On August 30, Yokohama Bay Brewing’s Yokohama Front tap room announced its new lager, Saaz419. The direct-run beer pub near Yokohama Station listed 14 beers on tap, including house staples and guest pours from Minoh Beer, Nara Brewing, CRAFTROCK x Swan Lake, and REPUBREW.
Hop BroLet’s talk about Yokohama Bay Brewing Yokohama Front today. On August 30, they tapped a new lager called Saaz419.
MugiWhat! That name Saaz419 sounds less like a beer and more like a top-secret mission!
Hop BroHere’s the fun part: it’s a lager made with Saaz hops, and they say it uses a special custom blend made just for Yokohama Bay Brewing.
MugiWhoa, hold on. Saaz hops? Is that a beer ingredient or a spell from wizard school?
Hop BroIn simple terms, it’s a hop known for elegant, classic aroma. This beer aims for a balance of aroma and bitterness, with a clean finish.
MugiOh, so it’s not a punch-you-in-the-face beer, it’s more like a well-behaved lager you can keep sipping.
Hop BroExactly, and the shop itself is strong too. It’s a direct-run beer pub on the second floor of THE YOKOHAMA FRONT, five minutes from JR Yokohama Station, and you can drink it super fresh from the brewery.
MugiThat close? Nice. And they’re pouring 14 beers on tap? I’d panic in the best possible way.
Hop BroYou’ve got Bay Pilsner, Saaz419, Tag Lager, Bay Weiss, Team Up IPA, plus guests from Minoh Beer, Nara Brewing, and REPUBREW. It’s a seriously broad lineup.
MugiFrom lagers to IPA, weiss, and hazy? That settles it, this is a full tasting-flight day. I’m starting with Saaz419!
