Hop BroToday's topic is Beer Pub Kirigirisu in Takashimadaira, Tokyo. They've got a tap list centered on IPAs that's getting pretty interesting.
MugiWait, an IPA festival in Takashimadaira? That sounds like a quiet neighborhood, but suddenly it's like a secret base for beer lovers!
Hop BroExactly. The headline is Ushitora Brewery's `Lime-Infused Brut IPA`. Even at 7% alcohol, it drinks light, finishes dry in true Brut IPA fashion, and then lime nuances come through.
MugiBrut? What's that? When you say 'dry finish,' it makes the beer sound like some high-end toast machine!
Hop BroPut simply, it's a style that keeps the sweetness down and pushes the IPA toward a crisper edge. So it goes down easily, while still delivering bright aromatics, with the lime giving it extra lift.
MugiI see! Then maybe the next one to drink is BrewDog's `Punk IPA`. You see it in bottles and cans, but drinking it on tap feels a bit special!
Hop BroThat's the good part. Draft `Punk IPA` is a staple, but it is strong as a comparison point, and in a place like Kirigirisu it stands out like a star attraction.
MugiBut the bottled Heller Brewery rauchbier was sold out, right? I kinda wanted to try that smoky beer!
Hop BroYeah, SCHLENKERLA RAUCH BIER Marzen was out, but Denver Beer Co.'s `Incredible Pedal IPA` came in instead, so in the end the IPA range got much wider.
MugiNice! With an IPA-centered lineup, and dishes like grilled green onions and Cajun chicken, you've got to think about the order while drinking!
Hop BroExactly. It feels like a night where beer is the star, and you want to start with the Brut IPA, then move to the Punk IPA, and finish with one more IPA.
MugiWow, just reading it makes my throat work up a thirst! I want a drink in Takashimadaira right now, and if I went to Kirigirisu I'd probably end up staying forever!

The standout draft on this day is Ushitora Brewery's `Lime-Infused Brut IPA`. At 7% ABV, it is described as light on the palate, with the dry finish characteristic of a Brut IPA layered with a lime nuance. Also appearing is BrewDog's `Punk IPA`, said to be rare on draft.
