Hop BroJizakaya Noboru in Oimachi just tapped Uehara Session IPA, and it sounds perfect for a daytime beer run.
MugiWait, Jizakaya Noboru already sounds intriguing, and now you're saying it's a lunch-beer destination too?
Hop BroYep, this one is from Harvestmoon and made with GEN, who runs a Swan Lake Beer spot in Yoyogi-Uehara, so it's a proper collaboration beer.
MugiWhoa! But what exactly is a Session IPA? Is it IPA with the scary mode turned down?
Hop BroPretty much. It's built to stay light and refreshing, so you get the IPA character without the heavy finish.
MugiOkay, so it's the kind you can actually enjoy from midday without losing the rest of your afternoon!
Hop BroExactly, and GEN used to brew at Harvestmoon, which gives this pour a real guest beer mystique.
MugiThey waited until the other shop ran out before tapping it? What is this, beer theater? That tap timing is hilarious!
Hop BroAnd Noboru isn't just about beer either. With specialty coffee, sandwiches, and spice curry, it's great for beer with food.
MugiI can already picture it: curry or a sandwich, then this as the first beer move of the day. That's a winning Saturday.
Hop BroThat's the appeal. Now I really want to stop by Oimachi and taste Harvestmoon's spin on it myself.
MugiSame here. Let's show up hungry and thirsty for Uehara Session IPA!
