Irish Pub Tullamore Offers Three Regulars and One Guest Beer on April 21
Irish Pub Tullamore in the Yoyogi Park area will be open on Tuesday, April 21, from 4:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., and has announced Guinness, Shiga Kogen Beer IPA, and Yebisu, along with a nitro Irish red and a guest beer from Chichibu Beer. It also announced a closure for the first half of Golden Week.
Hop BroThe April 21 tap release in the Yoyogi Park area is a really strong lineup from Irish Pub Tullamore. They have Guinness, Shiga Kogen Beer IPA, Yebisu, plus a nitro Irish red and even a guest beer from Chichibu Beer.
MugiWait, three regulars plus two more? That sounds more like a festival than a pub!
Hop BroExactly. Since they’re open from 4:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., it’s perfect for dropping in after work. The calm atmosphere is one of Tullamore’s strengths, letting you drink at a relaxed pace.
MugiBut what is nitro Irish red? Is it the one that gets all foamy?
Hop BroPretty close. It’s a system that creates a soft foam with nitrogen gas. Compared with carbonation, the mouthfeel is smoother, and the malt sweetness of the Irish red comes through nicely.
MugiOh, smooth mouthfeel sounds like something only the pros talk about.
Hop BroWhat’s even more interesting is the guest beer from Chichibu Beer, the Sugoi Momokuma Hazy IPA. It uses a lot of peach, and the way the fruitiness and hop aroma interact makes it a fascinating beer.
MugiA lot of peach? Can fruitiness and hop aroma really coexist? Won’t they clash?
Hop BroThat’s the fun part. There’s a tug-of-war between sweet aroma and bitterness. With hazy IPA, you enjoy the juiciness as part of the haze, so when the peach character comes forward it becomes really enjoyable.
MugiWow, that sounds like dessert in beer form, and with minced beef kebab too, that’s the kind of lineup that’s hard to stop at one.
Hop BroAnd the food is set up to pair easily with beer, with house-made roast pork and a carrot rapee salad as well. The kebab being available with chips or a salad for an extra 250 yen is handy too.
MugiOh, and they’re closed from April 27? Then I need to go before that or I’ll miss out on these beers!
Hop BroRight, they reopen on May 1, so this is one place you want to get to before then. Tonight, the question is whether to settle down with a Guinness or go all in on Momokuma, but the fact that we’re already debating it means we’re in the mood to drink.
Irish Pub Tullamore, located on the first floor of the Yoyogi Koen Building in Tomigaya, Tokyo, has released its tap list for Tuesday, April 21. The bar will be open from 4:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., offering five beers ranging from staples to a guest selection in the relaxed atmosphere typical of an Irish pub.
The day's Regular Beer lineup consists of three bottles: GUINNESS, SHIGA KOGEN BEER IPA, and Yebisu. Added to that is Today's English Style Ale -Nitro-, namely IKARI BREWING Irish Red -Nitro-, and Today's Guest Beer is CHICHIBU BEER SUGOI MOMOKUMA HAZY IPA. This hazy IPA uses plenty of peach, and it is a beer that makes you wonder how its hop-driven aroma will blend with its fruity character.
The food menu includes a salad with house-made roast pork and carrot rapee, as well as minced beef kebab. While keeping beer at the center, the lineup is also easy to build into a proper meal, making it well suited for pub use. The minced beef kebab can be paired with chips or a salad for an additional 250 yen, so it seems like a good match for a casual drinking day.
Tullamore also announced that it will be closed for the first half of Golden Week, from Monday, April 27 through Thursday, April 30, and will resume normal business on Friday, May 1. In the Yoyogi Hachiman and Yoyogi Park area, it is an easy place to stop in for just one drink after work or to sit down for a full meal with drinks.
