crak Brewery’s Pizzapils -Freestyle-, Tokyo Aleworks beers like Borracho and Asakusa Mosaic IPA, plus Other Half’s Big Cashmere Vibes. It’s a domestic-and-global mix built for serious tasting rounds.
MugiWhoa, the beer-name energy is off the charts. Big Cashmere Vibes sounds like I should be wrapped in a fancy sweater before the first sip.
Hop BroThe range is the real hook. You’ve got easygoing picks like Yuyake Amber Lager, hop-forward stuff like Vital Drop IPA and Oyama Haze, and even Grimm’s Double Negative, so the style range is huge.
MugiHold on, style range is huge sounds impressive, but what does that actually mean? And “haze”... are we suddenly talking about weather?
Hop BroFair question. Style just means the type of beer: lager is crisp, IPA is hop-aromatic, stout is dark and roasty, sour brings acidity. Haze usually points to a cloudy IPA style with a softer mouthfeel.
MugiOkay, so this is basically a drink-by-your-mood kind of place. And the fact that the pub was rebuilt from a garage makes it sound like a secret base for beer people.
Hop BroAnd there’s more: Interval grand-opens near Sendagi Station on September 1, and on September 27 they’re hosting a three-brewery TTO with Baldys Good Beer, Nama Chan Brewing, and Rio Brewing Co., plus collab beers and event food.
MugiI almost thought TTO meant “total tap occupation,” but now I get it. Tap Take Over means the whole draft lineup turns into a brewery party, and now I absolutely want a pint or two in Nishi-Shinjuku.
