Craft Beer 2mugi announces six draft beers, including YOROCCO BEER
Craft Beer 2mugi in Kanda-Izumicho, Akihabara, released its draft lineup as of the evening of May 18. Six kegs are on tap from YOROCCO BEER, brewccoly, CAVE D'OCCI, SWAN LAKE BEER, inkhorn brewing, and TKBrewing, and some taps are already down to low stock.
Hop BroCraft Beer 2mugi in Akihabara's Kanda-Izumicho has released six draft beers. The owner has a Doemens Biersommelier qualification, and the draft lineup is put together really solidly.
MugiWhoa, six taps all at once!? With that many, I feel like I'd panic not knowing which one to drink first!
Hop BroThe lineup features YOROCCO BEER, brewccoly, CAVE D'OCCI, SWAN LAKE BEER, inkhorn brewing, and TKBrewing, so it feels like distinctive breweries from all over Japan have gathered here.
MugiWhat is that, Golden Ale and West coast IPA and everything else just sounds too stylish! My brain can't keep up with how different they are!
Hop BroFor example, TAP1's YOROCCO BEER "Swallow's Humming" is a Golden Ale, while TAP2's brewccoly "Low-Head system" is a West coast IPA, so the way they express bitterness and aroma is quite different. It's good to remember the former as light and breezy, while the latter has a stronger hop presence.
MugiOhhh! So TAP2's newly tapped beer is clean and refreshing, but still hits hard with hops!? I really want to try that!
Hop BroExactly. And TAP3's CAVE D'OCCI "Sun Dance" is a Wheat Ale, while TAP4's SWAN LAKE BEER "Nagi -Nagi-" is a Koln Style Kolsch, and because they are marked LOW STOCK, early is the way to go.
MugiWhen I hear LOW STOCK, it suddenly feels like a battle for the last ones! If I take my time, I might lose out to a sold-out tap!
Hop BroOn top of that, TAP5's inkhorn brewing "Lapwing #2" is a Hazy DIPA, and TAP6's TKBrewing "Kawasakey" is a Red Ale, so the range of flavors is wide too, which is very much this shop's style. Rather than flashiness, it has a lineup of kegs you can happily drink every day.
MugiAnd they even have horsemackerel sashimi, so the beer-and-seafood combo is unbeatable! Pair that with a Golden Ale or Kolsch, and dinner is basically invincible!
Hop BroIf you're stuck in Akihabara, Craft Beer 2mugi is definitely one to remember. You can drink while checking out the good taps of the day, and now I want to have a pint right away too.
MugiI know! I'm already in the mood for making this my stop on the way home. First Low-Head system, then Nagi, and finish with horsemackerel!
The beer pub Craft Beer 2mugi in Kanda-Izumicho, within walking distance of Akihabara Station, has published its "Today's Draft Lineup." The owner is a beer connoisseur with a Doemens Biersommelier qualification, and the appeal of the shop is being able to enjoy draft beer in a calm setting.
There are six taps on this day. The lineup is as follows.
- TAP1: YOROCCO BEER "Swallow's Humming" Golden Ale
- TAP2: brewccoly "Low-Head system" West coast IPA
- TAP3: CAVE D'OCCI BREWING "Sun Dance" Wheat Ale
- TAP4: SWAN LAKE BEER "Nagi -Nagi-" Koln Style Kolsch
- TAP5: inkhorn brewing "Lapwing #2" Hazy DIPA
- TAP6: TKBrewing "Kawasakey" Red Ale
The newly tapped beer being introduced is "Low-Head system" from the Shizuoka-based brewccoly. It is a beer that should offer a clean, refreshing drinkability along with the bitterness and vibrant hop character typical of a West coast IPA. In addition, TAP3 from CAVE D'OCCI BREWING and TAP4 from SWAN LAKE BEER are marked LOW STOCK, so if you want to catch them before they run out, it may be best to visit soon.
For food, the shop is recommending horsemackerel sashimi, and says it pairs well with YOROCCO BEER's Golden Ale and SWAN LAKE BEER's Koln Style Kolsch. Being able to choose dishes to match the beer style is one of the strengths of a beer pub centered on draft beer. Rather than flashiness, the impression is that this place is carefully putting together the everyday pint.
Craft Beer 2mugi is an easy place to use when you want a spot where craft beer takes center stage but food is also easy to enjoy. It is a shop worth remembering when you want to drink in the Akihabara and Iwamotocho area while checking out the good taps of the day.
