Three Beers, Including Shiga Kogen Beer IPA, Tapped at Craft Beer Market Mitsukoshimae
At Craft Beer Market Mitsukoshimae, three beers were tapped: Shiga Kogen Beer IPA, Johana Beer's Akeboyama Black, and Gotemba Kogen Beer Pils. At the beer pub on the first floor of COREDO Muromachi 3 in Nihonbashi Muromachi, the lineup works well for anything from an after-work drink to a meal.
Hop BroTonight's highlight is the three beers tapped at Mitsukoshimae. At Craft Beer Market Mitsukoshimae, Shiga Kogen Beer IPA, Johana Beer's Akeboyama Black, and Gotemba Kogen Beer Pils all went on tap at once.
MugiWhoa, three at once!? That's beer-tasting heaven. The choice of where to start would probably reveal your personality too.
Hop BroStart with Shiga Kogen Beer IPA. It has a nice balance of hop aroma, bitterness, and malt character, and it brings out the crisp outline that defines an IPA.
MugiAn outline? What is that? 'Hop outline' makes beer sound like it suddenly turned into a museum.
Hop BroPut simply, it means the aroma and bitterness don't blur together. When the outline of the aroma and bitterness is clear, you can take one sip and know, 'Ah, that's an IPA.'
MugiI get it! Then Akeboyama Black is the one I'm curious about. Black beer sounds heavy, but it's a black IPA, right?
Hop BroExactly. It's designed to be easy to try even for people who aren't into dark beer. It has the toasted aroma of roasted malt, but the finish is clean, and the hop bitterness ties everything together lightly.
MugiWait, dark but clean!? The gap between how it looks and how it tastes is huge. It's kind of a tsundere beer.
Hop BroLast is Gotemba Kogen Beer Pils. It's a pilsner with a refreshing finish, made with water from Mount Fuji's underground springs, so it's easy to pair with your first drink or with a meal.
MugiThat's the kind of beer that makes you want a post-work drink at COREDO Muromachi! If you can use it for lunch and dinner, and it even has happy hour, then this is definitely where I'm ending the day.
Hop BroExactly. What makes it strong is that you can enjoy both the classics and the distinctive picks at the same time. If you're drinking in Mitsukoshimae, the best flow today is to start with the IPA, play around with the black beer, and finish with the Pils.
MugiAlright, now I totally want a drink! Tonight's beer candidate is the kind of place you'll seriously agonize over at Mitsukoshimae.
