Novoru Brewing tap takeover set for Craft Beer & Cuisine oasis in Nakameguro, Aug. 15-16
Craft Beer & Cuisine oasis in Nakameguro will host a two-day Novoru Brewing tap takeover on Aug. 15-16. The event includes a support campaign, 10 beers on tap, and a special food menu built around Kumamoto and Miyazaki ingredients.
Hop BroAt Craft Beer & Cuisine oasis in Nakameguro, the Novoru Brewing TTO is happening on August 15 and 16. Ten beers on tap plus limited food makes this a very serious mission, right?
MugiWhat! Ten beers on tap is a lot, isn’t it!? And a tap takeover means the whole place basically turns into one brewery’s playground, right?
Hop BroExactly, and this time Novoru Brewing from Miyazaki is the star. They go from West Coast IPA and Hazy IPA to Belgian styles and stout, so the tap list has real range.
MugiWhoa! But TDH and DDH suddenly sound like spell names to me!? If I say them out loud, do I gain hop powers?
Hop BroHere’s the simple version: extra hop loading. DDH means a heavy dry-hop treatment, TDH pushes it even further, so Asobe II and Hiraku should come with big juicy aroma.
MugiNo way, huge aroma blast sounds amazing! But is there anything for people who don’t want a super bitter beer?
Hop BroDefinitely. Abiru Belgian White uses hyuganatsu for a light citrus feel, Hibisucus is a refreshing fruit sour, and Saboru is a Coffee IPA with absolutely no intention of letting you slack off.
MugiA beer called Saboru with no slacking allowed is cracking me up! And Nova 2026 is an imperial stout with vanilla, so even the dessert slot is covered.
Hop BroAnd the best part is 100 yen per pour goes to earthquake relief support in Kumamoto. There’s also a donation box, plus special food like Akaushi tagliata, chicken nanban, and hebesu carpaccio.
MugiThat means you can drink, eat, and help at the same time! I seriously want to run to Nakameguro now and start with a toast of Warau, the West Coast IPA.
