GROW BREW HOUSE Offers a Food-Heavy Menu Today, Serving Six House-Brewed Beers
In a post on April 27, GROW BREW HOUSE in Nishikawaguchi, Saitama, announced that today was a "food-heavy day." Along with a tap list of six house-brewed beers, it has prepared Cuban-sandwich-style food and grilled Caesar-salad-style food, and it also previewed public brewing and curry service during Golden Week.
Hop BroNishikawaguchi's GROW BREW HOUSE has put out that today is a "food-heavy day." Even though it's a beer story, I like that it comes at you first with the aroma of pork and cheese.
MugiWhoa! A beer place where food feels like the main event? What do you mean by Cuban-sandwich-style? My stomach is already inside the shop first!
Hop BroThat's the strength of a brewpub. Because it's directly connected to the brewery, you can test the pairing between freshly made beer and food right there on the spot.
MugiSo directly connected to the brewery means you can drink next to the factory? That's kind of amazing, but this on-the-spot pairing check sounds like the manager's foodie sensor is too strong, doesn't it?
Hop BroThat's why the tap list is so wide-ranging. With six house-brewed beers, from the Milk Shake IPA called 'mix' to Amanatsu Wheat Lager and Hazy IPA called 'Heiji,' it's fun because you can choose based on your mood.
MugiWow, the names are cute and strong at the same time, busy! Amanatsu Wheat Lager sounds like something you could keep gulping down with its citrusy freshness.
Hop BroExactly. If you want something easy-drinking, that's a good one too, and going heavy with a Barley Wine like Onaji Hanashi is another option. At 9%, it's the kind of beer that makes the conversation turn philosophical halfway through.
Mugi9%? That's already at the level where the beer is saying, 'Listen to my story' with real pressure! But Barley Wine sounds strong just from the name alone!
Hop BroAnd GW is packed too. May 3 is BBQ, and from May 5 to 7 they open at 12:00 for a public brew session, so being able to drink while watching is irresistible for beer fans.
MugiCurry too during the public brew? That's amazing! The prospective lamb curry and coconut chicken both sound interesting, and this is the kind of place where if you go for a drink, you won't be able to go home!
Food-Heavy Service
The brewpub GROW BREW HOUSE in Nishikawaguchi, Kawaguchi City, Saitama Prefecture announced in an April 27 post that today would be a "food-heavy day." This time, the star is the food, designed specifically to pair with beer. The lineup includes a Cuban-sandwich-style item with melt-in-your-mouth pork simmered with spices and cheese tucked into French bread, as well as a grilled Caesar-salad-style dish with savory notes and garlic cheese, all meant to fully satisfy drinkers' appetites.
The shop is, in every sense, a brewpub directly connected to the brewery. The close distance between maker and drinker makes it easy to check the pairing of beer character and food on the spot. Located within walking distance of Nishikawaguchi Station, it offers house-brewed craft beer in a relaxed, unpretentious way.
Today's Tap List
In that day's post, six house-brewed beers were announced.
- mix / Milk Shake IPA / 7%
- Amanatsu Wheat Lager / Fruits Wheat Lager / 4%
- Heiji / Hazy IPA / 6%
- Onaji Hanashi / Barley Wine / 9%
- Pottering / Saison / 6%
- BIG BRIDGE IPA / American IPA / 7%
Milk Shake IPA, a fruit-style wheat lager, Hazy IPA, Barley Wine, Saison, and American IPA make for a pretty broad range of flavors. The lineup should suit everyone from those who want to drink lightly to those who want a beer with a solid body.
Golden Week Includes Public Brewing
The post also announced the Golden Week schedule. On May 3, they will hold Texas BBQ out front, and from May 5 through 7 they will open at 12:00 and do a public craft-beer brew session. On brew days, viewing is free, and being able to look in on the brewing site while drinking beer is another distinctly GROW BREW HOUSE touch.
During the same period, curry will also be served, and at present the candidates are lamb curry and coconut chicken curry. An operation that brings beer, food, and brew-day viewing together captures the shop's character well. If you're heading out for a drink in Nishikawaguchi, this is a good choice for a day when you want to enjoy the meal as part of the experience.
