Hop BroThe Nishi-Shinjuku beer pub MOONRISE KINGDOM has rolled out three new taps along with its April 17 business update.
MugiWhat! And three new taps? That's the kind of thing that makes choosing instantly fun!
Hop BroThe lineup is Tokyo Aleworks' Emerald Paradise IPA, Y.MARKET's Beyond the Grid IPA, and BLACK TIDE's Tohoku Pride~IPL~, so it feels like IPAs and IPLs are gathering together.
MugiWait, wait. I kind of know IPA, but what is IPL? A new code?
Hop BroIn broad terms, IPA is a style that emphasizes hop aroma and bitterness, while IPL is a type brewed with lager yeast for a crisp, easy-drinking finish. So aroma fans and refreshment fans can both enjoy it.
MugiI see! So today you can choose based on your mood. And with 30 bottled beers too, I could probably spend three hours deciding in front of the shelf!
Hop BroExactly, and the food is strong too. They have the MOONRISE burrito, chicken quesadilla, garlic shrimp, and even house-made basil pasta, so you never have to worry about what to pair with your beer.
MugiWhoa, so they're serious about food too! When the meal selection is this good, you end up staying way too long!
Hop BroOn top of that, they're also planning to take part in Vertere's anniversary festival in Okutama this weekend, with a booth serving burritos and tacos. They really know how to make moves, both in Nishi-Shinjuku and at events.
MugiHaving a drink in Nishi-Shinjuku and then getting excited about the festival sounds amazing! From an after-work drink to a weekend trip, there's practically every reason to go out for a beer already!
