Four draft beers introduced by APOLLO company, featuring Yokohama Beer and Sapporo
The beer pub APOLLO company on Noge Yanagi-dori in Yokohama introduces its in-house “today’s draft beer” lineup and recommended food. The selection features Yokohama Beer’s Golden Ale, Nagisa Beer’s IPA, Sapporo’s Shirohonoka and Edelpils, making it a lineup you can enjoy with a meal.
Hop BroToday, APOLLO company on Yokohama's Noge Yanagi-dori is interesting. Just looking at today's draft lineup inside the shop makes the first drink feel like it's already out to make you choose.
MugiWow, four draft beers with that much variety? Just seeing the names has my brain buzzing!
Hop BroYokohama Beer's Golden Ale, Nagisa Beer's IPA, Shirohonoka, and Edelpils make a lineup that balances local and classic styles really well.
MugiWhoa, Golden Ale sounds glittery, but what does it actually taste like? It sounds like some kind of golden hero!
Hop BroIt has a light malt character and a crisp finish, so it's perfect as a first drink. From there, if you move to the IPA, the hop definition really stands out.
MugiSo that's what hop definition means! It feels like a grown-up map, and suddenly beer seems smart!
Hop BroAnd the food is strong too. With Pork Carnitas TACOS, Cajun Shrimp and Chorizo TACOS, and even French fries, there are too many reasons to drink.
MugiWhat, French fries with cheese sour cream sauce too!? Isn't that the kind of thing that disappears the moment you put it next to beer?
Hop BroThat's the kind of place it is. It's easy to use late into the night in Sakuragicho and Noge, so it works both as a starting point for bar-hopping and for a night where you settle in and stay awhile.
MugiI'm completely sold! Tonight I want to start with a first drink in Noge and toast with Golden Ale and tacos!
APOLLO company in Hanasakicho, Naka Ward, Yokohama, has posted its recommendations for the day on Instagram. As you would expect from a beer pub tucked into Noge Yanagi-dori, it is a post centered on beer while also showing how well the food pairs with it.
Today's Draft Beers
The lineup introduced this time has four beers with clearly distinct personalities.
- Yokohama Noge Beer ~Golden Ale~ (Yokohama Beer / Kanagawa)
- India Pale Ale (Nagisa Beer / Wakayama)
- Shirohonoka (Sapporo Beer)
- Edelpils (Sapporo Beer)
In addition to a local Yokohama label, the lineup also includes an IPA and classic lager-style choices, so it works for people chasing aroma as well as those looking for a clean finish. It also makes for an easy progression: start lightly with the Golden Ale, enjoy the hop definition of the India Pale Ale, then reset your palate with Shirohonoka or Edelpils.
Pairings with Food
The post also introduces Pork Carnitas TACOS, Cajun Shrimp and Chorizo TACOS, Pulled Pork Sandwich, and French Fries with Cheese Sour Cream Sauce. With a food lineup built around beer, there is plenty of fun in building a meal while working your way through the tap list.
