BEER COLONY Taps KUNISAWA's "SHIMBASHI Classic Lager"
Toyama's BEER COLONY updated its tap list on Instagram. In this post, it newly introduced KUNISAWA's "SHIMBASHI Classic Lager." Latticework, Mikkeller NZ, and Dieu Du Ciel! also appear on the lineup, and canned beer arrivals were announced as well.
Hop BroToyama's BEER COLONY tap update is here, and this time KUNISAWA's "SHIMBASHI Classic Lager" has been tapped, right? Both the draft and canned beer lists are moving around, and it's a lineup that makes you restless just looking at it.
MugiWhoa! Shimbashi Classic Lager sounds classy even from the name! And it's from Tokyo's KUNISAWA, too. Lager fans are going to react to this one!
Hop BroExactly. The style is a Bohemian Pilsner. It has a solid malt presence, but also a sharp hop edge, so the good part is that it isn't just light and thin.
MugiSo Bohemian means it feels like going on a trip or something? I still only kind of get the difference between pilsners, and my head is kind of going wild with foam right now!
Hop BroBasically, it's a lager you enjoy for the balance between malt character and bitterness. This article also mentions a honey-like quality and caramel-like sweetness, so the drinking impression is gentle, but it still has depth.
MugiOhh! A lager with honey-like notes feels a little like a treat. If I took one sip after work, I feel like all the tension in my shoulders would just melt away!
Hop BroAnd this time it's a six-slot tap lineup, with Kanaya Ale, Windy Hill, and Petite Morale also on. Because it's on the smaller side, it really lets you take your time with the four beers currently on tap, which feels very BEER COLONY.
MugiWhat is that! It's a tasting lineup that's fun to compare! If there's a Pale Ale, a Hazy IPA, and an IPA too, then today's a flavor adventure tour!
Hop BroThe canned arrivals are hot too, with Revision, WCB, LA Ale Works, North Island Beer, Faction, KCBC, Grimm, Tokyo Aleworks, Beachwood, and Von Ebert all listed. The canned beer selection is strong too, so even just looking at the shelves is fun.
MugiWait, that's way too much information in the best way! If you can't miss the shelves either, that just gives you more reasons to go. The fact that you can drink while having quiet conversation there also feels kind of grown-up, and I like that.
Hop BroIn short, this is an update I'd recommend to lager fans. If you take your time and work through both the draft and the cans starting with SHIMBASHI Classic Lager, it's going to be a very satisfying night.
MugiYeah, now I completely want a drink! Let's make tonight's pint this one, Hop big bro, hurry up and take me to BEER COLONY!
