Hop BroHOP MAN in the north exit area of Chigasaki Station has put out its May 14 ON TAP TODAY. This time there are a full 26 draft beers, and it’s quite a lineup.
MugiWhat, 26 beers? That’s way too many! I’d freeze up in front of the menu not knowing where to start!
Hop BroStart with Sapporo the PERFECT Black Label, then move on to Kakegawa Beer’s Gozonroppu Lager ~West Coast Pilsner~. It’s a lager route that covers both crisp drinkability and aroma.
MugiHuh! But what is a West Coast Pilsner anyway? It’s a pilsner, but West Coast? The name alone is information overload!
Hop BroBroadly speaking, it’s a style that combines the easy drinkability of a pilsner with a strong hop aroma. So the key point is the balance of bitterness and aroma.
MugiThat sounds delicious! And Falo Brewing’s HANABI, Gloria, HBD, and Falo IPA are all there too - it’s the kind of lineup that makes you want to drink the same brewery side by side!
Hop BroThat’s the fun part of HOP MAN: there are also Shiga Kogen Beer’s from scratch / a blonde ale and Passific Brewing’s Sprinkle! and Yooble. What’s hot is how breweries from all over Japan gather in one place.
MugiWait, wait, Ise Kadoya Beer’s sake lees hazy IPA actually has sake lees in it? I can’t tell whether this is beer or Japanese food!
Hop BroAnd then you add Electro Squash Sour IPA, Brasserie Knot’s MOON, and Uchu Brewing’s Nothingness, so it’s basically a three-way showdown of IPAs, hazies, and sours.
MugiTwo Kinkin Pale Ales from Oni Densetsu, plus Black Oni Stout Kato SPVer. Mk2 too? Today is basically beer tasting heaven! And the pork belly cartilage simmered in green chili salt sounds tempting too!
Hop BroExactly. HOP MAN is a beer pub and a bottle shop, so you can choose classics or limited releases with confidence. Tonight, it’s a place where your glass keeps moving, and I want to take my time with it.
MugiYeah, I can’t hold back anymore! This lineup makes me want to raise a glass in Chigasaki, and one drink definitely won’t be enough!
