Marumugi Taps South Shinshu Beer’s MOONLIGHT IPA and Limited Brown IPA
Tokyo’s craft beer pub Marumugi in Arakicho has announced its October 28 tap list. The lineup features South Shinshu Beer’s MOONLIGHT IPA and a limited American Brown IPA.
Hop BroMarumugi, a craft beer pub in Arakicho, is pouring two limited IPAs on October 28. They sound made for an autumn night!
MugiWhoa, two IPAs? Does that mean they are both just the same bitter beer?
Hop BroThat is the fun part. One is Minami Shinshu Beer’s MOONLIGHT IPA, and the other is a toasty Brown IPA.
MugiI want one already! MOONLIGHT IPA sounds like a beer under moonlight—so romantic!
Hop BroIt is an American IPA from Minami Shinshu Beer in Nagano, at 7.0% ABV. Inspired by the autumn full moon, it bursts with citrus and tropical-fruit aromas.
MugiWhat is ABV? A secret beer society? Is 7.0 percent strong?
Hop BroABV means alcohol by volume. It is a little stronger than many beers, with firm bitterness, richness, and a long, deep finish.
MugiA pale golden beer with a deep finish? So it looks innocent, then delivers a bitterness punch!
Hop BroThen there is the 6.5% ABV Brown IPA: rich brown-ale maltiness, caramel and chocolate toastiness, plus bright IPA hop aroma.
MugiSo maltiness is the grain saying, ‘I am a star too!’ It is a hop-and-malt duet!
Hop BroExactly. Malt brings bread, biscuit, and caramel-like depth. This Brown IPA is big on aroma and body.
MugiMarumugi is walkable from Yotsuya-sanchome, on the second floor of Ichibankan Building, right? At ¥1,300 large or ¥1,000 small, I want to compare both!
Hop BroA bright, moonlit MOONLIGHT IPA followed by a deep, roasty Brown IPA—two beers for autumn nights. We have to go to Marumugi.
MugiDeal! We will toast under the moon, then linger over the brown ale notes. I want a beer now!
