Hop BroHakodate has a fun one coming up: ozigi brewing's 5th anniversary gets a special food menu starting July 25 built around its anniversary beer.
MugiWait, a celebration you can drink and eat? Hakodate LAGER 1882 already sounds like sea breeze in a glass!
Hop BroExactly. It's a 5th anniversary lager from ozigi brewing Hakodate Bakushu Brewery, and it's the star of the whole setup.
MugiI get lager, but the moment I saw three-charcuterie lineup, my brain thought I got enrolled in French class!
Hop BroBasically, it's fancy savory starters. This set is supervised by Chef Keita Komai of NIPPONIA HOTEL Hakodate Minatomachi, with Hokkaido pork ham, pate de campagne, and salmon rillettes.
MugiWhoa. But pate de campagne has serious final-boss energy as a name!
Hop BroIt's a country-style pate layered with chicken liver richness, and the deep umami layers get cleaned up by the lager's crisp finish. That's the pairing.
MugiSo pairing means teamwork in your mouth? The beer is the coach and the snacks are the star players?
Hop BroThat analogy is annoyingly accurate. The salmon rillettes bring a light smoky note, the ham is moist and gentle, and the beer leads everything.
MugiThe moment you said limited quantities, I panicked! Fresh beer and a limited pairing in Suehirocho sounds dangerous for my self-control!
Hop BroWeekdays start at 5 p.m., weekends at 2 p.m., and there are no closed days. If you're going, one beer and three plates is the cleanest way to taste the anniversary.
MugiAgreed. Tourist stop or reward meal, this works either way. I want a glass now, and I fully intend to chase it with every dish!
