Chiitoko Shoten in Shimosuwa announces four draft beers for May 24, with M/L discounts for Bath Day
"Dagashi, Beer, and Coffee Shop Chiitoko Shoten" in Shimosuwa, Nagano Prefecture, will be open from 10:00 to 22:00 on May 24. On Instagram, it announced four draft beers and also shared its "Bath Day" offer, with M size drinks discounted by 100 yen and L size drinks by 150 yen.
Hop BroThe "Dagashi, Beer, and Coffee Shop Chiitoko Shoten" in Shimosuwa is serving four draft beers on May 24. The Bath Day special makes it even more interesting, doesn’t it?
MugiWhoa! Dagashi, beer, and coffee is a lot to take in! Three roles in one shop is already too much for my brain to process.
Hop BroAnd the lineup is great too. Minoh Beer’s Pale Ale, Nomcraft Brewing’s 7th Revolution Sour IPA, Shiga Kogen Beer’s from scratch, and even Kind of Gold are all on tap.
MugiWow! But what even is a Sour IPA? It sounds sour just from the name, and that makes me a little nervous.
Hop BroExactly, it’s an IPA with acidity. Along with the hop aroma, it has a bright, slightly tart fruitiness, so it drinks light and stays interesting.
MugiI see! Then what about from scratch? Just hearing a Shiga Kogen Beer makes it sound strong!
Hop Brofrom scratch is nice because it’s easy to drink at 5.0%. True to its name, it has a simple, back-to-basics feel, and it’s the kind of beer you’d want to start with.
MugiWow, there’s everything from light to strong! So Kind of Gold at 8.0% is basically a reward-level beer, right?
Hop BroExactly. Kind of Gold at 8.0% is a collaboration between Shiga Kogen Beer, Dogfish Head, and Oxbow, so it should have plenty of depth. Beer fans really can’t resist that international kind of lineup.
MugiBut seriously, 100 yen off M size is nice, but why are they pushing it so much? What does a Bath Day special have to do with beer and baths?
Hop BroIt’s a playful nod to "Bath Day" because the shop is in Shimosuwa. With 100 yen off M size and 150 yen off L size, it’s easy to grab a drink, snack on dagashi, and take a break with coffee too.
MugiNow I really want to go! If I can drink, snack, and rest all in one place, I’d probably stay way too long.
Hop BroExactly. Beer that fits into everyday life like this really grows on you. If I’m having a pint in Shimosuwa, I’d want to start with a toast at Chiitoko Shoten.
MugiDecision made! I’ll start with the Pale Ale, and Hop, you can have the Kind of Gold. I’m ready to toast right now!
