6 taps updated at Grau Craft beer bar in Fujimino, 99.9 ver.2 returns
A May 22 post from Grau Craft beer bar in Fujimino City, Saitama, announced the return of CRANC × Grau's double IPA, "99.9 ver.2." The current ON TAP lineup features six beers, with a broad mix ranging from West Coast IPA and Hazy IPA to Blueberry Sour.
Hop BroA six-tap update in Fujimino is hot right now. At Grau Craft beer bar, CRANC × Grau's "99.9 ver.2" has come back, and that's definitely one you don't want to miss.
MugiWait! Is 99.9 ver.2 really that special? And "the genuine last keg" sounds so urgent just hearing it!
Hop BroExactly. Since it's a Double IPA, it hits hard with both hops and malt. The alcohol presence, bitterness, and aroma all come through strongly, so it's really satisfying to drink.
MugiA double IPA sounds strong just from the name...! But when you say it has a strong malt character, does that mean it's bitter and sweet? My head is already full of beer!
Hop BroBasically, it means you get more than just bitterness, you also feel the depth of the malt. And this time they've got everything from West Coast IPA to Hazy IPA, so it's interesting to compare the sharply defined aroma style with the juicy style.
MugiWow, that's a wide range! I keep hearing about juicy-style beers lately, but are they like fruit juice? That sounds a lot easier for me to get into!
Hop BroThat's basically the idea. For example, there's a fruit-forward beer like Niimazaka Blueberry Sour, and if you want something crisp, going with a Bohemian-Style Pilsner like AKIRA no Kyujitsu is a great choice too.
MugiWait, they've got blueberry and pilsner too!? This is basically a tasting paradise, isn't it? And the names sound so fun, that's unfair!
Hop BroAnd on top of that, NEXT TAP has Kinki Pale Ale and even a Hoppy Pilsner waiting, so there's no way you'd get bored on the next visit. Plus, if they're open from 5 p.m. and have fried chicken and mapo tofu, that's basically a victory lineup.
MugiThen I have to go! If I can enjoy beer and snacks together, I want to go after that last keg too!
In the latest post from Grau Craft beer bar, a beer pub in Niima, Fujimino City, Saitama, the tap list has been substantially refreshed. The shop focuses on craft beer from domestic breweries, and this time it announced both the current six-tap lineup and the next beers in line.
The highlight is the return of CRANC × Grau : 99.9 ver.2 (Double IPA). The post describes it as the "genuine last keg," presenting it as a beer not to miss. Other beers now on tap include CAMADO × Grau : Kiln Ash (West Coast IPA), NAMACHAん × Grau : Re:NAMAGrauzy (Hazy IPA), HOPKOTAN : AKIRA no Kyujitsu (Bohemian-Style Pilsner), NARA : FUNCTION (American-Belgo-Style Ale), and Kampai! × Grau : Niimazaka Blueberry Sour (Fruits Sour).
The range of styles is also a draw. From the sharply defined hop character of a West Coast IPA, to the rich and juicy Hazy IPA, the malt-forward Double IPA, the crisp-drinking pilsner, and the fruit-driven sour, there is something to suit every mood. Tasting them side by side should make the bar's character stand out even more clearly.
The NEXT TAP lineup also includes Onidensetsu : Kinki Pale Ale ADHA-1631 Single Ver. (Pale Ale), NARA : KIP (Hoppy Pilsner), and NAMACHAん × D and D : NANA Brown Ale (Brown Ale). On the next visit as well, guests should be able to enjoy a wide range of beers, from crowd-pleasing classics to maltier, more flavor-forward options.
According to the bar's post, business hours are from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., and this weekend there will be mapo tofu, while fried chicken will be available on Friday, May 22. As with Grau Craft beer bar, the appeal is not just the beer but also the chance to enjoy it with food. Anyone in the Fujimino area who likes keeping up with tap rotations will want to check out this update.
