Two Guest Beers Tapped

At "JINGLE BEER&DINING," on the first basement floor in Minamisaiwai, Nishi Ward, Yokohama, guest beer service will begin at 5:00 p.m. on May 27. This time’s lineup features two beers: Ise Kadoya Beer’s "Ise Kadoya Pale Ale" and Y.MARKET BREWING’s "Y.MARKET Hysteric IPA". Both are familiar names to craft beer fans, making this a pairing worth comparing side by side.

In the shop’s post, it says they will prepare light snacks to go with the beer, including menma, zha cai, and ajitama. Rather than a full meal, the setup makes it easy to start with just one drink, and the appeal is that you can enjoy it with small bites that do not get in the way of the beer’s flavor.

JINGLE BEER&DINING is a beer pub operating in the Yokohama Station west exit area. In its calm underground space, it is easy to drop in on the way home from work. In this post, the shop also says "solo guests are very welcome," so it is also a good fit for people who want to enjoy just one drink at the counter.

May 27 is a Wednesday, and the post notes, "We’re closed tomorrow, Thursday, so come by tonight." If you want an after-work drink, it is worth checking in soon after the taps open.
