Hop BroAt P2B Haus in Kichijoji, a stout x food festival will be held from April 17 to 19. And it's not just about beer - it's an event that really leans into how it pairs with food.
MugiWhoa! I always thought stout sounded heavy, but if it's designed to be paired with food, that suddenly sounds really interesting! What beers are going to be there?
Hop BroIn the April 18 announcement, they listed 12 draft beers in total. The lineup ranged from Matsumoto Brewery's MATSUMOTO Traditional Bitter to P2B Haus's CTO IPA and Nara Brewing's WALTZ.
MugiWait, bitter, IPA, Helles... the names are all piling up! Do they actually taste that different?
Hop BroExactly. For example, bitter is led by malt aroma and bitterness, Helles is clean and easy to drink, and IPA puts hop aroma at the front. So it's a wide-ranging lineup, and it's fun to pair with food.
MugiOh wow, then Sankt Gallen's Orange Chocolate Stout sounds like something you could enjoy like dessert! Just the name makes me hungry!
Hop BroWhat's clever is that they specially prepared four dishes and made it a pairing-first setup including two stouts. Rich, full-bodied beers like Kurikuro really come alive when paired with something sweet or savory.
MugiKurikuro sounds powerful just from the name alone! But P2B Haus is a 12-tap place, right? That limited-one-day-only feeling makes it even more exciting!
Hop BroThat's right. From domestic standards to limited releases from microbreweries, they line up a wide range, and the fact that they suggest food pairings too is part of what makes P2B Haus special.
MugiIf they have the lunch curry set too, you could stay from day to night! Day drinking to night drinking - this is definitely dangerous in the best way!
Hop BroIf you're going to take your time drinking in Kichijoji, events like this that let you enjoy the harmony between food and beer are the best. Even the time spent wondering which draft to choose while snacking is part of the fun.
MugiYeah, I've decided! Stout in Kichijoji - I definitely want to go! I'll start with the sweeter ones, then finish with something properly bitter!
