The beer pub Himalaya table in Kanda, Tokyo, has announced its tap list for Tuesday, March 31. Eight beers, including Mojiko Retro Beer, Oni Densetsu, Brasserie Knot, and Minoh Beer, are on offer, ranging from pale ale to IPA and rye beer.
Hop BroToday’s Himalaya table has a pretty interesting set of 8 beers for March 31. From Mojiko Retro Beer to Oni Densetsu, Brasserie Knot, and Minoh Beer, the lineup is almost too luxurious for a drink on the second floor in Kanda.
MugiWait, eight beers!? A tap list can have that much personality all at once? Just looking at the menu is making me feel tipsy!
Hop BroThe main highlights are Mojiko Retro Beer’s pale ale and Oni Densetsu’s "Kinki Pale Ale CGX Nelson Single Ver." It’s perfect for comparing hop aroma, and even within the same pale ale style, the character is completely different.
MugiHey, what is CGX Nelson? That sounds like a spell, and it’s scary. Do beer names really have such complicated symbols in them?
Hop BroCGX is a type of hop processing method, and Nelson Single Ver. means it uses only Nelson Sauvin. In short, it’s designed to spotlight hop character, so you’re likely to get white grape-like notes and a refreshing aroma.
MugiI get it, so it’s a hop comparison! Then if Brasserie Knot’s "MOON-DOUBLE IPA-" and Minoh Beer’s "Blooming IPA" are there too, the differences in aroma sound amazing!
Hop BroExactly, and because there are multiple IPA-style beers on the taps that day, it’s easy to do an aroma comparison. On top of that, ogna’s "Hima Bitter" and Y Market’s "Inabu Vintage" add some serious drinking depth as well.
MugiWait, what’s a Dortmunder!? Another new word just showed up. The unknown vocabulary is really energetic today!
Hop BroA Dortmunder is a style that balances maltiness and drinkability well, so it’s easy to feel the malt richness. Add in ogna’s "Apple Hop
MugiHimalaya table is nice because it’s easy to stop by after work. If I could sample such a wide range of taps in Kanda, Tokyo, all my fatigue from today would turn into foam and disappear!
Hop BroThat’s exactly it: it’s the coexistence of classics and individuality. You can enjoy both easy-drinking beers and more substantial ones in a single spot, and that’s Himalaya table’s strength. What’s left on tap depends on the timing, but this is definitely the kind of list that makes you want to head out for a drink tonight, Mugi.
MugiYeah, I’m completely in the mood to drink tonight! With pale ale, IPA, and rye beer all lined up, it’s perfect for hunting down my “next beer”!
