MugiWhat? That name is intriguing! What is Laurel Dry Lager like?
Hop BroIt’s a lager from Osaka’s Kuninocho Beer, with a laurel aroma that gently rises through your nose.
MugiLaurel, like the leaf for stews? Will it taste like curry?
Hop BroNot that stew-like! It has a herbal laurel character and a crisp, dry finish.
MugiOhh! So “dry” means less sweetness and a lighter finish—am I right?
Hop BroExactly. The sweetness is restrained, so it finishes cleanly. That makes it great with food.
MugiThen I need the pike conger nanban-zuke from the article! Its tangy flavor sounds perfect with herbs.
Hop BroNice choice. Fried dishes and roast beef should work too, and the taps include Pearl Salt Gose and a dark lager.
MugiThat’s the happiest kind of getting lost in a tasting! With lagers through ales, I need to clear my schedule—and my stomach!
Hop BroThey’re open from 8 p.m. to midnight on September 20. A Toyohashi nightcap after the fireworks sounds perfect.
MugiDone! Let’s try the lager with pike conger and experience that rising laurel aroma!
Toys Brewery, a brewpub on Ekimae-Odori in Toyohashi, has tapped Laurier Dry Lager from Kuninocho Beer in Osaka.
The lager is described as having an aroma of laurel leaves that rises through the nose, followed by a dry, clean finish. Its crisp character and herbal fragrance make it well suited to food, with the post specifically recommending it alongside hamo nanbanzuke, marinated conger pike.
The tap list also includes Aria from Wuchawteng Brewery in Nagano, Tengu from GROUNDTAP BREWERY in Ehime, Lager Strikes Back 02 Pure Black Lager from Shimanami Brewery in Hiroshima, Pearl Salt Gose from Shima Brewery in Mie, and Blumen Ale from Hino Brewing in Shiga. The selection offers a broad range of styles, from crisp lagers to gose and ale.
Food options include a roast beef plate, clay-pot rice balls with yellowtail, marinated conger pike, assorted vegetable tempura, grilled black edamame, curry-flavored fried chicken, domestic beef rump steak, and freshly fried potato chips. The dry lager’s herbal aroma should work well with the seafood dish, while its clean finish also suits richer meat and fried dishes.
On September 20, the brewpub was scheduled to open from 8 p.m. to midnight, making it a convenient stop for dinner and beer after the local fireworks. Located on Ekimae-Odori in Toyohashi, Toys Brewery offers a tap-focused setting for exploring seasonal beers with a meal.
