Hop BroOkei Brewery Nippori in Nippori just rolled out a 12-tap refresh for June 9. Nine house beers and three guests is the kind of list that traps you in front of the board.
MugiWait, nine house brews? That's not a tap list, that's a boss battle! I'd be stuck choosing my first pour forever.
Hop BroThe home team is Okei Brewery Nippori, and there are three guest breweries too: Ushitora Brewery, Hop Kotan Brewing, and Nara Brewing Co. That's a sharp guest lineup.
MugiThose names already slap! Pear Saison sounds unfairly tempting. Is that beer, dessert, or both?
Hop BroThat's the fun part. Saison is a light Belgian-style ale, so the Abe Pear Orchard Pear Saison can show off fruit character without turning syrupy.
MugiHold on, we just switched into beer class! What even is saison? I understood... maybe half of that!
Hop BroSimple version: it's a dry food-friendly style that's easy to drink. So the pear aroma pops, but it still plays nicely with a meal.
MugiOooh! Then is Arakawa Hazy Under Bridge totally different from Nippori Kolsch in both look and taste?
Hop BroCompletely. Hazy is cloudy and juicy, while Kolsch is light and crisp. Then OKEI IPA jumps in too, so the tasting range gets wide fast.
MugiAnd then you've got Gorilla Cola, Don Pota, and Megante with maximum chaos names. This tap list looks like a finishing-move roster from a manga.
Hop BroAnd it doesn't stop there. After a shochu tasting, they were still prepping service and showing off horse tartare on the new menu. Add the all-you-can-drink course, and the whole place feels dangerously inviting.
MugiI'm sold. Around Nippori Station, getting to pick the beer of the day while chasing Totonou and ennui sounds way too good.
Hop BroThis is not a one-glass situation. I want to start with OKEI IPA, then drift into the pear saison and call it a proper evening.
