Hop BroTonight's story is about Bar Malt Road in Kanda tapping its original house beer, 'Summer Gift vol. II.'
MugiWhat! Summer Gift vol. II already sounds like wind chimes inside a glass. A pub with its own house beer is instantly exciting!
Hop BroAnd the article says the style isn't disclosed. That makes it more interesting, especially since it's presented as a beer made to enjoy with food.
MugiNo way, the draft lineup is loaded too? So the house beer isn't getting the spotlight all by itself at all!
Hop BroExactly. With Fuller's London Pride from the UK, Schlenkerla Fastenbier from Germany, Chimay Red from Belgium, Sibeeria Ledoborec from the Czech Republic, Tonewood Focal Point from the US, plus Shiga Kogen DPA and NOMCRAFT IPA from Japan, it goes from abbey-style to IPA.
MugiWait, abbey-style means what!? Does the beer ferment while listening to church bells or something?!
Hop BroThat version is a little too cinematic. Basically it's tied to Belgian tradition, with rich layered flavors you want to sip slowly.
MugiOoh! Then that potato and sausage quiche from the article sounds like a seriously perfect partner, right?!
Hop BroAbsolutely. Add sausage rolls, octopus carpaccio, and steak, and you've got straight-up pairing heaven.
MugiI'm done for. A night of tasting flights in a basement pub just became my Kanda plan.
Hop BroStart with the house beer to learn the bar's signature, then move across the international taps. That's the not-enough-glasses plan right there.
MugiYes, and then loop back to 'Summer Gift vol. II' at the end. I want to go now, Bar Malt Road!
At Bar Malt Road, a beer pub on the basement floor in Kanda, the original house beer “Summer Gift Vol. II” is now on tap. The post also highlights a set pairing with the chef’s special potato-and-sausage quiche, suggesting a beer-first approach that still keeps food pairing in focus.
The tap list covers a wide range of countries and drinking styles. From the UK comes Fuller's London Pride; Germany is represented by Schlenkerla Fastenbier; Belgium by Chimay Red; the Czech Republic by Sibeeria Ledoborec; and the U.S. by Tonewood Focal Point. Japanese beers on the board include Shiga Kogen Beer DPA and NOMCRAFT Brewing IPA, making the lineup easy to compare across classic and modern expressions.
The food menu is equally beer-friendly. Sausage rolls, Hokkaido octopus carpaccio, aged beef skirt steak with crispy potatoes, homemade escargot butter, cheese arancini with tomato sauce, and a duck-and-orange salad all appear on the post. For drinkers looking for a low-key Kanda stop with house beer, imported casks, and food that fits the glass, this is a place worth keeping on the radar.
