Hop BroKanda beer pub Himalaya table's 8 taps were announced for April 13. Since the shop pairs craft beer with Nepalese cuisine and spice food, this lineup looks perfect for a tasting session again.
MugiWhoa! Eight kinds on tap!? With that many, I'd spend an hour just deciding where to start!
Hop BroThe one to watch is definitely Kinki Pale Ale. It's a Krush single ver., so it narrows in on the hop's character and makes the aroma profile really easy to follow.
MugiWhat!? Single Ver. means they narrowed it down to one hop? And Krush sounds so intense I’m a little scared!
Hop BroExactly. It's a way of showing the appeal of one hop variety without layering multiple hops. That's why the aroma profile comes through clearly, and the fun side of pale ale really stands out.
MugiOhhh! That makes me want to compare them. There are two T.Y.HARBOR beers too, so it sounds fun to compare the malt differences between the amber ale and the pale ale!
Hop BroThat's the point. If you want to taste the malt depth, go with the amber; if you want something lighter, go with the pale. Even from the same brewery, the expression changes quite a bit.
MugiAnd there's a lager too! If I start with Nihonkai Club Pilsner for a clean finish and then move to Hoppu Kotan's Session IPL, my stomach is basically on a beer tour!
Hop BroThat order is pretty solid. A Session IPL is easy to drink but still has real hop character, so it's a style that can appeal even to lager fans.
MugiAnd they even have Nara Brewing's Belgian wit and Baeren's Rauch Bock! Being able to move between totally opposite personalities with citrus and smoke is just the best - this is pure fun!
Hop BroAnd to top it off, there's ogna's anniversary beer too, so it's nice that you can taste the shop's milestones in a glass. If there are this many wide-ranging beers lined up near Kanda Station, then today's definitely a day to go drink.
MugiYeah, it's decided! I want to compare beers in Kanda and attack some Nepalese food too! Today, both me and Hop bro are definitely not stopping at one drink!
Tokyo's Uchi-Kanda beer pub "Himalaya table" announced its lineup on Instagram for Monday, April 13. True to the shop's focus on craft beer, Nepalese cuisine, and spice-based food, the day features a full eight-tap lineup, offering a wide range of styles from lager to IPA, Belgian wit, and Rauchbock.
The highlight of the day is Kinki Pale Ale. Brewed with a narrowed hop lineup, it is a beer that lets you carefully follow the aroma profile of a pale ale. Also on tap are T.Y.HARBOR Amber Ale and T.Y.HARBOR Pale Ale, making it possible to compare malt depth and drinkability as you work through the lineup.
If you're looking for a crisp, easy-drinking pour, Nihonkai Club Pilsner and Hoppu Kotan Ignition-Session IPL- are strong candidates. The former offers clean lager character, while the latter brings hop expression within a sessionable, easy-to-drink profile. In addition, Nara Brewing Philharmonie BELGIAN WIT w/TACHIBANA is a white beer style with citrus notes, and Baeren Onmenbroi -RAUCH BOCK- is a bock that lets you enjoy smoky aromas, making for a tasting set with clear contrasts.
Also appearing is ogna Himabitter (anniversary beer). Putting an anniversary beer on tap is part of what makes this shop interesting, as you can feel its milestones through the glass. Near Kanda Station, this is one place where you can center your meal around beer and enjoy food alongside it, so it's worth keeping an eye on the lineup updates.
