Hop BroToday, let’s raise a glass to LIVIN' LARGE BEER & GALLERY and its beer story from Itabashi.
MugiWhat? A beer pub in Higashi-Nagasaki is sharing beers rooted in Itabashi?
Hop BroThe star is TOKYO ALEWORKS, a brewery with a taproom in Itabashi Cask Village and more than ten house beers on tap.
MugiMore than ten? I might still be choosing when they close! Tell me about Itabashi Hiil Lager first.
Hop BroIt’s a German-style pilsner with a clean, refreshing flavor and an easy, lively finish—plus a name that nods to Itabashi’s beer history.
MugiPilsner sounds like a magic spell. What exactly is a German-style pilsner?
Hop BroSimply put, it’s a crisp, clear, highly drinkable lager. It uses bottom-fermenting yeast, brewed cool and patiently.
MugiBottom-fermenting? I pictured beer brewing under the floor! So what about Straight On Brew Light Lager?
Hop BroIt’s an American lager collaboration with Break Edge Beerworks, WCB, and Joe D. Foster: a light body and sharp, clean finish that sounds perfect with yakitori.
MugiAnd the nearby yakitori shop celebrates its 50th year! I want to savor a glass with local history at LIVIN' LARGE right now.
