Hop BroToday is the March 19 tap update story, and Beer Bar Festa Shimokitazawa is rolling out 12 domestic and international beers all at once!
MugiWhoa! 12 domestic and international beers on tap in Shimokitazawa? That's way too serious for a weekday!
Hop BroEven just the Japanese lineup has Hansharo Beer's Golden Cannon, Matsue Beer Heun's Sansho White Ale, and Iwate Kura's Sanriku Oyster Stout, so it's a cross-style lineup.
MugiWhat is that! They even have overseas stuff like Tangerine Hazy IPA, and my barley brain is in traffic jam trying to figure out what hoppy beers are!
Hop BroIn simple terms, it means aroma first. For example, if you use dry hopping to bring out citrusy notes, it becomes a beer where the aroma comes first.
MugiOhh! So Puyara's Cozy Night and Echoes' beer are the kind you choose for the aroma-first pour!
Hop BroExactly, and the post says Yona Yona Ale, Weekend Journey, and also Cozy Night and Monks Indiscretion are down to just a few left.
MugiWow, better hurry! It's near the station at Daishin Building 5F, 2-9-1 Kitazawa, so choosing tonight's drink has basically become a mission!
Hop BroAnd Festa is a craft beer and darts bar, so the fact that you can compare beers while hanging out is a strength, and on March 29 they also have a cherry-blossom outing planned.
MugiPrep inside, then do a field test at the cherry-blossom picnic - that's the best. My throat is already in craft mode!
Hop BroThen it's settled, let's start our beer tasting tonight at Beer Bar Festa Shimokitazawa and go after them before they run out!
The beer pub Beer Bar Festa (Festa) Shimokitazawa, located on the 5th floor of the Daishin Building at 2-9-1 Kitazawa near Shimokitazawa Station, posted its tap list for Thursday, March 19 on Instagram. True to the shop's craft beer and darts focus, the lineup gives you plenty to choose from even on a weeknight.
This time, the domestic lineup includes Hansharo Beer's "Golden Cannon," Repubrew's "Black Mist of Bamberg," Matsue Beer Heun's "Sansho White Ale," Iwate Kura's "Sanriku Oyster Stout," Rio Brewing Co.'s "Tipsy," and Yokohama Bay Brewing's "Weekend Journey." In addition, the standard "Heartland" is also available. The post notes that "Yona Yona Ale" and "Weekend Journey" are down to the last few left.
The overseas beers are Thornbridge's "Double Green Mountain," Lucky End Rope's "Tangerine Hazy IPA," Puyara's "Cozy Night," and Echoes' "Monks Indiscretion." Here too, "Cozy Night" and "Monks Indiscretion" are down to the last few left. From distinctive Japanese brews to overseas hoppy styles, the appeal of the day is that it's easy to compare beers across styles.
The post also mentions a cherry-blossom-viewing event planned for Sunday, March 29, scheduled to be held at Ryokudo Park. In addition to a drink inside the shop, Festa also carries things over into an outdoor drinking event, which is very on-brand. For anyone who wants to enjoy craft beer casually but still properly appreciate the labels, it makes for a clear reason to stop by Shimokitazawa.
