Hop BroI’ve got news from Argon Brewing by Shiogama Station: they’ve tapped Hello Yamada Lager!
MugiWait, that’s amazing! Just the sound of new tap gets me hyped!
Hop BroAnd it’s a Yamada Nishiki rice lager at ABV 5.5%, so it’s a crisp, clean style.
MugiWhat is that exactly?! What kind of thing is a rice lager? If you put rice in it, does it turn into sake?
Hop BroGood question. Using rice tends to make the body lighter and the beer cleaner on the palate. It doesn’t turn into sake.
MugiOhhh! So if IPA has left your mouth tired, this sounds perfect as a refreshing change of pace!
Hop BroAnd the post also mentioned a light-drinking set for 1,500 yen. Two half pints plus two kinds of snacks is a strong deal.
MugiThat’s the kind of thing that turns waiting time into a reward if you stop in while waiting for a train! Perfect for a pre-drink too!
Hop BroArgon Brewing has a great local feel, and this time the lager’s lightness is on full display, so it’s the perfect first pint.
MugiDecision made! Tonight it’s a station-front craft pint in Shiogama, and we’re going to raise a glass together!
