Hop BroYokohama's Craft Beer Kitchen Kokoro no Tsuki has put out its tap list for May 27. It's a beer pub in Hinodecho, and today is a round for taking your time and enjoying the pairing of beer and Chinese dishes.
MugiWait, beer and Chinese food really go that well together? And with six beers on the list, I'm already hungry just looking at the menu!
Hop BroThe first pour is Radiant Beer "Mind Gardens", then Taihu Brewing "Taihu IPA". Mixing domestic and international picks, just those first two beers already open up the view quite a bit.
MugiHold on, I keep hearing IPA, but what exactly makes it different? The name alone sounds kind of intense!
Hop BroIPA is a style where hop character takes center stage. The aroma and bitterness stand out, and something like Taihu IPA is a reliable partner that cuts through the oil and umami of Chinese food.
MugiI see, that's why it works with Chinese food! And a place where the presence of the kitchen feels so close sounds like it'd have a great live vibe and be fun!
Hop BroThat's the good thing about Kokoro no Tsuki: because the kitchen and seating are close together, you can choose while imagining a plate like eggplant with ginger soy sauce or drool-inducing wontons. Even the order of the beers becomes fun.
MugiWhoa, drool-inducing wontons already have attack power just from the name! But the tap list also has labels from Hokkaido and Taiwan, right?
Hop BroExactly. From Hop Kotan Brewing there are two beers, "Iki na Haka Rye" and "Misty Way"; plus Nara Brewing "Spiral" and Echoes Brewing "The Wave". It's a lineup that clearly shows its regions and personalities across six beers.
MugiNo way, just the phrase six distinct beers makes me want to do a tasting flight! Chasing clear beer with Chinese food sounds pretty blissful, doesn't it?
Hop BroExactly. The shop itself says it offers a happy moment with clear beer and Chinese food. Nights like this, where the focus is on clarity rather than flash, are the kind you want to linger over at a place like this.
MugiAlright, now I'm in the mood for a drink in Yokohama! I'll start with the Taihu IPA, then the Misty Way, and after that mapo tofu - I'm fully ready to drink!
Craft Beer Kitchen Kokoro no Tsuki, on the second floor in Miyakawacho, Yokohama, announced the tap list for Wednesday, May 27. The shop opens from 3:00 p.m., and its style of pairing craft beer with Chinese dishes is very much its signature.
The lineup for the day featured six beers with personalities from Japan and abroad. The first pour was Radiant Beer "Mind Gardens", followed by Taihu Brewing "Taihu IPA". From Hokkaido's Hop Kotan Brewing came two rye-based beers, "Iki na Haka Rye" and "Misty Way". On the domestic side, Nara Brewing "Spiral" also appeared, along with Echoes Brewing "The Wave", which evokes Taiwan's craft beer scene.
Kokoro no Tsuki is a beer pub a short walk from Hinodecho Station. With the kitchen and seating area close together, one of its charms is being able to choose beers while feeling the presence of the food being prepared. Centered on Chinese dishes, it offers beer-friendly plates such as steamed chicken with green Sichuan pepper and green onion sauce, deep-fried eggplant with ginger soy sauce, mapo tofu, Shanghai-style fried noodles, shrimp mayo, and drool-inducing wontons.
In that day's post, the shop introduced itself as offering "a happy moment with clear beer and Chinese food." It seems like a place best suited to people who want to savor the contours of the beer and its pairing with the food rather than flashiness.
