Hop BroCraft Beer Server Land, in the basement of Kagurazaka, put out a really strong tap lineup for May 5.
MugiWait, you can do a four-keg tasting in a basement beer pub? That alone sounds fun!
Hop BroThe lineup is Hitachino Nest's White Ale, Moji Port Retro Beer's Weizen, Y. Market Brewing's Over Drive Pale Ale, and Baird's Black Ship Porter, right?
MugiWhoa! So White Ale and Weizen are both about that soft wheat character?
Hop BroExactly. Both are wheat-based, so the mouthfeel is fluffy and soft. Especially with that soft drinking texture coming first, they're well suited to the first pint.
MugiOhhh! Then what's the right thing to drink next? Jumping straight to something black seems like it would suddenly feel heavy!
Hop BroThat's where Y. Market Brewing's Over Drive Pale Ale comes in. It's easy to bring out the hop aroma, and it plays the role of shifting the flow from the gentle opening.
MugiI see, so there really is a flow to the flavors! But Baird's Black Ship Porter at the end seems strong as the finishing dark beer!
Hop BroExactly. Because it leaves a roasted malt aftertaste, drinking it last makes the whole story feel complete. That lingering roasted finish is the nice part.
MugiAnd if they open at 3:00 p.m., isn't having your first drink in Kagurazaka in the afternoon the best?
Hop BroRight. The charm is being able to drink in a calm neighborhood while watching the taps change. Today, I'm already in the mood to go compare them all.
MugiYeah, I want to go too! Start gently with wheat, then end with the porter and savor it slowly. I want to set out on a journey through four kegs!
