Kyoto's Bakushu Yumeyomi puts FLOWER, SPIRAL, and sweet potato stout on tap for April 27
The beer pub Bakushu Yumeyomi in Gion Shijo, Kyoto, has announced its tap list for Monday, April 27, from 5:30 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. Ahead of Golden Week, it is shifting toward a refreshing lineup, with five beers ranging from Belgian white to classic IPA, dark beer, and Yebisu.
Hop BroKyoto's Gion Shijo spot, Bakushu Yumeyomi, has put out its draft lineup for Monday, April 27. The balance of lightness and drinkability heading into Golden Week is really nice.
MugiWhat! Reservations aren't required? Being able to just walk in and have a drink is way too nice for beginners!
Hop BroExactly. And the star of the day is Brasserie Knot / FLOWER. It's a Belgian white that's gently fruity and finishes crisp and refreshing.
MugiWhat's a Belgian white? Kind of like a relative of white beer?
Hop BroPretty close. It's a style that uses wheat and tends to bring out spice-like and citrus notes. FLOWER is said to be one of the brewery's standard recommendations, and it's especially easy to drink.
MugiI see! Then I'm curious about Nara Brewing / SPIRAL too! Can beer really have that much melon-like aroma?
Hop BroIt can. SPIRAL is an American Belgo-style beer, and as the temperature rises the hop aroma really opens up. In other words, it's a beer where the changing aroma with temperature is part of the fun.
MugiWait, it spirals with temperature? My brain can't keep up, this feels like math class!
Hop BroDon't overthink it. If you prefer dark beers, there's the sweet potato stout, and if you want the classic route, there's Minoh Beer's Osaru IPA, with YEBISU to finish. And with the salsiccia sold out and sudden croquettes on the menu, that's quite the event.
MugiThis is basically a full Gion-drinks course! If they're open every day for Golden Week starting April 29, there's no reason not to go, Hop bro!
Hop BroExactly, they're scheduled to be open every day during Golden Week, so it's perfect for a day when you want a quiet drink. If there's cucumber nukazuke, potatoes, and simmered sawara roe, I'm going to have another one.
MugiYeah, strong food too is unbeatable! Starting with FLOWER and finishing with Osaru IPA sounds perfect, I want to toast right now!
