MOONRISE KINGDOM taps Y.MARKET's 'BEER-TEX #1.3 Rainy Jacket,' plus two HIMITSU BEER releases
The beer pub MOONRISE KINGDOM in Nishi-Shinjuku announced guest and bottle beer arrivals in a Thursday post. In addition to Y.MARKET's American IPA, HIMITSU BEER's 'Wanistachio' and 'KAWAUSO Kiyari' are also on the lineup, making for a selection that pairs well with seasonal food.
Hop BroAt MOONRISE KINGDOM in Nishi-Shinjuku, BEER-TEX #1.3 has been tapped. It's Y.MARKET's American IPA, and this Thursday's arrival notice is a pretty hot one.
MugiWhoa! Just the name Rainy Jacket sounds stylish! But isn't IPA just bitter?
Hop BroThat's the thing: it's not just bitter. You get berries and white peach, plus pineapple, marmalade, and even stone fruit. It's a gold-colored American IPA with a real layered aroma.
MugiHuh, but stone fruit sounds kind of technical. Is that like fruit made of rocks?
Hop BroBasically, it's that peach/apricot family of aromas. Add Y.MARKET's signature hop definition on top, and you get an IPA with real body.
MugiI see! And there are two HIMITSU BEER bottles too, right? The names alone have me curious!
Hop BroThere are. The pistachio-infused Wanistachio is a Pistachio Weizen, and the other one, KAWAUSO Kiyari, is a NOBLE IPA. It's interesting because even with such strong personalities, the lineup is still built to go with food.
MugiA pistachio weizen is basically a beer that tastes like a dessert! Wow, I really want to try it!
Hop BroAnd the food is great too. There's a butter sauté of mountain vegetables and smoked bacon, calamondin bruschetta, BBQ steak tacos, and squid-ink pasta. MOONRISE KINGDOM's style is to pair beer with seasonal ingredients and Mexican dishes.
MugiThat's amazing! If it's a small counter spot where you can stop in for lunch or at night, I'd want to drop by on a whim.
Hop BroExactly. The strong point is that you can enjoy a quick drink without any fuss. It feels like welcome at lunch and at night, so from Rainy Jacket to Wanistachio, I'd want to hop around there today.
MugiYeah, just reading that made my throat dry up! This is exactly the kind of article that makes you say I want to go drink right now!
At the Nishi-Shinjuku beer pub MOONRISE KINGDOM, the Thursday beer update was refreshed. The post announced that lunch and dinner service would open on May 14, and introduced Y.MARKET's 'BEER-TEX #1.3 Rainy Jacket' as the guest beer. This gold-colored American IPA is said to feature flavors reminiscent of berries, white peach, pineapple, marmalade, and stone fruit.
The bottle beers are two offerings from Mie's HIMITSU BEER. 'Wanistachio,' made with pistachios, is a Pistachio Weizen, and the other, 'KAWAUSO Kiyari,' is introduced as a NOBLE IPA. It is a lineup with the distinctive character typical of HIMITSU BEER, arranged with food pairing in mind.
The food menu includes a butter sauté of mountain vegetables from Yamaguchi Prefecture (fuki, warabi, tara-no-me) with smoked bacon, bruschetta made with calamondin, BBQ steak tacos, BBQ steak burritos, and squid-ink pasta with squid from Toyama Prefecture. This small, counter-centered shop is easy to stop by for both lunch and nighttime visits, which is part of MOONRISE KINGDOM's appeal. It is a place where you can casually pair seasonal ingredients and Mexican dishes around beer.
