Yuya Boys' "Flower Children / Sweetpea" and 8 Other Taps Open at Sekimachi Cellar
The beer pub Sekimachi Cellar in Nerima, Tokyo announced new kegs on tap. The lineup includes Yuya Boys, Shiga Kogen, and DD4D x Sekimachi Cellar, spanning everything from DIPA to smoked lager and sour IPA.
Hop BroNerima beer pub Sekimachi Cellar’s tap-opening bulletin is pretty bold this time, right? Yuya Boys' 'Flower Children / Sweetpea' is just the start, and it also lines up Shiga Kogen and DD4D × Sekimachi Cellar.
MugiWait, that many!? Eight taps opening at once feels more like a little beer festival!
Hop BroAnd the star, 'Flower Children / Sweetpea,' is the second release in the Flower Children series and a DIPA. It has a solid hop bitterness, plus grapefruit and tropical-fruit aromas.
MugiDIPA again! A core of hop bitterness sounds intense, but is it just bitter?
Hop BroDIPA means double IPA. So it has a richer aroma and body, with fruitiness layered on top of the bitterness. It’s the kind that makes you go, "Whoa."
MugiOhhh, interesting! And Shiga Kogen's Africa Pale Ale being put on nitro is making me curious!
Hop BroNitro uses nitrogen for the pour, so it gives you a smoother mouthfeel than carbon dioxide. The foam is creamier, and even the same beer feels completely different.
MugiWhoa, this is a deep rabbit hole of tasting...! But from 'Sakura Smoke Lager' to Sour IPA, the range is huge. Isn't the spread a bit wild?
Hop BroExactly. Namat-chan's smoke lager, DD4D × Sekimachi Cellar's 'haruKa' Hazy IPA, and WCB's 'Full Hop Alchemist v29'—the lineup is getting a bit crowded with personality. It's fun because you can try a cherry-wood-smoked lager, then hazy, sour, and DIPA all in one go.
MugiThen it's decided! One drink at the standing bar, and if I like it, one more, right? Hop bro, we might get pulled in by Sekimachi Cellar too!
At the beer pub Sekimachi Cellar in Sekimachi Higashi, Nerima Ward, Tokyo, new draft beers were announced. The shop follows a standing-style setup attached to a liquor store, and at the drink counter on the first floor you can enjoy mainly draft craft beer by the glass. On the second-floor terrace, you can also enjoy the liquor and snacks you bought on the spot.
In this post, the first new arrival is Yuya Boys' "Flower Children / Sweetpea." It is a DIPA, the second release in the Flower Children series, and is introduced as featuring a firm hop-driven bitterness along with grapefruit and tropical fruit notes. In addition, Shiga Kogen's "Africa Pale Ale" has been put on nitro, giving it a smoother mouthfeel different from carbonation.
Other taps currently on are Namat-chan's "Sakura Smoke Lager," DD4D x Sekimachi Cellar's "haruKa" Hazy IPA, Beer Vista's "VISTA LAGAR," Tall Boys x DD4D's "Emerald Spire" Hazy IPA, Teenage's "Cherry Blossom Road" Sour IPA, and WCB's "Full Hop Alchemist v29" Hazy DIPA. From a smoke lager made by smoking malt with cherry wood to hazy, sour, and DIPA styles, the lineup offers a wide range and plenty of fun for side-by-side tasting.
Sekimachi Cellar is also a specialty liquor store that carries a broad range of sake, shochu, wine, and whiskey, while its craft beer selection spans limited small-batch releases, standards, and overseas labels. Whether you stop in for just one beer or compare several, this opening lineup is worth checking out.
