Hop BroToday, at BEERKICHI in Watanabe-dori, Fukuoka, the new NEKOBEER duo goes on tap at a 3:00 p.m. May 29 opening.
MugiWhoa, even the shop name and the beer are packed with cats - it's a naming traffic jam!
Hop BroThe first one is Kin no Neko Golden, a Golden Ale at ABV 5.0%, straight-up classic.
MugiA Golden Ale - the one that makes you feel better just from the golden can? So it's easy-drinking and classic?
Hop BroExactly. It's built around gentle malt sweetness and a light hop presence, so it's ideal as the first pint.
MugiAnd the single-hop pale in the second one - what is that, equipment for a monk on a quest?!
Hop BroIt uses only Rakau in a single-hop design, so it's easy to compare the green, tropical character of New Zealand Rakau.
MugiI see, it looks like a cat but the contents are serious. And at just over 5% ABV, it sounds like I can manage a second pint!
Hop BroWhat's more, BEERKICHI opens at 3 p.m. on weekdays and closes at midnight, so it's a strong choice for tracking tap updates after work.
MugiAnd if there's even the Ebi Fry 1000-Strike Challenge, my stomach will open before the beer even does!
Hop BroThe plans after 5/31 are interesting too, but today I want to start with a cat-beer toast and really compare the flavors.
MugiYeah, this is one of those times when you just want to have a drink in Watanabe-dori and compare pours while admiring the cat labels!
Tap update for Friday, May 29
The beer pub BEERKICHI in Watanabe-dori, Chuo Ward, Fukuoka City, opened at 3:00 p.m. on Friday, May 29 and will remain open until midnight. In an Instagram post, the bar announced these two new NEKOBEER beers as "New on tap" starting that day.
The two beers are both from Fukuoka's NEKOBEER.
- NEKOBEER / Kin no Neko! Kogō! Kogō! Goggo! Golden Ale
Golden Ale / ABV 5.0% / Fukuoka
- NEKOBEER / Single Nekosan's Single-Hop Pale Ale ~NZ variety! Rakau de Kaukau Tsumitate Hop ver~
Pale Ale / ABV 5.5% / Fukuoka
The first is a Golden Ale, and the second is a single-hop Pale Ale made with the NZ variety Rakau. Both sit in the easy-drinking 5% range, and as befits a beer pub, they are set up so you can take your time and compare the flavor differences starting with the first glass. As the names suggest, there is a playful cat motif up front, but the styles themselves lean classic, so you can also enjoy the gap between the label and the actual drinking experience.
BEERKICHI is a convenient stop for anyone looking for craft beer in the Tenjin-minami area. On weekdays it opens at 3:00 p.m. and closes late at midnight, so it's well suited for dropping by early and keeping up with tap changes. In this post, the bar also announced 5/31 (Sun) Ebi Fry 1000-Strike Challenge, 6/7 (Sun) Marugoto Marumaru Festival, 6/8 (Mon) Kansuke x Beef Tongue Eat Night, and 6/14 (Sun) Middle-aged Festival, so it's worth keeping an eye on what's coming next as well.
