GROW BREW HOUSE in Nishikawaguchi adds six house beers, with its kushikatsu event on its final day
GROW BREW HOUSE, a brewpub in Nishikawaguchi, Saitama, is featuring six house-brewed beers ranging from dark lager to black IPA. The venue also noted that its kushikatsu event was on its final day.
Hop BroGROW BREW HOUSE in Nishikawaguchi just rolled out six house-brewed taps today. The range goes from a dark lager to a Black IPA, which is a seriously fun spread.
MugiWait, and it's also the last day of the kushikatsu event? I was already struggling to pick a beer, and now fried skewers are entering the equation!
Hop BroThat's what makes it good. GROW BREW HOUSE is a brewpub attached to the brewery, so the brewer and the drinker feel really close, and that suits a small-batch lineup perfectly.
MugiWhoa! But Against Day is a dark lager? So it's dark, but still easy to drink? That sounds like a pint-sized illusion.
Hop BroExactly, and that's the charm. A dark lager gives you roasty flavor with a crisp finish. It's toasty and dark, but it doesn't land as heavy as people expect.
MugiWhat about Heiji, the Hazy IPA? The name sounds like a detective who solves mysteries by following hop aroma.
Hop BroHeiji is built around soft juicy haze, with aroma that spreads gently. Then you've got POTTERING as a saison, 17AVE as an American rye ale, and 単衣仕立て as a cream ale.
MugiThat lineup is dangerous. And the beers that are running low are Heiji and 単衣仕立て, right? Because scarcity makes me move way too fast.
Hop BroExactly. Their head brewer used to be a chef too, so the food side matters. Once you get into the beer and kushikatsu loop, there's no way you're stopping at one round.
MugiI'm finished. Luna Phase the Black IPA, Against Day, and fried skewers all sound too good, and I want a pint right now. Nishikawaguchi just became today's detour.
