craft beer BLUE updates its taps on March 24, with two new Shared Brewery beers and Yuzu PA
The beer pub craft beer BLUE in Sagamihara, Kanagawa Prefecture, has published its tap list for March 24. Centered on two new beers from Shared Brewery, the lineup spans eight labels from mango ale and yuzu pale ale to chocolate stout, offering a wide range of aromas and drinking profiles. It also makes pairing choices with the food item `Daikon Kimchi♫` part of the fun.
Hop BroSagamihara's beer pub craft beer BLUE has come up with a pretty interesting lineup in its March 24 tap update.
MugiWhoa! So there are that many curveballs in one place? It feels like a huge eight-beer traffic jam, and I'm excited!
Hop BroExactly. This time, the highlight is the two Shared Brewery taps, with `TROPICAL PEAK` and `DDH Double HAZY TROPICS` on at the same time.
MugiWhat's DDH? And with HAZY showing up twice, it sounds strong just from the name, which is a little scary!
Hop BroDDH stands for double dry hop, a brewing method that really boosts the aroma. So `DDH Double HAZY TROPICS` gives the impression of being rich in aroma and leaning juicy.
MugiOhh! So if you want something light and easy, you go with `TROPICAL PEAK`, and if you want to lift your mood, `DDH Double HAZY TROPICS` is the one. Being able to choose by mood is the best!
Hop BroThen you also get `Island Grove`'s Okinawa Mango Ale and `THE PIONEERS`' Yuzu Pale Ale, so the tropical and citrus flow connects beautifully.
MugiMango and yuzu too!? My head is already mixing tropical islands and Japanese flavors, and there are just too many destinations for this taste trip!
Hop BroOn top of that, you've got `サワーノウワサ`, `KLASHER`, `POWER HAZY`, and `Ama no Iwato`, so it's a lineup you can enjoy as if you're climbing a staircase of acidity and bitterness.
MugiEnding with a stout is sneaky too. If you finish with a `Chocolate Stout`, you'll probably feel happy from the roasted aftertaste!
Hop BroAnd if the food item Daikon Kimchi♫ is there, it should transform completely when paired with the sours and hazies. Tonight is the kind of night that makes you want to head up to the second floor near the station for a drink.
MugiI'm completely in! A night of tasting side by side where you play with aromas first and finish strong at the end is definitely going to be delicious!
March 24 highlights on tap
At craft beer BLUE, located on the 2F of Garden Building II in Sagamidai, the Tap List for March 24 was announced. This lineup is neatly spread across styles, from hoppy lager to sour, hazy, and stout. It is the kind of selection that makes one-place tasting comparisons especially satisfying.
The main draw is the simultaneous addition of two taps from Shared Brewery. With `TROPICAL PEAK` (Hoppy Lager) and `DDH Double HAZY TROPICS` (DDH Double Hazy IPA), you can choose both lightness and richness at the same time. In addition, NOMCRAFT Brewing's `Island Grove` (Okinawa Mango Ale) and AFURI BREWING's `THE PIONEERS` (Yuzu Pale Ale) add a fuller range of tropical and citrus aromas.
Also on the board are BREWMIN’'s `サワーノウワサ`, GANGI BREWING's `KLASHER`, Repubrew's `POWER HAZY`, and Nomodachi Brewing's `Ama no Iwato`, creating a lineup where you can trace acidity, bitterness, and roast character in sequence. Paired with fermented foods such as the `Daikon Kimchi♫` mentioned in the post, the contours of the sours and hazies are likely to stand out even more.
A calm beer pub on the second floor in a station-adjacent area, this is a night where you can drink across Japanese craft beer. Starting with a bright, aromatic pour and then shifting toward a stout toward the end looks like the right flow.
