Takadanobaba Beer Shokudo taps a keg of Nekobeer's "Nerutora-san"
In an April 3 post, Takadanobaba Beer Shokudo announced that it had tapped one keg of Nekobeer's IPA, "Nerutora-san (6.5%)." The previous No. 9 beer had ended, conveying a changeover at the tap.
Hop BroAt the beer pub Takadanobaba Beer Shokudo in Takadanobaba, they opened one keg of Nerutora-san. It's Nekobeer's IPA, and the alcohol content is 6.5%.
MugiWhoa, so opened one keg means when it's gone, they switch to the next one!? It sounds hard to keep up with, but fun!
Hop BroExactly. They also announced that the No. 9 beer had ended right before that, so you can really see the tap changeover, which is nice.
MugiSeriously, just a tap list update gets you that excited? I don't really get the feeling of searching for the "star of the day" yet.
Hop BroThat's the fun part. This time's star is Nekobeer's IPA, a style where the hop aroma and bitterness really stand out. It's enjoyable to see how that balances with the malt sweetness.
MugiHuh! But IPA is a name I know, so what makes it so special? The name sounds intense, almost like a combat sport!
Hop BroRoughly speaking, it's a hop-forward beer. The aroma is bright and the bitterness comes through easily, so it's the kind that makes you think, 'Here it comes,' even before you take a sip.
MugiI see! And with a 6.5% IPA, it probably has some real body. I can already picture my face on the first sip!
Hop BroPlus, Takadanobaba Beer Shokudo opens at 3 p.m. on weekdays and from noon on weekends and holidays, so it's convenient as a place for daytime drinking too.
MugiWait, from noon!? That's dangerous... but amazing! And since they're closed on Mondays, and there are food and drink last-order times, planning how to drink matters!
Hop BroThere's also a note that sound carries easily inside, so instead of being loud and rowdy, it feels like a place where you want to tilt your glass and focus on the flavor.
MugiWow, then I'd want to savor it slowly! It makes me want to go drink Nerutora-san on a day I'm looking for IPA in Takadanobaba.
Hop BroThat's settled then. Just reading the article makes my throat want a drink, and now it's all about looking forward to the next glass.
