At Takashimadaira's Beer Pub Kirigirisu, IPAs from Ushitora and BrewDog Line Up
At Beer Pub Kirigirisu near Takashimadaira Station, the day's draft beer and bottle/can lineup was introduced. Centered on IPAs, it includes Ushitora Brewery's "Lime-Crafted Brut IPA" and BrewDog's "Punk IPA."
Hop BroToday, Beer Pub Kirigirisu near Takashimadaira Station is hot. Both the draft list and the bottles are a lineup that really hits hard for IPA lovers.
MugiWait! Kirigirisu is the name of a shop, not an insect! Just being next to a neighborhood Chinese restaurant already gives it that atmosphere that makes you want to go in.
Hop BroFirst up is Ushitora Brewery's Lime-Crafted Brut IPA. Brut IPA is designed to be crisp and dry, so even though it's an IPA, it's made to go down smoothly.
MugiBrut? What's that! It sounds kind of strong, but the drinking feel is actually light? If I hear 7%, I feel like I'd get tipsy before the beer does...!
Hop BroThat's the interesting part: even though it has an alcoholic presence, the lime nuance makes the finish feel brisk and light. The aroma is fresh too, so it's a good first drink.
MugiOhhh! And BrewDog's Punk IPA on draft feels like a bonus, right? I'm so used to drinking it in bottles or cans that draft feels like a different thing!
Hop BroExactly, even a staple can show a different face on draft. The hop aroma comes forward more easily, and the drinking impression changes even with the same label. That's the kind of thing beer lovers grin at.
MugiWhat, Heller Brewery's SCHLENKERLA RAUCH BIER was also a candidate!? But it was sold out, so it feels like it was too popular and escaped...!
Hop BroInstead, Denver Beer Co.'s Incredible Pedal IPA came in, and in the end the lineup was pretty heavily IPA-focused. Gathering beers from Japan and abroad is part of what makes this place interesting.
MugiAnd the dishes with sold-out signs on the blackboard make it even more exciting! Cajun chicken with grilled green onions and stuff like that are exactly the kind of bites you want to nibble on with beer, right?
Hop BroThat's right, this is a place where it's fun to pair each drink with food. If you're spending a night in Takashimadaira centered on IPA, Kirigirisu is definitely one spot to keep in mind.
MugiI can't take it anymore, just reading this is making my throat ache! Tonight, I want to toast with an IPA!
Beer Pub Kirigirisu is within walking distance of Takashimadaira Station, next to the neighborhood Chinese restaurant Hamaru. In this post, the beers for the day were introduced alongside the dishes written on the blackboard, making it a shot that beer lovers won't want to miss. The shop has a small, counter-focused layout and the easygoing atmosphere of a true beer pub, where you can enjoy your first drink without overthinking it.
The first draft beer that stands out is Ushitora Brewery's "Lime-Crafted Brut IPA." With an ABV of 7%, it is described as having a light drinking feel, and as its name suggests, you can imagine a lime-like nuance in this beer. Next up was BrewDog's "Punk IPA." While it's familiar in bottles and cans, it is relatively rare on draft, which makes it nice to be able to drink a classic brand with a different expression.
As a bottle-beer candidate, Heller Brewery's "SCHLENKERLA RAUCH BIER Marzen" also appeared, but it was out of stock. In its place came Denver Beer Co.'s "Incredible Pedal IPA," and the lineup ended up being IPA-centered from draft through cans. BrewDog's "SANKYU" and "Hyotan" were also mentioned, suggesting that this shop lets you drink across both domestic and international craft beers.
Food is ordered from the blackboard menu, where even sold-out signs can be seen. With dishes like Cajun chicken paired with grilled green onions, the focus is on snacks that go well with beer, and it suits a style of enjoying a bite with each drink rather than eating a full meal. If you're looking for a night centered on IPA in Takashimadaira, this is one place worth remembering.
