Beerbar Festa Shimokitazawa posts 11-beer tap list for June 26
Beerbar Festa Shimokitazawa shared its June 26 tap list, led by Setouchi's Apricot Weizen and a mix of Japanese and overseas taps. The bar opens at 6 p.m., and Friday service runs until 4 a.m.
Hop BroShimokita is looking dangerous today. Beer Bar Festa Shimokitazawa posted its June 26 tap list: 5 domestic beers, 5 imports, plus Heartland as the regular for 11 total.
MugiWhat! Eleven beers total? I'd get decision paralysis before the first sip. And it's only two minutes from the station?
Hop BroThe first one grabbing me is Setouchi's Apricot Weizen. It's fruity, wheat-based, and feels perfect for the opening round.
MugiWait, weizen is what exactly? It sounds cute, but my beer vocabulary just fell off a cliff!
Hop BroPut simply, it's a wheat ale. The texture tends to be soft and foamy, and with apricot on top, this one should drink light and bright.
MugiOkay, that sounds like dessert with plausible deniability. Then Kozaru IPA looks adorable, but is it secretly all business on bitterness?
Hop BroExactly. IPA is about hop-driven bitterness, and Kozaru IPA is already running low. Hansharo's Coco Farm & Winery White and DDC!'s Petit Moral are nearly gone too.
MugiHold on, West Coast Pilsner sounds like either a spell or a road trip. What makes it 'West Coast'?
Hop BroNot a spell, just a flavor direction. Think crisp bitter finish and punchier aroma. Then the import side stretches from Knee Deep's Folsom Haze to Left Hand's Milk Stout.
MugiWhoa, from fruity to stout in one lineup? That's basically a beer theme park. Even that DDC! rosé beer sounds tempting on name alone!
Hop BroAnd the place has darts in the room, so it works for solo drinking or a second stop. They're also teasing a July 4-5 station-front pop-up for the Shimokitazawa Music Festival, but this tap list is the immediate mission.
MugiThen it's settled. From the first pour of Apricot Weizen all the way to Milk Stout, I want to run the whole course!
Beerbar Festa Shimokitazawa, on the 5th floor of the Daishin Building just a two-minute walk from Shimokitazawa Station, published its tap list for Friday, June 26.
