Bar FUKURO, a beer pub in Kamata, Tokyo, has added West Coast Brewing’s flagship IPA, "Starwatcher," to its taps. This 7.0% ABV West Coast IPA is known for its citrus character and dank hop aroma. The shop is also advertising a tap takeover on May 22 and 23.
Hop BroWest Coast Brewing’s Starwatcher has been tapped at Bar FUKURO in Kamata. When a flagship IPA gets connected to the taps, the whole place suddenly feels like, "today is a good day."
MugiWait, a flagship IPA is that big of a deal? Just the name sounds powerful, and it’s sparkling before you even drink it!
Hop BroExactly. It’s a West Coast IPA with 7.0% ABV. It’s the kind of beer hop lovers go for, with a dank, pine-and-resin vibe and citrus notes of orange and grapefruit layered on top.
MugiWhat even is dank?! That doesn’t mean the floor is wet, right? Whenever I see it in a beer description, my head just kind of floats away!
Hop BroNo worries there. It’s often used to mean something like the aroma of pine and resin. In other words, Starwatcher is a beer with a very clear aromatic profile, where the hop character really comes forward when you drink it.
MugiI get it now! And it even has berry and melon notes too? It’s like a treasure chest of aromas. One sip and you might see the universe!
Hop BroThe bar is a beer pub around Kamata Station, so it’s nice that it’s easy to drop by. Drinking the classics while chasing newly tapped beers is one of Bar FUKURO’s strengths.
MugiAnd when they post New Tap Beer!!, even people just walking by get pulled in! That’s a trap for beer lovers, right!
Hop BroPlus, there’s a Tap Takeover announcement for May 22 and 23. On the 22nd it’s keg-only, and on the 23rd the hours are longer, so I’m excited to see what comes after Starwatcher too.
MugiWhoa, now I have no choice but to go drink! Let’s taste the contours of hops, follow the next taps too, and raise a glass at Bar FUKURO tonight!
