Hop BroBrewpub Truth in Nishi-Gotanda updated its taps on March 29. They’re celebrating their 7th anniversary, and nine taps including two anniversary beers from Katashina Brewing is a pretty hot lineup.
MugiWhoa, nine taps? And there are anniversary beers too? I’d get lost before even choosing!
Hop BroAnd on top of that, Gotanda Breath is a Scotch Ale at 7%. It’s the kind of beer with a thick malt body, and I love how the gentle sweetness and richness spread out.
MugiScotch Ale... what do you mean by 'thick malt body'? This is turning into bread talk even though it’s alcohol!
Hop BroSimply put, it’s a style where the flavor of the malt comes to the front. In this lineup, there’s also a Session IPA like Under the High, Blue Sky, which is the kind you can keep drinking lightly and easily.
MugiOhhh, so there are lighter ones too. Then you can compare them. I like how 'Session IPA' sounds like someone who doesn’t stay long but still drinks at the party!
Hop BroIf you want to push it further, go for Old Rasputin. It’s a Russian Imperial Stout at 9%, so it’s a tight, complete beer you can savor slowly for its dark sugar-like depth and roasted character.
Mugi9%!? That really has final-boss energy in the beer world! But 'Imperial Stout' sounds strong and kind of funny!
Hop BroThe food is good too. There’s mapo tofu rice, Utsunomiya gyoza, plus potato chips and smoked nuts, so it pairs well with both strong beers and lighter ones.
MugiWow, that’s a lineup that’s fully committed to drinking! Sunday is 16:00-21:00 too, so I want to take it slow in that spring-like air!
Hop BroAt the 7th-anniversary milestone in Gotanda, being able to taste Katashina Brewing's anniversary beers too makes it special, doesn't it? Today, I really want to decide what to start with.
MugiThen I’ll start light and finish strong! Just reading this is making my throat go dry, so I already want to toast right now!
