CraftBeer Bar BRONX taps Y.MARKET's FANTASMA and more on April 11
CraftBeer Bar BRONX in Midori Ward, Saitama City, Saitama Prefecture, will be open continuously from 11:30 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. on Saturday, April 11. The lineup included Y.MARKET BREWING's FANTASMA, Baird Brewing's Imperial IPA, and Matsumoto Brewery's Gekizaka Golden Mild Ale, offering taps with distinctly different personalities.
Hop BroThe fact that CraftBeer Bar BRONX in Higashi-Urawa opens at 11:30 with continuous service on 4/11 is already a strong move. A beer pub where you can drink from noon is enough to put it in the running all by itself.
MugiWhat, 11:30 to 23:00!? Being able to drink at lunch and at night both, isn't that hard to pace yourself!
Hop BroThe highlights for the day are the three beers: Y.MARKET BREWING's FANTASMA, Baird Brewing's Imperial IPA, and Matsumoto Brewery's Gekizaka Golden Mild Ale. The lineup is nicely varied in direction, so side-by-side tasting should be fun.
MugiWhat is that, Gekizaka Golden Mild Ale sounds like an event on its own, doesn't it? It's Gekizaka, but mild?
Hop BroThat's the interesting part. Golden Mild Ale is a style that's easy to imagine having a light malt character as its charm. It's the kind that's not a big punch, but something you can savor gradually.
MugiOhh! So how is FANTASMA, does that thing called the contours of hops come through?
Hop BroExactly. FANTASMA is an IPA you want to enjoy for its aroma and bitterness. Imperial IPA is also on the more powerful side, just like its name, and today's tap lineup is basically a clash of personalities.
MugiWhoa, the tasting lineup is too strong! And there are even the regular three kinds of Super Dry, so the choices are completely jammed up!
Hop BroWith Kuroda pour, Super Cold, and Extra Cold available, you can enjoy the difference in how it's poured even with the same Super Dry. Having Maruef, Kuro Nama, Orion, Peroni, and Urquell is pretty reassuring too.
MugiAnd if there's Okinawan food too, then beer and food are both covered! Places like this are the kind you end up lingering in.
Hop BroExactly. You can relax and drink at the counter, or pair it with a meal, and BRONX feels like a reliable spot in Higashi-Urawa. Today, you'll end up wanting to debate whether to start with FANTASMA or go straight at Imperial IPA.
MugiI'll start with one drink, or maybe two? A day where you can toast from noon is just too good!
CraftBeer Bar BRONX, operating near Higashi-Urawa Station, is a beer pub boasting up to 21 taps. On Saturday, April 11, it was open continuously from 11:30 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., with happy hour starting at 11:30. It was a day that clearly showed how convenient it is for lunchtime drinks or a quick stop for a single beer.
The craft beer lineup for the day featured three beers: Y.MARKET BREWING's FANTASMA, Baird Brewing's Imperial IPA, and Matsumoto Brewery's Gekizaka Golden Mild Ale. From an IPA that lets you enjoy the contours of hops, to a powerful beer true to its name, and a golden-ale-style beer you can imagine as having a light malt character, the range for side-by-side tasting was clearly defined.
No shortage of regular options either. Asahi Super Dry was available in three pours: Kuroda pour, Super Cold, and Extra Cold. Asahi Draft Beer "Maruef" and "Kuro Nama" were also on the lineup. In addition, Orion The Draft, Peroni Nastro Azzurro, and Pilsner Urquell were all available, making for a lineup that caters to both craft fans and lager fans.
The interior has a relaxed counter that makes it easy to stop in for a drink, and the food menu, centered on Okinawan cuisine, is also extensive. While putting beer at the center, BRONX naturally lets you continue on to a meal as well. It's the kind of place you'd want to keep in mind on a day when you want to settle in and drink in Higashi-Urawa.
