The beer pub Mugibaru in Nishi-Kamata, Tokyo, has posted its current tap list on Instagram. Centered on an anniversary hazy bearing the shop's name, the lineup also features distinctive beers from breweries such as Uchu Brewing, Ise Kadoya Beer, and Repubrew, with enough variety through the NEXT slot to make tasting side by side part of the fun.
Hop BroThe Kamata beer pub "Mugibaru" has posted a 7-tap list on Instagram. The first pour is an anniversary hazy bearing the shop's name, and the lineup is the kind that really gets you wanting to compare beers side by side.
MugiWait, an anniversary beer right off the bat! Just from the name Kinako-iro no Fuwafuwa Hazy, it already sounds too tasty!
Hop BroAnd this one is Tokaido Beer's Hazy IPA at 6% ABV. It has haze, and the hop aroma spreads in a juicy way, so it feels like the beer that represents Mugibaru.
MugiOhh! But what exactly makes a Hazy IPA "hazy"? Is there fog in it or something?
Hop BroNo fog in there. It's cloudy because of proteins from the malt and oats, and yeast left behind, and that makes the juicy aroma stand out. Next up is Uchu Brewing's "GOLEM," a DDH West Coast IPA.
MugiDDH alone sounds powerful! Mugibaru is really going for it with Uchu Brewing in the lineup!
Hop BroDDH means double dry hop. It's a method where more hops are added after fermentation to push the hop aroma even further. And because it's a West Coast IPA, compared with a hazy, the outline is sharper and the bitterness comes through cleanly.
MugiSo even within IPA, they're totally different! And there's Ise Kadoya Beer's "Sencha Hazy IPA" too, so just imagining the tea-like aroma is fun!
Hop BroExactly, and what's nice is that classic-style beers are mixed in too, like "Juicy pop" and Asahi's "Jukusen." It doesn't lean too heavily on hazies; the fact that you can reset your palate with a pilsner is a smart lineup.
MugiWait, there's even a NEXT slot!? FLASH HOP IPA and "Washi Hop Juice IPA"? Isn't it almost cheating that you can already see the next pour?
Hop BroThat's part of Mugibaru's fun. You can compare beers casually in Kamata, and the fact that dogs are welcome is nice too. Today, I feel like the two of us should just have a drink while thinking about what to order after the next tap opens up.
MugiYeah, this is too much! I only have one feeling right now: I want to go drink immediately! Let's start with the anniversary hazy, hop bro!
