Craft Beer Bar & Bottle Shop Progress taps Minoh Beer 'Blooming IPA' and Daisen G Beer 'DGB Wheat Day'
At Craft Beer Bar & Bottle Shop Progress (Nakahara Ward, Kawasaki City, Kanagawa), April 8 brings the weekly Wednesday 20% discount on takeaway draft beer, along with two taps: Minoh Beer 'Blooming IPA' and Daisen G Beer 'DGB Wheat Day'.
Hop BroToday, the two-tap launch in the Musashi-Kosugi area is hot. At Craft Beer Bar & Bottle Shop Progress, Minoh Beer 'Blooming IPA' and Daisen G Beer 'DGB Wheat Day' are on the lineup.
MugiWait, an IPA and a Wheat Sour at the same time!? And since it's a beer pub and bottle shop, can you even choose where you drink it?
Hop BroExactly. 'Blooming IPA' is a spring-limited beer with Belgian yeast aroma up front, with citrus and tropical notes gently spreading through it. Bitterness is kept in check, so it's designed to let the aroma shine.
MugiBelgian yeast sounds like fancy fermentation all of a sudden! But does that mean the beer tastes sweeter?
Hop BroIt's more about how the aroma comes through than sweetness. The yeast-derived esters add a fruity impression. If you think of 'Blooming IPA' as being led by citrus and tropical fruit, it's easy to understand.
MugiOhhh! Then what kind of beer is 'DGB Wheat Day'? Even the name sounds gentle!
Hop BroExactly. It's a 100% wheat brew Wheat Sour made with Daisen water and 100% Daisen-grown grain, where aromas like white wine and apple are layered with the refreshing acidity from lactic fermentation.
MugiLactic fermentation, though, doesn't that become too sour? The kind that makes your mouth pucker sounds a little nerve-racking!
Hop BroIt's balanced nicely, so don't worry. The acidity stands out, but it doesn't get sharp, and it has a clean, easy-drinking acidity.
MugiNow I want to compare them! And on Wednesday, with 20% off takeaway draft beer plus growlers and cups available, the trip home sounds fun too.
Hop BroExactly. The outdoor seats welcome pets and even have leash hooks, so it's a great stop for a spring detour. And since it's cashless only, it's very much Progress to have a smart pint.
MugiAlright, today it's all about comparing hop aromas! I'll take Blooming IPA, hop brother gets Wheat Day, and then we'll finish with a toast together!
Today's Taps
Craft Beer Bar & Bottle Shop Progress is open on Wednesday, April 8, from 16:00 to 23:00. True to its identity as both a beer pub and a bottle shop, the venue presents a lineup meant for both a pint enjoyed slowly in-house and a glass taken home.
Two beers are on tap today.
- Minoh Beer `Blooming IPA`
A spring-limited IPA with an elegant aroma from Belgian yeast, layered with notes reminiscent of citrus and tropical fruit. Bitterness is somewhat restrained, and the beer is designed to highlight its vibrant aroma.
- Daisen G Beer `DGB Wheat Day`
A Wheat Sour brewed with Daisen water and 100% Daisen-grown barley and wheat. Aromas like white wine and apple are joined by the refreshing acidity of lactic fermentation, making it an easy beer to keep drinking.
On Wednesdays, takeaway draft beer is 20% off. Growler fills are welcome, and the shop also provides cups and plastic bottles, so even if you come empty-handed, it's easy to use the draft takeaway service by volume. The outdoor seating area welcomes pets and includes leash hooks, making it an easy stop during the pleasant spring weather.
Progress accepts cashless payments only. In the Musashi-Kosugi area, it is a place worth keeping in mind for days when you want to compare an IPA with vivid hop aroma and a sour beer with a clean, well-defined acidity.
