Beer Bar Festa Shimokitazawa shares its Aug. 15 tap list
Beer Bar Festa (Shimokitazawa) posted its tap lineup for August 15. The list spans Japanese and imported draft beers, including Minoh, Shiga Kogen, Shonan Beer, T.Y. HARBOR, Revision, and DDC!, with opening at 6 p.m. and last call at 4 a.m. on the weekend.
Hop BroLet’s start with Shimokitazawa today. Festa’s Aug. 15 tap list is out, with 11 draft beers from Japan and overseas, opening at 6 p.m. and going until 4 a.m. on the weekend.
MugiWhat! Open until 4 a.m.!? That’s not one more drink, that’s an all-night mission! Being near the station on the fifth floor makes it feel weirdly convenient and secret at the same time!
Hop BroAnd the lineup is serious. Minoh Hoppy Weizen is on, plus Shiga Kogen IPA ver.2.03 Center of the Universe and its real ale version, and even Compass from Minoh x Yorocco.
MugiHold on, real ale version? What is that! It sounds like the ale has entered the real world or something!
Hop BroBasically, it’s served with naturally developed carbonation in the cask, so you get a softer mouthfeel. Less flashy fizz, more aroma and malt flavor opening up gently.
MugiOhh, nice! So with IPA, pilsner, stout, and even Belgian-style options, this is a great tasting lineup for comparing different styles, right?
Hop BroExactly. The import side is strong too: Revision DIPA, Dieu du Ciel’s Moralite, and DDC!’s Rose de Hibiscus. DIPA means bigger aroma and body, the kind of beer that makes hop nerds grin immediately.
MugiBody? We’re describing beer like it’s doing weight training now! Some taps are nearly gone too, so Shonan Beer’s IPA American Style and Moralite sound like hurry-up orders.
Hop BroAnd it’s built for food pairings too. Kanpai West Coast Pilsner is a clean opener, then you can wander into Hojo’s stout and settle in for the Japan basketball game from 7 p.m.
MugiThat seals it. From first pint to tasting flight, this sounds perfectly planned, and even starting easy with Heartland makes sense. I absolutely want to drink in Shimokitazawa right now!
