Craft beer kitchen 心の月 posts a six-beer tap list for August 28
Craft beer pub Craft beer kitchen 心の月 in Yokohama’s Noge area shared its August 28 tap list. The lineup includes six beers from Japan and abroad, including Garden Path Fermentation, Nara Brewing, Hop Kotan, Seapine Brewing, and Odawara Garage Brewing, with Chinese dishes on the side.
Hop BroThe August 28 tap list from Craft beer kitchen Kokoro no Tsuki in Noge is seriously strong. They open at 3 p.m., and it is set up so you can enjoy six clean beers with Chinese dishes.
MugiWait, six taps today from the afternoon? That is way too much temptation. If I go to Noge for that, my whole schedule is becoming beer-shaped.
Hop BroAnd the lineup is good too. You have Garden Path Fermentation with The Twisted Branch Out, plus Nara Brewing, Hop Kotan, Odawara Garage Brewing, and Seapine Brewing. Six beers, domestic and overseas, with real balance.
MugiWhoa, Citra Hazy IPA already sounds delicious. Is Citra the citrusy one? And does hazy literally mean cloudy-looking?
Hop BroThat part matters. Hazy IPA usually means a cloudy IPA with a softer mouthfeel and big tropical hop aroma up front. It sounds technical, but the short version is just “fragrant and juicy.”
MugiWhat is that, cloudiness as a reward? The way you say it makes it sound like a dessert. But IPA can also surprise-punch you with bitterness if you let your guard down, right?
Hop BroThat is where beers like Double Swisher come in, along with Hop Kotan’s Iho and Inversion, and Odawara Garage Brewing’s ju-low 2026. Just from the names, you want to compare the aromas and different drinking textures.
MugiInversion and Iho sound less like beers and more like arthouse films. I feel like whichever one I drink first will decide my personality for the rest of the night.
Hop BroAnd the food side is strong too. Mapo tofu and shrimp mayo, plus drool-worthy wontons, steamed chicken with green peppercorn and scallion sauce, fried eggplant with ginger soy, and Shanghai-style noodles. Those dishes can really catch and carry hop aroma and bitterness.
MugiThat mental image of beer and Chinese back-and-forth is enough to make both my stomach and throat start yelling. August 28 at 3 p.m. in Noge suddenly sounds like the perfect plan.
