Sekimachi Cellar Welcomes New UCHU BREWING Arrivals: Labyrinth 002 and GENESIS 002
A new UCHU BREWING shipment has arrived at Sekimachi Cellar, the beer pub in Sekimachi-Higashi, Nerima Ward, Tokyo. This time, the featured arrivals are two barrel-aged beers, "Labyrinth 002" and "GENESIS 002." Both are beers with the depth that comes from aging, the kind you want to enjoy slowly.
Hop BroThe Sekimachi Cellar new arrivals in Nerima Ward’s Sekimachi-Higashi are here, and this time it’s two barrel-aged beers from UCHU BREWING. They’re the kind you drink slowly, and they should really hit dark-beer fans hard.
MugiWhoa! Just two beers, and they sound that intense? I always thought guest beer meant something more lively and casual!
Hop BroThat’s what makes it interesting. The first one, Labyrinth 002, is a black barley wine with an ABV of 13.0%. It’s a blend aged for more than two years in Heaven Hill and Jim Beam barrels.
MugiWait, aged for more than two years? That’s basically like a wine cellar! Barley wine sounds like a beer, but is it wine?
Hop BroThe name is confusing, but it’s a beer with incredible malt richness. Dark caramel is layered with fruitiness like plums and raisins, giving it a deep black color and a sweet, lingering finish.
MugiOhhh! Then what’s the second one, GENESIS 002, like? That name alone sounds strong, like I’m about to see the universe!
Hop BroThis one is an imperial stout at 12.0% ABV. It’s a blend of base beers aged for up to 32 months in rum barrels, Heaven Hill barrels, and Buffalo Trace barrels, and it has aromas like chocolate truffles plus a roasted character.
MugiWhat! The barrel-blending skill is incredible! And a stout that smells like chocolate truffles? That’s basically dessert!
Hop BroExactly, and it’s especially suited to drinking in a calm beer pub like Sekimachi Cellar. The right way to enjoy it is to follow the aroma and savor the aftertaste little by little.
MugiThat feels like a quiet reward. Instead of chugging something lively, I’d want to sit with this properly tonight.
Hop BroBottom line, UCHU BREWING’s two rich dark beers are must-check items. Labyrinth 002 brings deep sweetness, GENESIS 002 brings barrel-aged depth, and tasting them side by side should make for an excellent night.
MugiYeah, these are definitely tonight’s drink candidates! I want to sip them slowly at Sekimachi Cellar while sniffing the aroma!
