Hop BroMugi-chan, today I’m focusing on the beer pub in Togoshi Ginza. At drifter’s stand, four beers from Mugizakkoku Kobo in Ogawa Town, Saitama, are on tap.
MugiWhat! You can drink all four kinds at once? That’s not a tasting anymore, it’s a little beer field trip!
Hop BroExactly. The lineup is Zakkoku Weizen, Ogawa Porter, Haru no Ogawa, and IRODORI Saison Green Citrus. The balance between classics and new releases is great.
MugiWeizen sounds kind of difficult... is that the one they call a white-style beer?
Hop BroThat’s right. Weizen is known for its soft mouthfeel from wheat, and Mugizakkoku Kobo’s Zakkoku Weizen also makes the grain-derived body easy to feel.
MugiOhh! So Ogawa Porter is the opposite, with a dark and heavy feel?
Hop BroIt looks calm, but the toasty aroma from the roasted malt is the star. It’s dark, but the finish is clean, and it’s the kind that builds up to something tasty.
MugiWhat is that! Haru no Ogawa has such a cute name, and just hearing a seasonal beer makes me want to drink it.
Hop BroAnd IRODORI Saison Green Citrus adds the refreshing citrus brightness of a saison’s light, lively drinkability. It seems like something you could sip smoothly even while strolling around town.
MugiWhen I hear saison, it suddenly feels too stylish, but does light, lively drinkability basically mean you can gulp it down?
Hop BroThat’s it. Start by getting the foundation with Zakkoku Weizen and Ogawa Porter, then look at the breadth with Haru no Ogawa and IRODORI Saison Green Citrus, and you’ll get a good sense of Mugizakkoku Kobo’s current expression.
MugiAll right, I want to stop by on my walk! With a taste test of the classics and the new releases, today I’m going to stroll through Togoshi Ginza with a beer lover’s eye!
