Hop BroHere’s a good one: at Ushitora Ichigoten in Shimokitazawa-Daita, Ushitora Brewery has started pouring their new beer, “#1000.”
MugiWhat, #1000 sounds like a secret game code! Why is it such a big deal?
Hop BroIt’s a commemorative release marking the company’s 20th anniversary and their 1,000th brew batch, and it clocks in at 12% ABV.
MugiWait, 12% ABV? That’s not a beer, that’s a final boss with foam!
Hop BroThe fun part is the style is still undisclosed, so you go in without assumptions and just taste the celebration itself.
MugiHold on, what even is a brew batch? Is this some kind of monk-level brewing training?
Hop BroA batch means one full brewing cycle, so this is literally their 1,000th time brewing. That kind of history ends up in the glass.
MugiOhh! And since it’s their own place, you can drink their house draft right there, right? That’s exciting even for beginners!
Hop BroExactly. Draft from the keg means a fresher pour, and the bar usually has 20-plus beers rotating by the day.
MugiAnd with fish and chips and even red miso pizza, I seriously want to go for the Saturday unveiling!
Hop BroA high-ABV limited beer like this is best savored slowly at the pub, and that’s the kind of thing only the flagship bar really delivers.
MugiThen it’s settled. One celebration pint in Shimokitazawa for sure. You sip slowly, I chug with excitement... actually no, 12%, I’m sipping too!
