BEER OLYN Opens a New Keg from Taiwan's Typhoon Brewing, Serving 10 Taps in Kagurazaka
Kagurazaka beer pub BEER OLYN has tapped a new keg from Taiwan's Typhoon Brewing. Six beers with very different personalities are lined up, ranging from jasmine, sansho, high-mountain oolong tea, osmanthus, and pomelo blossom to lemon and sea salt, and an importer visit is also planned for the day.
Hop BroAt BEER OLYN in Kagurazaka, Taiwan's Typhoon Brewing is getting a big keg tap. And with 10 taps on deck, it's a pretty aggressive lineup tonight.
MugiWhat, 10 taps? That's too many! That's the kind of happy confusion where you don't know what to drink first!
Hop BroThe highlight is these six. Fangcao Jasmine Ale layers jasmine over Citra and Mosaic for a classic. The floral aroma floats up beautifully, making it the perfect gateway to the more perfumed side.
MugiJasmine and hops together!? A flower-scented beer sounds like it'll make you feel like you wandered into a garden when you drink it!
Hop BroAnd the new releases are hot too. The Konome Sansho Ale made with grape sansho from Wakayama has a razor-sharp sansho lift that really wakes up your mouth.
MugiSansho in beer!? Made with grape sansho makes it feel less like a fried-chicken sidekick and more like the star!
Hop BroThere's also the Yamuniji Oolong Tea Ale made with high-mountain tea from Lishan, and the Kinfei Osmanthus Ale scented with osmanthus, so the layers of aroma feel very Taiwanese.
MugiTea in beer too, that's amazing! When you say layers of aroma, it suddenly sounds sophisticated, but the drinker just ends up smiling!
Hop BroAnd tonight, @monsoonmade is visiting around 8 to 9 p.m. There's a talk about Taiwanese beer and even bingo. Drink, learn, and win - it's a really strong event package.
MugiThere's bingo too!? A night where you can drink and learn is more exciting than a class observation day!
Hop BroIt isn't just kegs either. Kyoto Brewing's Olion, Hazy IPA, and cider are all lined up too, so both draft and bottles are part of the fun, which is so BEER OLYN. I want to raise a glass in Kagurazaka right now.
MugiYeah, I want to drink already! While toasting in Kagurazaka, I want to snack on the jasmine, the sansho, and the tea, all of it!
