TBE Brewing in Ebisu Puts Shiga Kogen and Black Tide on Tap on May 20
Ebisu beer pub TBE Brewing has released its tap list for May 20. The lineup features domestic labels from around Japan, including Black Tide, Shiga Kogen Beer, and Ushitora Brewery, along with occasional food such as simmered beef tendon with sansho pepper and sashimi.
Hop BroToday, TBE Brewing in Ebisu has a tap list lined up with Shiga Kogen and Black Tide. Being able to follow breweries from all over Japan in one go is the kind of thing beer pub fans can't resist.
MugiWhoa! So it's a nationwide lineup? That sounds like the freezer is doing a full tour of Japan!
Hop BroExactly. Black Tide's `#480 Tohoku Pride`, Shiga Kogen Beer's `DPA`, and Ushitora's `Sachi Hop Session IPA` are the highlights, and the IPA selection is especially strong.
MugiWait, wait, what's DPA? It sounds like it's part of the IPA family, but aren't there just too many letters in traffic?
Hop BroRoughly speaking, DPA is a dry, easy-drinking beer that's closer to a pale ale. Add in `Kozaru IPA`, `Sono Juu No.10 IPA`, and even collaborations like `Kind of Gold`, and it becomes a lineup made for side-by-side tastings.
MugiThat sounds fun! And `Sake Lees Hazy IPA ZAKU Shinryoku` sounds like a beer that could get you tipsy just from the lettering. A hazy IPA is the cloudy kind, right?
Hop BroThat's right. It looks cloudy, has a softer mouthfeel, and lets the hop aroma come forward more easily. Plus, the post has a low-stock note, so if there's something you're curious about, getting there early is the right move.
MugiWait, it disappears if you don't hurry? That's like hide-and-seek in the beer world. I'll remember the go early advice!
Hop BroAnd the next previews are hot too. Shiga Kogen's `Kasumi` and Black Tide's `#490 Hazy Wave Ver.1.0` are among the teasers, so the next taps are packed too, and the fun keeps going after you leave.
MugiWow, this is the kind of place you want to keep going back to! And if they have `Tender beef tendon simmered with sansho` and `Today's sashimi: buri-hira`, the food is way too serious too!
Hop BroThe beer is the star, but the snacks are strong too. In Ebisu, that balance is pretty reassuring. Tonight, the one drink only plan is the dangerous one.
MugiDangerous, but I want to go! If we do a beer tasting in Ebisu, we're definitely not getting home. So tonight, let's go with the mood for more than just one drink!
