At Mizue's 444 BEYOND, three labels including "SHAKUNAGE" are featured, with one slot marked Coming soon
The beer pub "444 BEYOND" in Mizue has released its tap list for May 26. GROUNDTAP BREWERY's Hazy IPA "SHAKUNAGE," NARA BREWING CO.'s gose, and KAMIKATZ BEER's pale ale are on tap, with one slot listed as Coming soon.
Hop BroToday's Mizue has an interesting tap selection at 444 BEYOND. The May 26 lineup is hazy, gose, and pale ale, which is irresistible for anyone who loves comparing beers.
MugiWhoa, that came in strong! Still, seeing three beers lined up is already exciting enough, but what kind of beers are they?
Hop BroFirst is GROUNDTAP BREWERY's SHAKUNAGE. It's a Hazy IPA at ABV 6.5%, with Pekko hops taking center stage. It has grapefruit-like aromas layered with melon-like juiciness, and honestly, it's very much of the moment.
MugiPekko hops, what even is that! And a juicy Hazy too? Is it fruit juice or beer? My brain can't keep up!
Hop BroNo juice is added, but the way the aroma is built makes it feel that way. Hazy IPA is all about the haze and hop aroma, with a refreshing finish that calls for another glass. It's the kind of beer that makes you grin every time you drink it.
MugiThe next one is from NARA BREWING CO., right! BEER AFTER SAUNA OKAWARI sounds like it'll put me in perfect balance already, but what does a gose taste like?
Hop BroIt's a Gose at ABV 3.0%, so it's light and easygoing. The acidity is restrained, and the lychee and bergamot aromas slip through cleanly. The lychee and bergamot linger into the aftertaste, making it just right for hot days or after a bath.
MugiWhoa, it's practically posing as a post-sauna drink! But with the lower ABV, it does sound easy to drink. It feels perfect for the coming season.
Hop BroAnd then there's KAMIKATZ BEER's KAMIKATSU PALE ALE. It's an English Pale Ale at ABV 5.0%, with malty sweetness, toasty caramel notes, and a tea-like brightness. It's strong as a beer with food, and it doesn't get boring no matter how many glasses you have.
MugiThat sounds like it'd pair well with food! And the shop is supposed to be easy for solo drinking, right? I really like that easy-to-stop-by atmosphere.
Hop BroExactly. It's non-smoking inside, open from 16:00 to 22:00, with last order at 21:30. And one slot is Coming soon, so the tap rotation is part of the fun too.
MugiThat's it then, I'm definitely stopping by Mizue! Following the current craft beer scene is making me want a pint too!
