BEER OLYN in Kagurazaka Taps Three No Boat Brewing Beers on Their Japan Debut
The beer pub BEER OLYN in Kagurazaka, Tokyo, announced in a post on April 5 that U.S.-based No Boat Brewing is making its Japan debut. In addition to Sticky Watters, Mozzie, and Snoqualmie Maybe, it also introduced the venue's current taps.
Hop BroAt BEER OLYN in Kagurazaka, No Boat Brewing has made its Japan debut. Sticky Watters, Mozzie, and Snoqualmie Maybe are on tap, so the lineup is seriously hot.
MugiWhoa! Just hearing three Japan debut beers makes it feel extra special! Being able to drink them in Kagurazaka makes me want to go so badly!
Hop BroFirst is Sticky Watters, a TDH Hazy DIPA. At 8.5% ABV, it hits with rich hazy character and big aromas like mango, passion fruit, and white grape.
MugiWhat even is TDH? Triple dry hop means adding hops three times? This is starting to feel like a brewery tour!
Hop BroExactly. It's a method where hops are added in multiple stages after fermentation to push the aroma forward. Think of it as a technique for piling on aroma. The juicy character comes to the front more than the bitterness.
MugiI see! So what about Mozzie? Just the name West Coast IPA already sounds crisp!
Hop BroMozzie uses a great combination of Mosaic and Amarillo. The grapefruit and lemon citrus notes are layered with a subtle pine touch, and at 5.7% ABV it's easy to drink too.
MugiWow, it sounds like the bitterness is nicely balanced! An IPA that isn't too heavy is exactly what you want for a second beer.
Hop BroAnd Snoqualmie Maybe is a West Coast Pale Ale. At 5.3% ABV, it has a clean structure with Citra-driven orange notes and a dry finish, so it's the kind of beer that goes down smoothly.
MugiHuh! If it's called clear and easy-drinking, it sounds perfect for your first beer, but also a little dangerous because you could keep going for several rounds!
Hop BroWhat's more, BEER OLYN's current tap list is packed with everything from IPA to cider. With Kyoto Brewing, Dieu Du Ciel!, and Tekikakashi Cider on the board, you can do a little beer tour right inside the shop.
MugiThey open from 2:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. on Sundays, and a relaxed drink in Kagurazaka sounds incredible... At this point, I want to go with Hop-nii and feel like I'm tasting every style!
Hop BroIf that's the plan, start with Sticky Watters, settle in with Mozzie, and finish with Snoqualmie Maybe. It's the kind of lineup that makes you want to taste and compare them right away.
MugiDeal! I want to toast in Kagurazaka and savor No Boat Brewing's Japan debut!
