Hop BroStarting at 5 p.m. on May 14, the monthly keg-swap event is coming to Sakazuki Lab in Adachi Ward. This month's star is KIRIN Tanrei Gokujo
MugiWait, Tanrei Nama, that standard beer!? It's surprising that a long-selling brand is the focus of an event!
Hop BroExactly. It debuted as Tanrei Nama in 1998 and evolved into Tanrei Gokujo
MugiWhat do you mean, the same beer becomes a different person? What's this double pour thing, anyway, do you pour it twice!?"
Hop BroIt's a technique that layers the foam little by little to smooth out the mouthfeel. This time you can compare four pouring styles: single pour, double pour, sharp pour, and no foam.
MugiWow, that sounds fun to choose from! And at just 600 yen, it's easy to go and test the differences.
Hop BroAnd the food is great too. They're serving escolar and potato simmered in salsa, matching Tanrei's crispness with a sharp, punchy flavor. That's the kind of thing that makes your stomach growl before you even start drinking.
MugiThat sounds amazing! The pairing with salsa simmer makes a clean, refreshing beer feel like instant rice-stealer material!
Hop BroSakazuki Lab is the kind of place that excels at showing how interesting beer can be when it's served differently. The way it gets people to rediscover how to drink beer in Adachi Ward is exactly the kind of hands-on know-how you'd expect.
MugiIf it starts at 5 p.m., I want to rush over after work! Tonight, I already feel like I want to be the first one to decide on my first drink.
Hop BroExactly. They also mention the sister shop Sakazuki Brewing, so this month is shaping up to be all about monthly rotating fun. Days like this always end up being the most lively.
MugiIt's settled! I'm going with double pour with foam, so Hop, which one are you drinking?
Hop BroI'll start with the sharp pour. Then I'll compare it all the way to no foam, and before I know it I'll be ordering another one.
Tokyo's Sakazuki Lab in Adachi Ward will hold its monthly keg-swap event starting at 5 p.m. on May 14. This month's star is KIRIN Tanrei Gokujo <Nama>. In the post, it is introduced as a long-selling brand that debuted as "Tanrei Nama" in 1998 and evolved into "Tanrei Gokujo <Nama>" in 2015.
The highlight this time is the serving style, which changes the character of the same beer depending on how it is poured. The shop is offering four options:
- Single pour (mug)
- Double pour (thin-rim glass)
- Sharp pour (glass)
- No foam (glass)
With four different patterns to compare, guests can taste and compare according to their preferences. The price is a budget-friendly 600 yen, making it easy to try.
For food, they are pairing it with "escolar and potato simmered in salsa", a dish that brings a summery feel. The setup layers the beer's crispness and lightness with the sharp flavor of salsa, making it easy to enjoy on its own or alongside a meal. This kind of proposal reflects the shop's desire to let people enjoy not just beer itself, but also its compatibility with food.
Sakazuki Lab is a brewery and beer bar in Adachi Ward, Tokyo, centered on craft beer. Its specialty is creating events that let customers rediscover standard beers they can drink every day through different pouring methods and food pairings.
