Hop BroAt KAWASAKI Craft Beer Stand by Tokaido Beer in Kawasaki Azalea, Nori's Beer's Kai no Midori has been newly tapped. With Tokaido BEER's classics lined up alongside guest kegs, it's the kind of place where your feet stop in front of the taps.
MugiWait, you can drink that much in Azalea!? 18 taps means you'd get lost before you even start choosing!
Hop BroAnd this 'Kai no Midori' is a NanbuCha Ale, 5% ABV. It uses tea leaves from Nambu Town, Yamanashi Prefecture, and brings together tea aroma, astringency, and hop bitterness really well.
MugiNanbuCha Ale? What is that! If you put tea in beer, is it basically a tea ceremony? I'm curious about the tea-derived astringency!
Hop BroIn short, it's like layering tea-leaf aroma over the malt sweetness. So it's not just a novelty; the aim is an elegant aromatic design.
MugiI see! Then I'm curious about Tokaido BEER too, and just seeing 9 all-you-can-drink options gives me energy!
Hop BroThe lineup is strong too. '1623' IPA, 'Black Relaxation' Porter, 'Barley Encounter' Belgian Wheat, and even the wild naming of Kawasaki Big Beer Totonoaeru.
MugiThe names are already fun! And with things like 'Hazy IPA' and 'Saison,' it's a format where you can choose by mood, which is beginner-friendly.
Hop BroThe guests aren't missing anything either. Fruited sour, Mexican light lager, Dortmunder, and session IPA are all there, so it's a spectacular lineup of a wide variety of guest kegs.
MugiAnd if you can bring in food and do takeout too, it's perfect for a quick detour for one drink. A scratch-card event too? That's cheating!
Hop BroPlaces like this work well after work or before a drinking party. Today I want to start with 'Kai no Midori' and then do a Tokaido BEER tasting comparison.
MugiYeah, I totally want to drink now! First I'll check the tea aroma, and finish with an IPA, I'm in the mood to head straight to Kawasaki right now!
The tap list at the beer pub KAWASAKI Craft Beer Stand by Tokaido Beer, located in the Kawasaki Azalea underground mall directly connected to Kawasaki Station, was updated on March 26. The house focuses on Tokaido BEER's own brews, while also offering a broad lineup that includes guest beers, making it an easy place to stop by between shopping or before heading out for drinks.
The new tap for the day was Nori's Beer's No. 15, 'Kai no Midori.' The style is NanbuCha Ale, 5% ABV, and it is described as a beer brewed with 'Kai no Midori' tea leaves from Nambu Town in Yamanashi Prefecture, aiming for a balance of elegant aroma, tea-derived astringency, and hop bitterness. The key point is that you can enjoy tea-like nuances even though it is beer.
As of 5:10 p.m., there were 18 items on tap. From Tokaido BEER: '1623' IPA, 'Black Relaxation' Porter, 'Blush Pretext' Amber Ale, 'Barley Encounter' Belgian Wheat, 'Kawasaki Big Beer Totonoaeru' Hazy IPA, 'Gordon Setter' English Pale Ale, 'Mugi Bar 2nd Anniversary Kinako-Colored Fluffy Hazy' Hazy IPA, 'Limochiso (red shiso beer)' Saison, and 'FRO AGARI YELL' Herb Ale.
The guest options are worth noting too. From GRANDLINE's 'Mrs. scarlet' Fruited Sour Ale, Fill Brewing's 'MI Casa Tu Casa' Mexican Light Lager, Baeren Brewery's 'Classic' Dortmunder, Kagiya Brewery's 'BRITISH BITTER' Brown Ale, Yamorido's 'Dayeasy' NZ Pale Ale, PECORA BEER's 'Merino' DDH West Coast IPA, Tsukuda Brewery's 'Phoenix Rice Saison,' all the way to Yokohama Beer’s 'West Side Session IPA' Session IPA, the lineup is arranged so it is easy to choose according to your mood.
There is also an announcement for all-you-can-drink with nine Tokaido beers, and a scratch-card event is being held at Azalea as well. The shop allows outside food to be brought in and also supports takeout. It is a place worth checking out both for a proper pint and for a quick, casual drink.
