Hop BroBar Malt Road in Kanda has Summer Gift vol. II on tap right now, and the British-leaning draft lineup is exactly my kind of scene.
MugiWhat! A pub pouring its own original house beer? That is some full-power main-character energy!
Hop BroAnd the featured pour is Tribute Cornish Pale Ale from St.Austell Brewery, a pale ale at 4.2% ABV with a really gentle drinkability.
MugiWhoa, but what does Maris Otter based even mean? Did you just switch into secret brewer language?
Hop BroIt’s a classic British malt, and it gives that biscuit-like sweetness that makes the beer feel warm and grounded.
MugiNo way, and then you add orange-like citrus aroma on top of that? So it has a cozy team and a fresh team!
Hop BroExactly, plus floral notes, balanced bitterness, and a dry finish that snaps everything clean at the end.
MugiAnd today’s taps have Fuller’s London Pride, Chimay Red, and Minoh too? This today's tap list is basically a passport!
Hop BroRight, and with Wodhi from Minamiaizu, a Helles, and Sibeeria from Czechia, the British-led lineup still has a killer supporting cast.
MugiHold on, it’s not just beer? They also have potato and sausage quiche? My snack brain is already seated at the bar!
Hop BroThen stack on house-made sausage rolls, hanger steak, octopus carpaccio, and duck-orange salad, and you get a slow-building pint you can really settle into.
MugiThat’s it, I want a Kanda pint tonight so bad. And Hop Bro, no sneaking the first toast without me!
