CAMADO Anniversary Beer "ICCHAN ESB" Tapped and TTO at Grau Craft beer bar in Fujimino
At Grau Craft beer bar in Fujimino, Saitama, CAMADO's anniversary beer "ICCHAN ESB" will be tapped and a tap takeover will be held on April 18. The previous day, April 17, will be the final day of the first stamp rally.
Hop BroThe CAMADO anniversary beer in Fujimino will be tapped at Grau Craft beer bar on April 18. There'll even be a tap takeover, so tonight is looking like a pretty intense one.
MugiWhoa, what exactly is a tap takeover? Like one brewery takes over all the taps? That sounds super event-like!
Hop BroExactly. It's a day when one brewery's beers are lined up all at once. This time, along with CAMADO's "ICCHAN ESB," there are beers from NAMACHAん Brewing, BLACK TIDE BREWING, and NARA Brewing Co., so it's a four-beer lineup you can enjoy.
Mugi"ICCHAN ESB" already sounds interesting just from the name! But what is ESB supposed to mean? The beer world suddenly gets very English!
Hop BroESB stands for Extra Special Bitter, and it's all about malty depth and richness. Rather than being overly bitter, it's the kind of beer where you can really savor the malt, and as an anniversary beer it tends to have a calm but festive feel.
MugiI see! So "Re:NAMAGrauzy (Hazy IPA)" must be totally different, right? Hazy IPA is the cloudy one, isn't it?
Hop BroThat's right. A Hazy IPA is a style that lets the hop aroma bloom softly while keeping the bitterness gentler. And since it's followed by an unfiltered lager and a sake yeast beer, the character differences should stand out more and more the more you drink.
MugiWow, that's the kind of lineup that's fun to compare! And Grau Craft beer bar even does three-beer tasting flights, right? Super friendly for beginners!
Hop BroExactly. Plus they have spice curry, smoked items, and fried potatoes, so the food makes the beer even more interesting. Waiting for the tapping near Nima Shimmei Shrine while snacking on spice curry sounds like a pretty happy way to spend the evening.
MugiI totally want to go now! The fact that April 17, the day before, is the final day of the first stamp rally makes it even more interesting, and seeing the moment of tapping would definitely get me hyped!
Hop BroYeah, this is definitely an event that gives you a real reason to drink in Fujimino. From a glass of CAMADO to a side-by-side tasting, let's go in with the assumption that we'll be emptying our glasses today.
MugiAgreed! First "ICCHAN ESB," then the Hazy IPA, and then the lager too... I just can't stop thinking about drinking right now!
"Grau Craft beer bar" in Nima, Fujimino City, Saitama, is a beer pub near Nima Shimmei Shrine. It has six taps, mainly featuring domestic breweries, and also offers three-beer tasting flights. It also serves bottles and cans, along with snacks such as spice curry, smoked items, and fried potatoes, making it a place where you can relax and compare beers at your own pace.
A post on Instagram announced that a "CAMADO anniversary beer tapping & TTO" will be held on April 18. The lineup listed for the TTO includes CAMADO's "ICCHAN ESB," NAMACHAん Brewing's "Re:NAMAGrauzy (Hazy IPA)," BLACK TIDE BREWING's "Days Over ver.9.0 (Unfiltered Lager)," and NARA Brewing Co.'s "UNDERWATER:LUMINOUS (Sake Yeast Beer)." The post also refers to the already-finished "99.9" and says that stamps can be collected for the other beers as well.
The range of beers is very much in keeping with this bar. "ICCHAN ESB," the ESB, is centered on a malty richness and depth, while the Hazy IPA "Re:NAMAGrauzy" should offer the gentle aroma that comes from its Grau collaboration. With an unfiltered lager and a sake yeast beer following after that, the differences in character should become clearer the more you drink through the night. It looks set to be an event in Fujimino where you can enjoy everything from the moment of tapping to side-by-side comparisons.
