Hop BroBeer House Hobbit in Hirakata just tapped Nomcraft Lager, and that is exactly my kind of news. It's a fresh pour from NOMCRAFT Brewing in Aridagawa, Wakayama.
MugiWhat! A station-side beer pub gets drops like that? That sounds way too dangerous for an after-work detour!
Hop BroThat's the beauty of it. Beer House Hobbit rotates six draft beers daily, and they also carry around 70 bottles. Fresh kegs arriving from breweries across Japan is a serious setup.
MugiWow, but once you say American-style brewing and classic styles, it suddenly feels like class started. So what is this lager actually like?
Hop BroHere's the fun part. Nomcraft Lager uses lager yeast at lower temperatures, so it drinks crisp and pairs easily with everyday food.
MugiYeast on the clock? Why am I picturing tiny employees pulling a cold shift inside a fridge?
Hop BroHonestly, that's not a bad image. In simple terms, it gives you a clean, crisp finish that doesn't fight the food and can even lift it up.
MugiThen zebra eggplant and pork loin steak sounds perfect with it! Even the eggplant name feels overdressed in the best way.
Hop BroExactly. The smoky richness of the eggplant, the savoriness of the pork, and a beer of the day pour of Nomcraft Lager is the whole point of a place like this.
MugiI'm done for, I want that now. A night in Hirakata with rotating draft beer and the best food pairing of the day sounds like something both of us would absolutely go drink for.
