Hop BroMOONRISE KINGDOM in Nishi-Shinjuku has updated its `WEEKEND CRAFTBEER TAP` for the weekend. On May 30 and 31, the keg lineup is looking especially good.
MugiWait, even with just three kegs ? That alone feels like more than enough reason to go out for a drink!
Hop BroAnd the beers are great too. There's BLACKTIDE brewing's "Kesennuma Pride ver. 12.1 IPA," Y.MARKET brewing's "Trail Current New Zealand-Style IPA," and NOMCRAFT brewing's "emulator〜IPL〜."
MugiWhat is that! What makes a NZ-Style IPA different from a regular IPA? The name alone sounds kind of intense!
Hop BroBroadly speaking, it's an IPA that highlights the character of New Zealand hops. They tend to bring out citrus, tropical fruit, and white grape-like aromas, with a refreshing feel that's really pleasant.
MugiOhhh! Then I'm curious about IPL too! It sounds like it's related to IPA, but it says lager, so now my head is spinning.
Hop BroThat's what makes it interesting: it's a hop-forward lager. Instead of ale yeast, it leans toward the clean feel of lager yeast, while carrying IPA-like aroma, so the drinking experience is very crisp.
MugiI see, a tasting comparison sounds fun! And with 30 overseas bottles too, just choosing what to drink feels like a little trip.
Hop BroThe food is thoughtful too. They have dishes designed to pair with beer, including seasonal fresh fish ceviche, fish tacos, BBQ steak burritos, homemade quesadillas, and garlic shrimp pasta.
MugiWow, the combination of tacos and keg beer alone sounds so happy...! And with ceviche too, it's perfect for a hot weekend.
Hop BroAnd lately, it sounds like more people have been toasting at the outdoor seats. Lunch is from 12:00 to 14:30, and dinner is from 17:30 to 23:00, so it's just right for lingering outside with a drink.
MugiNow I really want to go! I want to spend the weekend at MOONRISE KINGDOM and enjoy IPA, IPL, and bottles all together!
Hop BroIt's decided then, it's the perfect day for a tasting comparison. If you start with a drink in Nishi-Shinjuku, you probably won't want to go home.
