Marumugi in Shinjuku’s Arakicho posts an August 15 craft beer lineup
Beer pub Jibeer Bar Marumugi in Arakicho, Shinjuku, Tokyo, published its August 15 craft beer lineup. The list includes five beers from Ise Kadoya Brewery, Minoh Beer, Yokohama Beer, and Ushitora Brewery, with large pours at JPY 1,200+ and small pours at JPY 900+.
Hop BroArakicho's Jibeer Bar Marumugi has a seriously good tap list for August 15.
MugiWait, five beers today already sounds impossible to choose from! What’s on?
Hop BroYou’ve got Isekadoya Beer’s Yorimichi no Lager, Minoh Beer’s Domestic Peach Weizen Hayase Ver., Yokohama Beer’s Alt, Ushitora’s HOP SNIPEER IPA, and Meyer Lemon Radler.
MugiWhoa, Peach Weizen already sounds like summer won. Weizen is that soft wheaty style, right?
Hop BroWeizen style uses wheat malt, so the texture gets softer and rounder. Then the early-season peach aroma lands on top, which makes it feel super fresh.
MugiHuh! Then what is a radler? The name sounds like a lemon bicycle!
Hop BroThat’s the fun part, Meyer Lemon Radler is a light, sweet-tart refresher. It’s 4.0%, basically fruit-beer territory in the article, and perfect for hot weather.
MugiWhat is that, dangerously crushable? And if a large is 1,200 yen plus a little extra and a small is 900 yen plus a little extra, my one-drink plan is already collapsing.
Hop BroIf you want the full range, HOP SNIPEER IPA gives you that West Coast IPA snap, while Yokohama Beer’s Alt brings toasted malt and gentle depth. From easy lager to big hop character, the spread is clean.
MugiThen it’s settled, one round in Arakicho and I get to seriously debate whether to start with peach or charge straight into the IPA!
