Hop BroAMEKAZE TACHIKAWA in Tachikawa dropped a post on April 4 announcing a big haul of guest beers. Just looking at a shelf like that makes your mouth water.
MugiWhoa! Getting new arrivals and restocks all at once is so exciting! I'm panicking because I don't know what to drink first!
Hop BroFirst up is PIRONO BEER's dark lager, Kuroro. It's dark, but not too heavy, and its sharp roasted character is the appeal.
MugiSo a dark lager means it's bitter because it's black? Does sharp roasted character mean it tastes kind of like coffee?
Hop BroExactly. It has the toasty aroma of roasted malt, and the bitterness is nicely balanced. PIRONO BEER also had a fun lineup to compare side by side, with Helles, Saison, sinne, and Kokyuu.
MugiThat sounds amazing! Putting Helles and Saison side by side would make my brain spin from the flavor differences!
Hop BroAnd on top of that, they had VERTERE's Lupulus Eugenia, Hansharo Beer's New World Kölsch lineup, REPUBREW's IPA and Brut IPA, plus BREWDOG and THORNBRIDGE, so a broad range of styles came together at once.
MugiWhoa, they have Kölsch, IPA, Hazy, and even stout? Being able to choose by mood is super considerate.
Hop BroExactly. If you want something light, go with Kölsch; if you want to take your time, Hazy or IPA works; and to finish, something rich like HARVIESTOUN's Old Engine Oil is a good choice.
MugiWe have to hold a What Are We Drinking Today? meetup in Tachikawa! I'll start with Kuroro, and finish with another dark one!
