Eight Kegs, Including Akita Akura, Shiga Kogen, and Burnt Mill, Arrive at NEIGHBOR in Nogata
The beer pub NEIGHBOR in Nogata, Tokyo, has announced a tap list of eight beers in total, including Akita Akura Beer, Beppu Brewery, Shiga Kogen Beer, and Burnt Mill Brewery. It is also the final day of NEIGHBOR TACOS, so this is a setup where you can enjoy food and beer from midday.
Hop BroNogata's NEIGHBOR is really going hard today with a total of eight taps. And because it's the final day of NEIGHBOR TACOS and they open at 12:00 noon, it's basically calling to the daytime drinkers.
MugiWait, tacos and beer from noon? That's too perfect! Hearing that makes my work schedule suddenly look very thin!
Hop BroThe lineup is broad too, which is great. They've got everything from lager to IPA, including Akita Akura Beer's Akita Ginjo Beer, Shiga Kogen Beer's SNOW MONKEY IPA, and Burnt Mill Brewery.
MugiHey, what is a West Coast Pale Ale!? Is that a beer that makes you feel the ocean breeze? Or does it have the cheerfulness that can only be harvested on the West Coast?
Hop BroIn simple terms, it's a crisp, bitter style. Something like Burnt Mill Brewery's Diamond Lake, with a clear hop profile and a sharp aroma and finish.
MugiI see! Then I'm most curious about Yuagari Pils first! If you write 'floral with a gentle citrus note,' it already sounds perfect as a first beer!
Hop BroThat's a really good pick. Beppu Brewery's Yuagari Pils is a light, easy-drinking pilsner, so it's ideal to start with and then expand your palate from there.
MugiBut Don Jalapeño sounds like it's already serious just from the name! A chili-infused IPA means it's spicy even though it's beer? Wait, my mouth is going on an adventure!
Hop BroExactly, that's what's interesting about it. DD4D Brewing's spice-driven IPA has the heat of chili peppers colliding with hop bitterness, so it changes character every time you drink it. And there's also a lime curd sour like Limestone, so it's friendly to sour fans too.
MugiWhoa, if they even have carnitas and nachos, it's unbeatable. Start with tacos, reset your palate with a sour, finish with an IPA - that's a perfect blueprint for happiness!
Hop BroIn typical NEIGHBOR fashion, the beer and food pairing is the best part. Today I'd want to drink slowly from noon and finish with Shiga Kogen's SNOW MONKEY IPA or Burnt Mill.
MugiIt's decided then! Today is one of those days where you daytime drink in Nogata and end up not wanting to go home. I'll be the person staring at a glass with a taco in hand!
