Ant'n Bee Ryudocho lines up 12 taps for its August 23 Sunday service
The Roppongi-area beer pub announced its Sunday service for August 23, with 12 taps spanning session hazy IPA, pilsner, Kölsch, saison, cider, sour, and porter from breweries including Tired Hands, Fire Stone, and Brasserie Knot.
Hop BroHere's the thing: the Sunday tap list announced by Antonby Ryudomachi for Antonby Roppongi looks stacked, with 12 draft pours plus cider, which absolutely calls for a game plan.
MugiWait, 2pm to 10pm means we can start in the afternoon and still pace ourselves? My Sunday just got dangerously busy!
Hop BroThe anchor beer is Crushable Church, a Session Hazy IPA from Tired Hands. Then Fire Stone's Pivo Pils and Swan Lake's Nagi show up right behind it, so the opening lineup is already strong.
MugiHold on, Session Hazy IPA sounds like a magic spell. Does it mean anything besides 'probably delicious'?
Hop BroIt does. Think light but aromatic. 'Session' means easier to keep drinking, and 'Hazy' points to a soft, juicy texture with gentler bitterness.
MugiOhh, so Pivo Pils and Nagi are the crisp team? And Brasserie Knot's RIVER is a saison too? This tap list has better casting than some TV shows.
Hop BroExactly, it's a ladder of flavors. Pils is sharp, Nagi the Kolsch is gentle and polished, and RIVER brings that airy yeast character, so the contrast shows up nicely as you move through the list.
MugiAnd HI Wire's Cooler Nights says what is WCIPA? IPA people really do love abbreviations like they're studying for an exam.
Hop BroWCIPA means West Coast IPA, basically clean snapping bitterness. Next to Smog City's Dynamic Pressure on the hazy side, you can feel the difference fast, and Fauve's white ale plus Garage's porter Locker widen the range even more.
MugiThat is ridiculous in the best way, and cider is included too! With Cogg's KOTOKOTO2024#3 and Moriyamaen's Tekikaka, even the 'beer break' sounds like another main event.
Hop BroAnd with KOKO's Shio Lemon Sour and Minoh's Grapefruits Sour, the calm basement setting makes the whole menu work with food or just on its own. I already want a pint.
MugiI'm sold. I want to start with Pivo Pils and land on cider or Locker. I want this now so badly that I need Sunday to come back immediately!
