NANBU CRAFT BREWERY Pours U.S. IPA Trademark Codebreaker
NANBU CRAFT BREWERY in Morioka is highlighting the U.S. IPA Trademark Codebreaker alongside nukazuke-marinated beef kalbi. The tap list also recently welcomed Ushitora’s Schwarzbier, a beer described as “bitter-looking, not bitter, slightly bitter.”
Hop BroAt NANBU CRAFT BREWERY in Hachimancho, Morioka, a mighty beer-and-meat pairing has arrived!
MugiWhoa! I usually just order a draft with meat, so what’s the pairing?
Hop BroThe stars are U.S. beef short ribs pickled in rice bran and the American IPA Trademark Codebreaker.
MugiRice-bran-pickled ribs with an IPA?! Won’t that bitter beer overpower the meat?
Hop BroAn IPA shines with hop aroma and bitterness; this one is bold enough for rich meat. It cuts through that lovely fatty flavor.
MugiOoh! Rice-bran aroma, rich beef, and hoppy IPA... a party in my mouth!
Hop BroThey’ve also recently tapped Ushitra’s “Not Bitter-Looking, Slightly Bitter Schwarz”.
MugiWhat kind of contradictory name is that? I need a bitter-or-not meeting with a pint!
Hop BroSchwarz is a dark beer with roasty malt character. A side-by-side tasting with the IPA makes their aromas and bitterness easy to compare.
MugiThey have pale ale, stout, and weizen too—amazing! Fried chicken sold out quickly, so check the food and taps before heading to Morioka for a toast!
NANBU CRAFT BREWERY, a brewpub in Morioka, Iwate, is featuring beers suited to its meat-focused dishes.
The featured food is nukazuke-marinated U.S. beef kalbi. The dish is recommended with Trademark Codebreaker, a U.S. IPA whose hop aroma and bitterness should stand up well to the richness of grilled beef. It is a pairing designed for drinkers who enjoy a more assertive beer alongside savory meat.
The post also notes that the nukazuke-marinated fried chicken sold out quickly, suggesting strong interest in the restaurant’s meat dishes. Guests looking for a specific item may want to check availability before visiting.
A recently tapped beer is Ushitora’s “苦そうで苦くない ちょっと苦いシュバルツ,” roughly, “Schwarzbier that looks bitter, isn’t bitter, and is a little bitter.” Its dark-beer character offers a contrast to the hop-forward IPA, making the two beers an appealing comparison. Pairing them with the restaurant’s food can bring out different aspects of both the dishes and the beers.
NANBU CRAFT BREWERY also produces a regular lineup including Pale Ale, Stout, Weizen, and IPA. At this Morioka brewpub, visitors can enjoy brewery-made beer with nukazuke meat dishes and curry. Tap availability and food service may change, so checking with the venue before visiting is recommended.
