MugiWhat, an oyster fair? So it’s basically all things oyster at a beer spot?
Hop BroExactly. For lunch they’ve got oyster biryani, Japanese-style dashi oyster curry, and even oysters steamed with kelp and sake.
MugiBiryani sounds suddenly advanced! Is that kind of like spiced rice?
Hop BroPretty much. They pair oysters with fragrant spiced rice, so the umami synergy is incredible.
MugiWhoa, I’m curious! So what beers are there? The perfect beer for oysters has to be the star, right?
Hop BroThe highlight is the Oyster Stout made with oysters. It makes sense that it’s already getting popular.
MugiStout makes me think dark and heavy, but how does it change with oysters in it?
Hop BroIt brings out the oyster’s mineral character and adds depth, while the roasted malt’s toasty aroma comes through too, so it becomes a team-up of sea and roast.
MugiI see, and with all-day service plus takeout, and bottles and growlers both supported, that’s way too convenient!
Hop BroThey even have a rainy-day service, so this really makes you want to go in hungry and go after oysters and dark beer together.
MugiYeah, just reading it makes me hungry! Now I want to eat and drink in Koenji right away!
And Beer on March 26
The brewpub "And Beer" in Koenji Kita announced its business hours for March 26 as all-day service from 11:30 to 22:00, lunch from 11:30 to 15:00 (L.O. 14:30), and beer takeout from 9:30 to 22:00. Takeout is available in bottles, PET bottles, plastic cups, and growlers.
Kesennuma Oyster Fair
The post also announced that the "Kesennuma Oyster Fair," using oysters from Yamayo Suisan on Oshima Island in Kesennuma, Miyagi Prefecture, had begun the day before. During lunch, the menu includes "oyster biryani," "Japanese-style dashi oyster curry," and "oysters steamed in kelp and sake," with curry, biryani, and snacks changing daily.
Beer Highlights
The beer highlight is the release of an "Oyster Stout" made with oysters. The post also says it is already proving popular, giving it a strong presence as a drink that can be enjoyed alongside the oyster dishes under the same theme. True to the style of a brewpub, the same post brings together both food and beer information, which also feels very much like this place.
On rainy days, there is also a service for lunch guests: they can choose between two pieces of freshly fried karaage or mutton liver achar. It is a business update that is easy to use both for people stopping by for a meal and for those who want to take beer home.
