Sakazuki Lab Announces Spring-Only "Sakura🌸 Ale" Tap Opening on Instagram
Sakazuki Lab in Adachi Ward, Tokyo, announced on Instagram on the night of April 8 that it had tapped "Sakura🌸 Ale." A beer that puts springtime feeling front and center, it is also drawing attention as a message from a shop rooted in the Kitasenju area.
Hop BroIt's here, Tokyo's Adachi Ward Sakura🌸 Ale was announced as tapped on the night of April 8. It's very much like Sakazuki Lab, a glass that puts spring front and center.
MugiWhoa! Just the name Sakura🌸 Ale makes it feel like hanami season! I'm already in spring before even taking a sip!
Hop BroAnd Sakazuki Lab has that sister shop position in Kitasenju, so it's rooted in the neighborhood. They're great at making you drink along with the atmosphere of the city.
MugiOhhh! But, um... what exactly is a sister shop? Like a sibling relationship? The beer world suddenly has such a complicated family tree!
Hop BroBasically, it's the feeling of sharing a shop's worldview with the same group or a closely related place. Even in Adachi Ward's introduction, Sakazuki Brewing is presented as a brewpub that always has more than 10 kinds on hand.
MugiWhat is that! More than 10 kinds means I'd get lost before I even choose! But that's a happy kind of lost, I guess.
Hop BroWhat's even more interesting is that Untappd's public list shows spring-like label names. Sakuragasumi and Haru Urara, for example, are the kind of names that really nail the seasonal vibe.
MugiWhoa! Spring mood from the name alone? The label is already in full bloom! My heart starts flowering before I even drink it!
Hop BroStill, this time the style and ingredient details aren't clear from public information alone. That's exactly why it feels natural to take it as a beer made for spring.
MugiI see! Even if the details are a mystery, if there's the excitement of a seasonal limited release, that's enough to get me hyped! This is the kind of thing that makes you want to drink it right away!
Hop BroExactly. If you're following the craft beer scene in Kitasenju, this is a spring post you shouldn't miss. If you stop by on the way home from hanami, you'll probably need a second glass.
MugiTotally! Today I'm already in the mood to toast with Sakura🌸 Ale! Spring might be the season that suits beer best!
