Mugishu Yumeyomi in Kyoto to serve chicken & chips and four draft beers on Aug. 21
Kyoto beer pub Mugishu Yumeyomi announced its Friday, Aug. 21 service from 7:00 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. Chicken & chips will be served alongside four drafts, including OHLOY's LUNA and WOODMILL's Hassaku White.
Hop BroTonight's story is Kyoto's 麥酒 夢詠ミ. On August 21 they're pouring four taps with chicken and chips, which is a very serious way to spend an evening.
MugiWhat! A chicken-and-chips night already sounds like a win. Four draft beers too? Where am I even supposed to start?
Hop BroFirst target is OHLOY's LUNA. It's a traditional-leaning dark lager, and it's apparently close to kicking, so the timing matters.
MugiHold on, an everyday dark beer? Dark beer usually looks like it wants to assign me homework!
Hop BroThat's the trick. It's lighter than it looks, with toasty depth but an easy finish, so you can keep sipping without getting flattened.
MugiOkay, then Hassaku White has my attention. That name alone sounds like summer opened a citrus stand!
Hop BroWOODMILL went with hassaku and wheat beer together. Bright citrus on a soft white-beer base should cut right through fried food.
MugiBut Brasserie Knot's RIVER says a dry saison. What is saison? A beer or a boss battle?
Hop BroVery much a beer style. Think farmhouse summer ale and it clicks fast; RIVER sounds fruity and clear up front, then finishes crisp and dry.
MugiAnd then the closer is the smoky レーメンブロイ? That's unfair. The lineup suddenly smells like a campfire in the best way.
Hop BroIt's a collab from Bearen and HIGHBURY, and the key is rauch malt in the grist. Rauch means smoked, so that aroma is built right into the malt; I absolutely want to drink this on site.
MugiWith service from 7:00 to 11:30 p.m. and solo drinkers welcome, this is dangerously convenient. Start with LUNA, chase it with RIVER, steal bites of chicken and chips, and yes, I want that pint now.
Mugishu Yumeyomi, a beer pub on the second floor of the Shima-ya Building in Kyoto's Shijo-Daigoji area, announced its plan for Friday, Aug. 21. Service runs from 7:00 p.m. to 11:30 p.m., with food last call at 9:30 p.m. The bar welcomes solo drinkers and does not take large groups. Chicken & chips are on the menu, keeping the focus firmly on beer.
The draft lineup for the day features four beers. `LUNA` from OHLOY is described as a daily, traditional dark lager and is nearing the end of service. `Hassaku White` from WOODMILL pairs bright citrus character with a light white-beer profile. `RIVER` from Brasserie Knot is a dry saison suited to summer drinking, with a clean fruity aroma. `Ramen Bräu` from Baeren x HIGHBURY uses a portion of rauch malt in the grist, giving it a smoky edge.
Mugishu Yumeyomi is the kind of place where you can sit back in the heart of Gion and compare very different taps in one evening. With freshly fried chicken & chips and a lineup ranging from dark lager to white beer, saison, and smoked-malt lager, it offers an easy way to build a night around beer rather than around a menu.
