Minoh Beer and Johana Beer debut new taps at Meguro's THE DODO HOUSE, with all 8 varieties on offer
Craft Beer & Wine THE DODO HOUSE announced on April 12 the new taps Minoh Beer "Nice Bitter" and Johana Beer "Golden Spark." The full eight-tap lineup also includes Nanshinshu Beer, Kankiku Brewery, Baeren, and more.
Hop BroThe lineup at Meguro's THE DODO HOUSE on April 12 is pretty fun with all 8 taps. Minoh Beer and Johana Beer are in the new taps, and the all-day service from noon onward is strong too.
MugiWait, you can drink from afternoon until night straight through!? That's basically a beer marathon!
Hop BroExactly, the nice thing is being able to take your time from 14:00 to 24:00. First up is Minoh Beer's Nice Bitter; it has a lovely balance of toasty caramel character, malt, and hops.
MugiBitter means it tastes bitter, right? But ordinary bitter sounds kind of strong just from the name...!
Hop BroHere, bitter doesn't mean sharply bitter; it refers to that British-style, pleasantly restrained bitterness. So it's the kind of beer you drink for the balance of toastiness and bitterness, and it's easy to pair with food.
MugiI see! Then what kind of beer is Johana Beer's Golden Spark?
Hop BroThis is a spice ale with ginger aroma up front. The shift away from its sweet aroma is easy to notice, and it's nice that it's also a lower-alcohol beer.
MugiGinger aroma sounds like it would warm your body right up! That phrase "the switch from sweet" makes me want to try it even more.
Hop BroAnd it's not just the new taps either. Having Nanshinshu Beer's Oguna Biscuit Hop, Kankiku Brewery's Helles, and Baeren's Rye Ale on top of that is impressive. The appeal of DODO HOUSE is that you can see such a wide range of styles in one place.
MugiWait, hold on, they have IPA and Hazy IPA too!? They even have a refuge for hop lovers!
Hop BroThat's right. They even have Y Market Brewing's Super IPA and Udon Brewing's Yuzu Oroshi Udon Hazy IPA, so both the bold and the balanced are covered. With everything from light to rich on hand, it's a lineup that works no matter who you go with.
MugiAlright, maybe start with a bitter to see how it goes, then finish with a Hazy! Today really feels like there's no reason not to go drinking!
