Craft beer bar Marumugi in Arakicho, Shinjuku Ward, has published its beer menu for March 28. Featuring five labels from Y.MARKET BREWING, Minoh Beer, Repubrew, and Minami Shinshu Beer, the lineup offers a broad range of styles, from dark beers to IPAs and fruit beers.
Hop BroShinjuku's Arakicho lineup of five draft beers is out, and Craft Beer Bar Marumugi has put up its menu for March 28. Getting Y.MARKET, Minoh, Repubrew, and Minami Shinshu Beer all together at once is pretty exciting.
MugiWhoa, all five labels are different styles!? If they're lined up like that, just looking at the menu would make my brain jiggle!
Hop BroAnd the lead beer, Decorean, is a 7.0% dark beer from Y.MARKET BREWING. The way it layers citrus over a black base and brings out an orange-peel-chocolate kind of expression is really sharp.
MugiOrange peel chocolate, like candied orange sweets!? A beer doing that sounds way too magical!
Hop BroMore like when the toasty aroma of roasted malt meets citrusy hops, it gives off a dark but bright feel. It's the kind of beer that stays light enough while leading with aroma.
MugiOhhh! Then I want to try Minoh Beer’s MUGICHA BITTER too! With a name like barley tea, it already sounds gentle~.
Hop BroThis one really is a gentle bitter with toasty character front and center. At 4.5%, it's easy to drink without getting tired, so it's good as a first glass or as a reset in between.
MugiThey've got Osaru IPA too!? It looks like it has a super hoppy face, which is a little scary, but I want to drink it!
Hop BroThat one is one of Minoh Beer’s classic hop-forward pours. On top of that, FONIO BEER has the fanciness of ancient grain, and Apple Hop Kougyoku Ver. has the sharp acidity of Kougyoku apples, so it's nice that you can swing sideways depending on your mood.
MugiThis is totally a lineup where you can travel from dark beers to fruit beers! If it's only a three-minute walk from Yotsuya-Sanchome, it's the kind of place where you stop in after work thinking you'll have just one, and then everything starts sounding tempting.
Hop BroIt's open from 18:00 to 24:00, and closed on Tuesdays and public holidays. Tonight feels like the kind of evening where you'd want to go to Marumugi and take your time comparing dark, bitter, IPA, and apple beers.
MugiYeah, yeah, I want to go taste them all tonight! I'd start with MUGICHA BITTER, while Hop-nii probably goes straight for Decorean and grins away~!
