Ushiku Brewery's "Gathering the Wind" goes on tap at Meguro THE DODO HOUSE, with eight beers on offer
The beer pub "Craft Beer & Wine THE DODO HOUSE" in Meguro, Tokyo, held business on Tuesday, April 7. An eight-beer lineup was on display, including Ushiku Brewery's new tap, "Gathering the Wind," spanning everything from low-alcohol IPA to lager, IPL, and Hazy IPA.
Hop BroTHE DODO HOUSE in Meguro was open again on Tuesday, April 7 for a make-up business day. And with eight beers lined up, it's the kind of spread day-to-day tap fans can't resist.
MugiWait, it's already rare just to open on a Tuesday, and this was a first-open-in-a-while day too!? If I went on a day like that, I'd basically feel like a regular already!
Hop BroBecause the day before was an unscheduled closing, they ran a recovery service from 17:00 to 24:00. The new tap was Ushiku Brewery's "Gathering the Wind," and it's a low-alcohol IPA.
MugiLow-alcohol but still an IPA? What is that! So it's weak but bitter? That sounds like the scent of a contradiction!
Hop BroThat's the fun part. Even with lighter alcohol, the hop aroma still comes through. It has impressions of white grapes and citrus, and the key point is that it drinks light and juicy.
MugiOhh! Then you could even go in the daytime. And the taps range from lager to Hazy, so the directions are all over the place in the best possible way!
Hop BroExactly. Y.Market's "Super IPA," Kankiku's "Kankiku 99 Lager," Ishinomaki Seabreeze IPL, and even Baeren Schwarz are on tap, so it's a festival of distinctive taps.
MugiMiyazaki Grapefruit White Lager and Yuzu Oroshi Udon Hazy IPA have so much information packed into their names alone! The menu is basically like a tourist brochure!
Hop BroAnd the red-marked beers are down to the last few pours, so the invite to finish them off is part of the fun too. On the bench out front, you can use takeaway cups with no cover charge, so it's great for a quick pop-in for one drink.
MugiSo in Meguro, you can go from Gathering the Wind straight into a tasting lineup! Now I want to change my plans and go with you, hop bro!
