Friday, April 24: "Hassaku Ale"

The beer pub "Beer Pub Neko to Azarashi" in Shimorenjaku, Mitaka, announced that it will tap KIX BEER's "Hassaku Ale" during business hours on Friday, April 24 from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. The post includes a bottle image that makes it easy to see at a glance that this is a fruit ale made with hassaku citrus.

On the shop's official website, April is listed as a special month for German beer and fruit ales, and this "Hassaku Ale" is positioned as one beer that fits the seasonal theme. It looks set to be part of a monthly program that actively serves beers made with fruit.

Beer Pub Neko to Azarashi is a small, counter-centered beer pub located a 3-minute walk from the south exit of Mitaka Station. It offers 10 taps, and its official website also promotes "pairings with dishes that go well with the day's beers." In addition to vegetable-heavy side dishes, it serves food that pairs well with beer, such as french fries, chili beans, potato salad, meat and fish dishes, and penne.

This announcement also states business hours from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., making it a convenient stop for a fruit ale on the way home from work. For people who like beers with citrus notes, or those who want to take their time enjoying a drink with a meal, this is an opening announcement that is hard to miss.
