Tokyo ∞ Kei Taps the 5th Omori Station 150th Anniversary Beer, "German Street Weizen"
At Tokyo ∞ Kei, a beer pub in Sanno, Omori, the fifth beer in the Omori Station 150th anniversary commemorative series, "German Street Weizen," has arrived. Inspired by the history of Tokyo German School once being located in Sanno, it can be enjoyed inside the venue, where eight taps of draft beer line the counter.
The fifth installment, reflecting Omori's history
At Tokyo ∞ Kei, "German Street Weizen" has been tapped as the fifth beer in the Omori Station 150th anniversary commemorative beer series. As the name suggests, it is a beer tied to German Street in Sanno, Ota Ward, and it takes its background from the history of Tokyo German School, which was located in Sanno from 1925 to 1991.
A fruity, easy-to-drink Weizen
The beer style is Weizen, a wheat beer that originated in southern Germany. The article introduces it as having a fruity, clean flavor compared with the previous third installment, Black IPA, and the fourth installment, Amber Ale. It is also said to be based on the recipe for the early Weizen "GEORGE," making it an especially interesting beer for those familiar with the series.
Why it's worth enjoying at Tokyo ∞ Kei
Tokyo ∞ Kei is the beer bar of Tokyo Sanno Brewery. Centered on Omori Sanno beers poured from eight taps, it is a casual place to enjoy draft beer at the standing counter. The interior also serves as an event space and live house, and the terrace offers a beer-garden atmosphere. It also supports light meals, non-beer drinks, and growler takeout, functioning not just as a place to drink beer, but as a place to experience the atmosphere of the neighborhood itself.
A drink on the third floor in Sanno, along with the story of the area
The shop is on the third floor of the Hakkesaka Building, 2-2-7 Sanno, Ota Ward. Even though it is on the third floor of a building near the station, there is also a terrace beyond the door. Turning Omori place names and history into beer, then drinking that beer in a local setting, is a very Tokyo ∞ Kei way to enjoy it. Whether you know the streets of Omori well or are visiting for craft beer, this is a place where you can take your time enjoying a draft beer with a story.
