Beer Pub Nekoto Azarashi taps Shiga Kogen Beer’s KASUMI in Mitaka
Beer Pub Nekoto Azarashi in Shimonenju, Mitaka, announced a fresh pour of Shiga Kogen Beer’s KASUMI in its June 12 post. The compact 10-tap pub also listed beers from Johana, Sanktgallen, Minoh, and more, while weekday happy hour continues.
Hop BroA good update out of Mitaka today: Beer Pub Neko to Azarashi just tapped KASUMI. It showed up in their June 12 post as the newest pour.
MugiWait, that pub name alone already has me interested, and now there is a fresh keg too? KASUMI sounds way too cool.
Hop BroAnd KASUMI is from Shiga Kogen Beer, a 4.5% Hazy Session IPA. It should be aromatic and juicy, but still easy to keep drinking.
MugiWhoa, hold on. Hazy Session what now? You dropped that like a spell, and my brain just turned into foam.
Hop BroThat part matters. Hazy means cloudy-looking, session means built to drink comfortably, so basically it is cloudy but easygoing IPA.
MugiOkay, that helps! And the article says they have 10 taps on right now, right? Watermelon wheat to stout in one lineup is dangerous for my self-control.
Hop BroExactly. They have IPA, pale ale, wheat, stout, pilsner, Berliner Weisse, Marzen, and weizen, so the style range is huge. You could practically run a tasting class there.
MugiSeriously? Berliner Weisse and Marzen both on the list? Those names sound like they require a license to pronounce.
Hop BroThink of Berliner Weisse as bright and tart, and Marzen as smooth and malty. The place is compact too, with 9 counter seats and four two-person tables, and the weekday happy hour runs 5:00 to 6:30 p.m. with 100 yen off each beer.
MugiThen I want to get there early, start with KASUMI, and pair everything with the gapao rice. I am fully in the mood for beer now.
