MOONRISE KINGDOM in Nishi-Shinjuku announces three taps for Aug. 2 service
MOONRISE KINGDOM, a beer pub in Nishi-Shinjuku, posted its Aug. 2 Sunday service notice. The lineup features three taps from TOKYO ALEWORKS, NARA BREWING, and BREW CLASSIC, alongside summer-friendly food.
Hop BroWhat caught my eye today is MOONRISE KINGDOM in West Shinjuku. For August 2, they lined up three domestic craft taps.
MugiWait, three domestic taps on a Sunday? West Shinjuku is suddenly looking way too tempting!
Hop BroThe lineup is strong. Asakusa Mosaic IPA is from TOKYO ALEWORKS, PERSONA Session IPA is from NARA BREWING, and ドリスノジャガーヲ American Belgo is from BREW CLASSIC.
MugiHold on, what's a Session IPA? Is that the kind of IPA you drink during a meeting?
Hop BroThat would be a terrible idea. It's basically an easy-drinking IPA with a lighter feel, but you still get that hop aroma.
MugiOhhh! Then what is American Belgo? That name sounds like it needs a passport.
Hop BroThink Belgian yeast character mixed with American hop flair. That aroma mash-up is the fun part, with spicy and floral notes showing up together.
MugiAnd the article mentions beef birria tacos? That's unfair. Pair that with a hoppy IPA and my mouth is basically at a festival.
Hop BroThen you add carnitas burritos, plum bruschetta, and chilled capellini with sea bream and bottarga, and suddenly it's summer-ready food built for cold beer.
MugiWhat is this place! If they also have 30 canned crafts, there's no way I'd stop at just the three taps.
Hop BroLunch runs 12:00-14:30, and dinner goes until 22:00 last order, so it's perfect for a long, lazy Sunday drinking session.
MugiI'm sold. Bring me ice-cold craft beer with burritos and tacos right now!
