Hop BroOkei Brewery Nippori in Higashi-Nippori just dropped its June 11 tap list, and it even comes with a new seafood marinade on the food side.
MugiWhat! Seafood marinade with beer? That sounds like an instant winning lunch plan!
Hop BroAnd the house lineup is strong too, with Arakawa HAZY Underbridge, OKEI IPA, and Nippori Kolsch showing off the brewpub's range.
MugiWait, what is hazy exactly? It sounds like a fog machine living under a bridge!
Hop BroA hazy is a cloudy hop-forward style, and the big appeal is that juicy soft texture when you take a sip.
MugiOhhh! So Nippori Kolsch is not some magic spell that makes you thirsty the second you arrive?
Hop BroNot quite. Kolsch is a light clean ale-style beer, so on a hot day that crisp easy finish really hits the spot.
MugiThe guest taps look stacked too! Abe Orchard Pear Saison already sounds like it showed up in stylish summer clothes.
Hop BroExactly, and with Hop Kotan Brewing's Totonou plus Nara Brewing Co.'s Ennui, you can compare fruitiness, cleanness, and different lingering finishes across the guest trio.
MugiWow, this suddenly turned into advanced tasting class! But if there's an all-you-can-drink course, I am ready to study seriously.
Hop BroThen you slip in the seafood marinade between pours, reset your palate, and suddenly I want my first glass now.
MugiSame. I want to start with the pear saison and then work through all 12 taps one by one in Nippori.
