Hop BroNEIGHBOR, a beer pub in Nogata, has eight distinctive beers on tap. It really makes you want to build a tasting flight!
MugiWhoa, eight beers! Does that mean a craft-beer adventure in Nogata?
Hop BroExactly. The standout is the VERTERE collaboration, Pyracantha NZ Pale Ale. It is a 5.5% pale ale showcasing aromatic New Zealand hops.
MugiNew Zealand hops? Do hops have their own hometowns too? Now I want to read every hop’s résumé!
Hop BroThey do. Varieties and origins change the aroma; New Zealand hops can feel tropical or citrusy. Think of them as the beer’s aroma specialists.
MugiOh, like perfume! But I am also curious about Bui-esu Soba Ale—an ale made with buckwheat?
Hop BroIt is a 6.5% beer from Himitsu Beer with buckwheat character. “Ale” means top fermentation, or simply a method that highlights aroma.
MugiWhat! That sounds like drinkable New Year’s soba for someone who loves both beer and noodles—season totally optional!
Hop BroThere is also CRAFTROCK BREWING’s Margarita-style Gose and Revision’s West Coast IPA. The range runs from light Golden Ale to hop-forward bitterness.
MugiAnd the limited Korean Style Pork Burger! With kkakdugi, scallion kimchi, ssamjang, and Korean seaweed, I want to pair it with Gose and IPA!
Hop BroIt is inspired by samgyeopsal, so beer’s carbonation should cut through the pork’s richness beautifully. That is a perfect beer-and-grill pairing.
MugiLet’s go to NEIGHBOR in Nogata, Nakano! I want eight taps and a limited burger, plus a strategy meeting over our first cheers!
