At SIBLINGS, NOMCRAFT Brewing beers appeared for the first time. In an Instagram post, the shop announced that it had welcomed beers from @nomcraft.brewing, with a lineup of four labels centered on IPA styles. True to a beer pub in the Ikenohata shopping street area of Kikuna in Kohoku Ward, Yokohama, this is a guest-beer arrival you can drop in and enjoy without fuss.

Here are the four beers available this time.

- Moonbow Sheep / ムーンボーシープ
- IPA / ABV 6.5%
- Octopus King / オクトバスキング
- IPA / ABV 7.0%
- NOMCRAFT IPA / ノムクラフトIPA
- American IPA / ABV 5%
- The Beast / ザ ビースト
- Hazy Triple IPA / ABV 10%

From the 5% NOMCRAFT IPA to the 10% The Beast, the range makes it easy to compare both lightness and heft side by side. For IPA fans, a good approach is to start with the familiar NOMCRAFT IPA to get a feel for the brewery, then move on to Moonbow Sheep and Octopus King to compare the hop expression. If you're after a fuller body, saving The Beast for last also seems like a good plan.

As a beer pub rooted in a local shopping street, SIBLINGS is appealing because it lets you encounter craft beer as an extension of everyday life. Guest beers that put the brewery name front and center, like this one, offer a chance to taste the shop's character and the brewer's character at the same time. This arrival, which lets you try four NOMCRAFT Brewing beers at once, is just right for anyone who wants to do an IPA-focused tasting flight.
