Hop BroKagurazaka’s BEER BAR Bitter opens at 4 p.m. today, and this five-tap lineup is seriously strong.
MugiWhat! It’s not just beer, they’ve got returning food favorites too? The second I heard quiche Lorraine, my stomach already walked in.
Hop BroAnd the list is stacked: Vedett Extra White, Burnish Festbier, the collab bitter ORDINARY on tap, TALEA’s OUTDOORSIE, and Barebottle’s Jurassic Juice.
MugiHold on, Festbier means festival beer, right? Because my brain just started playing fairground music.
Hop BroPretty much, yeah. Festbier leans lager-like for autumn celebrations, with rounded malt depth and an easy-drinking finish.
MugiOh wow! Then with Vedett Extra White, this white beer style... is it actually white? Because if it looks like milk, I’m panicking.
Hop BroMore hazy than white, really, with that Belgian softness and a little spice. It’s got a gentle yeast-driven aroma floating through it.
MugiWait, that yeast-driven aroma thing, what even is that? This suddenly sounds like science class, but delicious?
Hop BroExactly. Think bread and citrus notes that feel approachable. Then you move into OUTDOORSIE’s West Coast IPA and Jurassic Juice’s dense Hazy IPA character, and the whole flight makes sense.
MugiSo you can build from a light first pour to full-on hop mode, and with quiche Lorraine, chili beans, and braised chicken, the first glass could turn into an all-night stay.
Hop BroThat’s the beauty of it. Match the taps with the food and one stop becomes a full little journey. Bitter really nails the pleasure of progression.
MugiThat settles it. I really want a slow first pint in Kagurazaka tonight... and probably a second and third too!
