Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-mitsuke Branch Announces Five New Taps
Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-mitsuke Branch published today's tap list on May 28. Five newly tapped beers are now available, including a collaboration with Yatsugatake Beer TOUCHDOWN, plus beers from Ise Kadoya Beer, Totopia Brewery, Tokoshie Brewing, and HIMITSU BEER.
Hop BroThese five new taps in Akasaka-mitsuke are pretty bold. The tap list Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-mitsuke Branch posted on May 28 runs from collaborations to juicy styles all at once.
MugiWhoa! Five labels all at once? That much turnover? Just looking at the tap list already has me thinking about the order I'm going to drink them in today!
Hop BroFirst up is the three-way collaboration from Yatsugatake Beer TOUCHDOWN, Craft Beer Scissors Akihabara, and Craft Beer Server Land: `102 × 69 Roggen Roll / Rye Helles`. Since it's a rye helles, it's interesting that it brings in rye notes instead of wheat.
MugiA rye helles? What is that? Rye notes sounds like bread talk, not beer talk. This is getting stylish all of a sudden!
Hop BroThat's right. A rye helles is a German-style lager-leaning beer, and its calling card is a clean, toasty character. And I like the playful touch in the collaboration name, 'Roggen Roll.'
MugiNice! Then next I want Ise Kadoya Beer's Sour IPA! Strawberry and raspberry sounds like it's going to be sour and sweet at the same time, and my mouth is already imagining it!
Hop BroThat's a really smart pick. It has fruit-driven acidity, so it's easy to drink even on a hot day, and pairing that with IPA hop character gives it a sharper edge.
MugiAnd then Totopia Brewery's DDH Hazy Double IPA! The name alone sounds strong, and then there's 'Diffusiophilia' in the name too - the beer is practically being treated like a research subject!
Hop BroTotopia's naming is part of the fun. DDH means it uses a lot of dry hopping, so you can expect a rich hop aroma, and because it's hazy, the mouthfeel is softer too.
MugiI also want Tokoshie Brewing's Ameagari / IPA, and just the name of HIMITSU BEER's 'Citrus Kaiju Sea-Ma-kun' already makes me laugh! And with sakura trout instead of sakura masu? There's just too much going on!
Hop BroThis kind of range for side-by-side tasting is what makes a place like this fun. They have everything from something light to something with a solid body, so being able to choose according to your mood in Akasaka-mitsuke is great.
MugiAll right, let's go hunt for today's pint! Let's start with the collaboration rye helles for a toast, then chase it with the Sour IPA and the hazy beer. That sounds amazing!
