Hop BroToday, Beer Cafe Gambrinus in Kokubunji is on fire. It's open as usual on March 30, and the fact that it's easy to drop by after work is great, right?
MugiWait, 17:00-25:00 is a long time!? If they're open that late, I'd end up having not just one drink before heading home, but two!
Hop BroThe star of the show is Bernard / Dark 12°, the first directly imported Czech beer. Since there's only one keg, it's first come, first served.
MugiDark sounds heavy, so what do you mean it goes down cleanly? Is it some kind of magic that's black only on the outside!?
Hop BroThat's what makes it interesting. This is a dark lager. Because lagers are fermented slowly at low temperatures, they keep a crisp finish even when they have a toasty character.
MugiI see, that's bottom fermentation! Suddenly this feels like beer class, and my brain is bubbling!
Hop BroAnd the tap list is amazing, with a really wide range for side-by-side tasting. Having everything from hazy IPA to coffee stout and Pilsner Urquell on tap is pretty luxurious.
MugiWhoa, from hazy IPA to stout!? Today's flavor lineup is such a roller coaster that my stomach is lining up at the ticket booth!
Hop BroPlus, under Coming Soon!, Gambrinus 12° Pilsner is scheduled to arrive on April 7. Outsider's Sasquatch is also coming, so there's something to look forward to next as well.
MugiA place near Kokubunji Station on the sixth floor where you can relax and enjoy yourself sounds perfect. Today it's Dark 12°, next it's Pilsner, and now I can't wait to go drink!
