Hop BroAt Half Yard Shiki, SHIKI BEER "Brown" was newly tapped in the April 28 post. It's a coffee beer made with lightly roasted beans, and it's a porter-based brew.
MugiWhoa! A coffee beer already sounds so stylish. And if it's porter-based, that means it's dark and heavy, right?
Hop BroThat's what's interesting about it. The impression of lightly roasted beans comes through, so it has roastiness without being too heavy. The malt's toasty aroma and the coffee sort of overlap softly.
MugiSoftly overlap? What does that even mean? Isn't that kind of contradictory? But if it's said to be like an American, it might actually be pretty easy to drink!
Hop BroExactly. The key is that it's geared toward a gentle flavor rather than an aggressively bitter one. It's the kind of beer that's perfect when you want a short break or need to reset your mood.
MugiThat's the kind of thing that hits hard after work! But Half Yard Shiki has more than 10 beers on draft, right? They're practically inviting you to get lost!
Hop BroYeah, it's a micro beer hall that you can enjoy as it rotates seasonally. You can drink domestic and international craft beers on draft, and the big TV is nice too, since you can relax without feeling formal.
MugiThat's amazing! It sounds great whether you come with friends or just drop in by yourself. And an at-home atmosphere is like a refuge for beer lovers!
Hop BroAnd if you look at the post's tags, you can tell this is a shop with deep craft beer credentials. When you see names like BrewDog, Hansharo Beer, Black Tide Brewing, Ise Kadoya Brewery, and Y.MARKET BREWING all lined up, you can expect a wide lineup.
MugiWow, I want to drink it even without seeing the photos. Enjoying a meal in Shiki while trying a guest beer sounds pretty enviable.
Hop BroThen it's settled. Let's sip SHIKI BEER "Brown" while keeping an eye out for the next glass and drink at a leisurely pace. Tonight, both of us are already calling for beer.
