And Beer taps two new releases in Koenji, also highlighting a Coffee Ale collaboration with Coffee Wrights
The brewpub And Beer in Tokyo's Koenji announced its operating information for Sunday, April 26. In addition to two new beers tapped the day before, it is recommending a coffee ale made in collaboration with Coffee Wrights, making for a day to enjoy with music and food.
Hop BroThe Koenji brewpub, And Beer's all-day service is hot. On April 26, it has two new releases plus a collaboration, so it's covered from lunch through the night.
MugiWhoa! Just two new releases would already be exciting, and there’s a collaboration too!? That’s a lot of info, like beer foam piling up and piling up!
Hop BroFirst up is TropicalNightIPA. It's a Juicy IPA, and because it uses a lot of aromatic hops, the aroma really comes forward and it has plenty of heft on the palate.
MugiDoes juicy mean the hops are juicy? I thought it had fruit juice in it or something!
Hop BroIt’s easier to think of it as aromatic depth rather than juice. It’s more like expressing a tropical impression and freshness through hop character.
MugiI see! Then what kind of beer is Nahual? The name sounds a little mysterious, so now I’m curious!
Hop BroNahual is a Mexican Dark Lager. Its appeal is that it drinks clean even though it's dark, and because it uses corn, it's not too heavy and goes down smoothly.
MugiWait, dark but crisp? That’s almost unfair, isn't it? It’s like a cool, handsome beer that looks intense but is refreshing on the inside!
Hop BroThe recommendation goes one step further with the Coffee Ale collaboration. They teamed up with Coffee Wrights and used Ethiopian Tamiru Tadese Mulago, so the coffee aroma and the malt roastiness overlap beautifully.
MugiWow, being able to enjoy music and food together too is the best! If there's DJ time plus biryani and curry, I can't find a reason not to drink today!
On April 26, And Beer is starring two new releases and a collaboration beer
At And Beer, a brewpub in Koenji-kita, Suginami Ward, Tokyo, all-day service will be held on Sunday, April 26. Hours are 11:30 to 21:00, with lunch from 11:30 to 15:00 and dinner from 17:00 to 21:00. Beer takeaway is available from 10:00 to 21:00, and bottles, plastic cups, and growlers are accepted.
In that day's post, two beers tapped the day before were introduced as new releases.
- TropicalNightIPA
- Style: Juicy IPA
- A full-bodied IPA loaded with aromatic hops
- Nahual
- Style: Mexican Dark Lager
- A dark lager made with corn that drinks clean and crisp
Also recommended was AND TAMIRU TADESSE- COFFEE ALE-. This collaboration with Coffee Wrights of Kuramae, Tokyo, uses Ethiopian "Tamiru Tadese Mulago" beans. The aroma of coffee and the roasty character of the malt come together, making it a beer that seems equally suited to being enjoyed in a pint or slowly savored as it changes with temperature.
The shop will also have its bi-monthly DJ time inside, creating an atmosphere where guests can spend time with music from 17:00 onward. In addition, today's biryani is chicken biryani, and the curry lineup includes mustard chicken and dried sardines and maitake dal, expanding the ways to pair them with beer.
And Beer is a Koenji spot where you can enjoy house-brewed beer alongside spiced dishes. The terrace seats are pet-friendly for dogs and cats, and the bar also supports takeaway and Uber Eats, making it easy not only to settle in and drink on-site but also to take something home casually and enjoy it elsewhere. From tasting the new releases side by side to sipping the coffee ale, it is a day with a lineup that beer lovers will want to check out.
