Hop BroEvolve Beer&Kitchen in Mukojima has revealed its September 26 tap list. Ten choices including a fresh keg make it a seriously fun lineup.
MugiWhoa, ten taps!? With lagers through sours on the list, even a craft-beer beginner like me can find something.
Hop BroThe headliner is NEKO BEER's "Gekijoban Oneko wa Nigaiyo". Its subtitle mentions a flamingo, so the name is already stealing the show.
MugiA bitter cat and a flamingo!? That is a lot to process—what kind of beer is it?
Hop BroIt is a classic West Coast IPA. Think firm bitterness and expressive hop aroma for people craving a proper hoppy pint.
MugiDoes West Coast mean beach drinking? And is IPA bitterness okay for a newcomer?
Hop BroIt points to a clear, crisp American West Coast IPA style. The bitterness is joined by citrus and pine notes from the hops.
MugiNice! Then comparing it with Pizza Port's "Summer Sunlight" would make me a bitterness explorer.
Hop BroAnd VERTERE's "Osumunda" is a Hazy IPA—soft, cloudy, and juicy, a very different direction from a West Coast IPA.
MugiSo IPAs have personalities! There is the crisp bitter type and the soft juicy type.
Hop BroExactly. There is also the Brut Lager "KOZUKOZU," pilsners, a Hyuganatsu sour, and a non-alcoholic lemon squash, so it works beautifully with food and every kind of companion.
MugiLager with simmered autumn mackerel pike, IPA with curry, then dessert… I want to raise a glass in Mukojima this final September weekend!
