Hop BroP2B Haus in Kichijoji put out a 12-tap list released on May 7. And from UCHOTEN Brewing's "Excursions" to P2B Haus house ale "CTO IPA," the lineup has a pretty wide range.
MugiWow! Even with 12 kinds, they still cover a lot of ground? It feels like there are too many answers to "What should I drink today?" and I'd get lost!
Hop BroThat's the interesting part. It runs from lighter ales to stouts, and there are multiple IPAs too, so it's set up nicely for side-by-side tasting.
MugiI hear IPA a lot, but names like American IPA and Pale Ale all start jumbling together in my head!
Hop BroPut simply, IPA is a style that emphasizes hop aroma and bitterness, while Pale Ale is a bit lighter and more brisk. For example, having Y.MARKET BREWING's "Over Drive Pale Ale" and "Over Drive IPA" side by side makes it easy to compare the strength of the aroma.
MugiI see! So Kanpai! Brewing's "Berry Berry Saka Acai Bowl Smoothie Sour" is an acai-bowl-style sour? That's basically dessert, isn't it?!
Hop BroExactly. It's a beer that puts fruitiness front and center. Sours are known for their acidity, but this one is especially playful, so it stands out as a sweet-tart, adventurous pour.
MugiWhoa! And Primary Barrels' "Chill to Tipsy" is a Coffee Stout! Beer with coffee feels like drinking morning and night at the same time, doesn't it?
Hop BroThat's exactly what makes it fun. The roasted malt's toasty character layers with coffee notes. And Nara Brewing's "TYPHINA" is a low-carbonation Keller Pils, so it's crisp while still letting the malt sweetness come through.
MugiBeing able to explore your favorite beer while eating in Kichijoji sounds amazing. I'd probably end up overthinking which one to choose and then go for a second glass anyway!
Hop BroExactly. In the end, this is a lineup you want to drink alongside a meal. If I were there, I'd start with CTO IPA, then TYPHINA, and after that I'd probably head for Excursions depending on my mood.
MugiWow, that sounds so good! I'm already in the mood to go to Kichijoji right now, and if I did a tasting flight at P2B Haus, it would be so fun I might never want to leave!
