Hop BroToday’s topic is the March 16 tap update. Beer Cafe Gambrinus in Kokubunji added three new beers on tap!
MugiWhat! Three new beers tapped? That’s way too serious for a Monday!
Hop BroThe highlights are Shiga Kogen Helles!?, Nomcraft’s Armadillo Outlaw, and Ogna’s India Pale Ale, giving a clean flow from lager-leaning to IPA.
MugiWhat is that! What kind of thing is a Helles? Even the “!?” in the name feels extra quirky!
Hop BroA Helles is a German-style lager with a gentle malt character, basically that clean, bready barley note. It’s milder in bitterness than an IPA and easy to get into.
MugiOhhh! So the first pint is that, and then you charge into a hop-forward IPA next!
Hop BroExactly! The existing taps also include 69IPA, On My Way to the Moon, Shimanami Cat’s hard seltzer, and even stout, so it’s a lineup with a wildly wide range.
MugiFrom sweet-ish to dark!? Having a hard seltzer and a stout on the same day is such a fun emotional roller coaster!
Hop BroAnd it’s a calm spot on the 6th floor of a building near the south exit, open 17:00-25:00, with Czech-style beers in the Coming Soon list too, so it really feels like a beer comparison paradise.
MugiIt’s decided! Tonight we win from the first pint at Gambrinus. Hop bro, come with me!
