Yokohama Bay Brewing Yokohama Front spotlights paprika marinade and Tag Lager
Yokohama Bay Brewing Yokohama Front posted a July 22 update featuring a char-grilled paprika marinade dressed with white wine vinegar. The tap list includes 24 beers, among them the new Tag Lager and guest beer Yokohama Beer Gold Bitter.
Hop BroI’ve got my eye on the July 22 tap list at Yokohama Bay Brewing Yokohama Front; the new Tag Lager lined up with paprika marinade is basically a summer cheat code.
MugiWait, the paprika marinade is opening for the beer? That snack is trying to steal the whole show!
Hop BroThat’s exactly the point. Paprika roasted over direct heat and finished with white wine vinegar should lock in with a lager’s crisp, clean finish really nicely.
MugiWhoa, what even is a crisp, clean finish? That sounds like the beer has a gym membership!
Hop BroIt just means the flavor doesn’t sit heavy after a sip; it clears out smoothly. With a new lager like Tag Lager, think easy to keep drinking rather than tiring.
MugiOkay, that helps! Then I want to start with Tag Lager and let it reset my whole overheated brain.
Hop BroAnd the lineup is stacked: 24 beers on tap total, with house beers like Bay Pilsner and Sprint IPA plus guests like Yokohama Beer’s Gold Bitter.
MugiTwenty-four!? I’d need a strategy meeting first! And it’s on the 2nd floor of THE YOKOHAMA FRONT right by Yokohama Station? That’s dangerous.
Hop BroGold Bitter brings the gentle bitterness of a bitter-style beer and a light 3.5% body, so it’s perfect for a side-by-side tasting with Tag Lager. I’d order both immediately.
MugiThat settles it. I’d walk in saying just one quick drink, then end up with paprika marinade, Tag Lager, and Gold Bitter in front of me five minutes later!
