Hop BroToday’s star is the beer pub taki in Sakuragaokacho, Shibuya. The Tap List has 3 beers, and the tap information for today, April 25, is up.
MugiWhoa, only three beers and I’m already excited! A one-day rotating draft lineup sounds so special.
Hop BroThe one that really stands out is Nagisa Beer’s "American Wheat" from Wakayama. As an American Wheat Ale, it’s the kind of beer where the softness of wheat comes forward.
MugiAmerican, but wheat? Wait, what does the sweetness of wheat malt taste like? Kind of fluffy and bready?
Hop BroExactly, that’s the interesting part. It has the gentle bitterness and aroma from Czech Saaz hops, along with soft sweetness and tartness. It finishes crisply, so it’s not tiring to drink.
MugiOhhh! That sounds super easy to keep drinking. A crisp finish really does seem perfect for a hot day!
Hop BroThe other two are worth watching too: Yamaguchi Jibeer’s "Yamaguchi no Mugi" and HIGHBURY x Baeren’s "Onmenburoi." It’s a lineup that really shows Japanese character, and I think the tasting comparison will be a lot of fun.
MugiWow, just the names make me want to taste them side by side! Can you really tell the differences in the malt character that clearly?
Hop BroYou can. The body and hop expression change, after all. And taki also centers on sake, so it’s strong because it pairs well with seasonal ingredients and fresh fish.
MugiThat’s almost unfair, being so close to Shibuya Station! If I can choose between beer and sake depending on my mood, then I guess there’s no choice but to go today!
