Marumugi, a beer pub in Arakicho, Shinjuku, has published its July 4 draft lineup. The five beers on offer span a cold IPA, a NZ-hop IPA, a wheat beer, a coffee porter, and an amber ale, with pours from COEDO, TWO RABBITS BREWING, Yokohama Beer, Notori Brewing, and Swan Lake Beer.
Hop BroJibiru Bar Marumugi in Arakicho just dropped a five-tap lineup for July 4, and it looks seriously strong.
MugiWait, from Cold IPA to coffee porter? That's not a lineup, that's a roller coaster!
Hop BroA large is 1,200 yen+ and a small is 900 yen+, and COEDO's Ao-AO- is a crisp Cold IPA, perfect for that first summer pint.
MugiWhat even is a Cold IPA? Did the IPA just hang out in front of the air conditioner?
Hop BroThink of it as an IPA with lager-like crispness. The hop aroma pops, but the finish stays clean and sharp.
Hop BroThen TWO RABBITS BREWING's KIWI IPA goes full NZ hops, with tropical aromas bursting right out of the glass.
MugiSo that means hops from New Zealand? Wow, this beer really went on an overseas business trip!
Hop BroExactly. And Yokohama Beer's Seya no Komugi Beer is a gentle Belgian white, brewed with locally grown Yokohama wheat for a soft, easy flavor.
MugiHold on, Nutori Brewing's Hyakki no Kuro is a summer coffee porter, and Swan Lake Beer's Amber Swan Ale brings firm bitterness? I already want a second round!
Hop BroAt Marumugi, just a three-minute walk from Yotsuya-sanchome, this is the kind of day where choosing between hops and malt becomes half the fun.
MugiI'm sold. Ao-AO- first, Hyakki no Kuro to finish, and now my pub crawl plan is complete!
Hop BroThat's the move. KIWI IPA and Seya no Komugi Beer will definitely sneak in too. This is one of those drink-everything days.
