BEER MARROW in Kichijoji opens Far Yeast's Off Trail Gimme Those Fairy Wings and six more taps
BEER MARROW, a beer pub in Kichijoji, updated its tap list on July 21. The lineup is led by Far Yeast Brewing's Off Trail Gimme Those Fairy Wings and also includes beers from DD4D, WEST COAST BREWING, RIO BREWING & CO., BLACK TIDE BREWING, Totopia Brewing, and Hansharo Beer.
Hop BroToday’s update from BEER MARROW in Kichijoji is strong: seven beers on tap for July 21, plus a record-spinning night in the pub.
MugiWhat! Bring-your-own records with craft beer? That is way too much fun packed into one place!
Hop BroThe headline pour is Far Yeast Brewing’s Off Trail Gimme Those Fairy Wings, and the style is a Barrel Aged Sour Ale.
MugiWait, what is a Barrel Aged Sour Ale? That sounds less like beer and more like a wizard class.
Hop BroIn plain terms, it’s a tart beer aged in wooden barrels for more depth. This one uses a 27-month aged base of sour red ale and sour blonde ale, then layers in berries and morello cherry.
MugiWhoa, 27 months of aging is longer than my entire craft beer phase! Berries and cherry with acidity sounds fancy though.
Hop BroThat’s the hook. But the smart part is the broad style lineup overall: DD4D’s "ALTERING" is a Golden Ale, and WCB’s "WCB Light" is an Extra Dry American Lager.
MugiNice, so there’s something easygoing too. But then "SOCIAL GRAVITY" hits me with DDH Hazy DIPA, and my brain just tripped over the alphabet.
Hop BroDDH basically means extra hop loading, and Hazy DIPA means juicy, cloudy, aroma-forward beer. Then you’ve also got "Full Power," "Sirenphobia," and "M SHAKE MATCHA" for a matcha milkshake twist.
MugiThat is excellent. A lineup that runs from crisp lager to sour plus matcha means a whole group could order totally different beers and still win.
MugiAnd all of this is happening in a fourth-floor beer pub with records playing? That is perfect for a Kichijoji night.
Hop BroExactly. You start with a lager, wander through the hazy stuff, and finish with the fairy wings sour like it’s the final track on the record.
