Hop BroThe Grafton Beer Pub & Restaurant in Gotanda has posted its tap list for April 1, with 14 draft beers on offer. It mixes classics with domestic craft, and just looking at it makes your throat dry out.
MugiWhoa, 14 kinds? With that many on tap, I feel like I’d be full just from reading the menu!
Hop BroAnd on top of Guinness, Heineken, Hoegaarden, and Magners Cider, it’s strong because it has a solid lineup of domestic breweries too. Sankt Gallen, Uchu Brewing, Coedo, Riot, U.B.P, and Great Dane are all here.
MugiWhat is that? What makes a “real ale” real? That label is way too intense. It sounds like the beer might start walking over on its own.
Hop BroGood question. The key is a natural level of carbonation. It’s finished without forcing in too much gas, so the aroma and malt character come through more gently. That’s the right term for beers like Sankt Gallen’s YOKOHAMA XPA Real Ale and Ikari Brewing’s Irish Red.
MugiOhh, so Uchu Brewing’s Deluxe Citra sounds like it would burst with aroma too! Just hearing “Citra” makes me feel like jumping into a citrus forest!
Hop BroExactly. If you want to enjoy hop-driven citrus character, that one is a really good choice. And since they also have hazy styles like Hazy Celebration, it’s fun to compare the juiciness and aroma side by side.
MugiWait, and it’s a football pub in the basement? If they’re showing Machida Zelvia vs. FC Tokyo starting at 7 p.m., then the excuse to drink is already complete!
Hop BroExactly. Being able to drink while watching the match is one of The Grafton’s strengths. Even on a rainy day, you can settle in downstairs and enjoy beer and soccer together.
MugiAnd with raw oysters, buffalo wings, and all that food, it has everything you want for drinking and eating! This is the kind of place where you go in planning to have just one more, and then you never stop.
