Hop BroAt The Grafton Beer Pub & Restaurant in Gotanda, FARM&CIDERY KANESHIGE from Nagano has tapped RICKEY.
MugiWait, a cider on draft!? What's a dry cider even supposed to mean!?
Hop BroIt's made with juniper berries and lime, and the bar is saying it's perfect for hot days.
MugiJuniper berries? Suddenly this is a forest story!? Does it smell like lime?
Hop BroExactly. It's also what gives gin its aroma, and with the lime layered on top, crisp and dry comes forward more than sweetness.
MugiOh, I see! Then beer fans can go for it too. Having British classics and domestic craft side by side is so fun!
Hop BroThey've got Guinness, Hoegaarden, YOKOHAMA XPA, Irish Red, and ESB too - it's basically a department store of draft beer.
MugiBlack Sheep and Uchu Brewing too!? Being able to choose by mood is too strong!
Hop BroAnd they've got fresh oysters and a lamb Guinness stew pie too, so the food is serious enough to keep the drinks going.
MugiThis is dangerous in Gotanda - my throat is already drying out right now!
Hop BroThen tonight, let's start at The Grafton, work our way from RICKEY to British beer, and make it a night where the first pint is decided.
MugiDeal! I'll start with RICKEY, and big bro Hop will probably go for everything, I already want a drink!
