TBE Brewing in Ebisu: Yorocco Beer’s Skywalker IPA on the March 26 Tap List
In a March 26 post from TBE Brewing (Ebisu Minami, Tokyo), Yorocco Beer’s Skywalker IPA was on tap. A diverse range of draft beers was also on offer, including Yatsugatake Touchdown’s cold-brew coffee lager and Minoh Beer’s Rockin' Osaru.
Hop BroAt TBE Brewing in Ebisu Minami, Skywalker IPA was on the March 26 tap list. Even with stocks a bit low at the end of the month, it still had a clear headliner feel, which is nice.
MugiWhoa! Skywalker IPA sounds strong just from the name! It sounds Star Wars-ish, but it's beer?
Hop BroExactly, and TBE Brewing is a beer pub on the second floor of the Shinbori Guitar Building. Drinking IPA in a guitar building is kind of rock and roll, right?
MugiI get the rock part, but what's a KEG lineup? My brain freezes when you suddenly throw English at me for the barrel names!
Hop BroKEG just means draft beer. So that day they had draft beers lined up, and you could enjoy a broad range, not just Yorocco Beer's IPA.
MugiOhh! If it goes from lager to IPA, even beginners can choose easily. A cold brew coffee lager is basically the kind of name that makes you want to drink it in the morning, right?
Hop BroGood catch. Yatsugatake Touchdown's cold brew coffee lager is the kind that carries coffee aroma over a light body, so it's easy to pair with food.
MugiAnd the food is serious too! Natural bluefin tuna and Oyamadori chicken thigh? Are bar snacks really that serious there?
Hop BroThey are. A place that can do both beer and food well is strong, and hop-forward beers like Rockin' Osaru or Shiga Kogen's IPA go well with fried food and grilled dishes.
MugiThis is basically a one-stop spot in Ebisu... I’m way too curious about the next candidates too, with Honey Saison and Hysteric IPA coming up!
Hop BroThen next time, let's start with Skywalker IPA at TBE Brewing and go all in on the food too. Just reading about it makes my throat dry, so this really is a place to go.
