Beer pub Entrance to Beer NOVICE in Kawagoe has updated its tap list. Two new beers joined the lineup: Kokano Kuma from Chichibu Beer and JAMAICA from WILLIAMS Brewery, bringing the total to five taps.
Hop BroThe five-tap refresh at Entrance to Beer NOVICE in Kawagoe is a strong one. Kohaku no Kuma and JAMAICA just joined the board.
MugiWait, Kohaku no Kuma already sounds adorable and delicious! And JAMAICA sounds like a beach in a glass. What are they like?
Hop BroThe two newcomers are Chichibu Bakushu's amber ale Kohaku no Kuma and WILLIAMS Brewery's fruit ale JAMAICA. Both sit at ABV 5.0%.
MugiHold on, amber ale sounds like a spell from beer wizard school! What does it actually taste like?
Hop BroThink toasty malt flavor first. Kohaku no Kuma leans smooth and rich, the kind of pint that makes you slow down and enjoy it.
MugiOkay, but that ABV 5.0% part? Why does every beer label suddenly look like math homework?
Hop BroABV means alcohol by volume. JAMAICA is a friendly 5.0%, with bright color, crisp acidity, and juicy orange-peel character.
MugiThat is a huge flavor range! You can go from cozy and malty to fruity and zingy without leaving one pub.
Hop BroAnd the other taps are Memorial Match from U.B.P Brewery, CARVAAN Brewery's lightly salty and tart Karlvaan Gose, and Endless Summer from GECKO BEER. Add weekday 5 p.m. opens, weekend 3 p.m. opens, plus limited food, and it's basically a tasting paradise. Honestly, I want to work through all five tonight.
MugiThree minutes from Kawagoe Station and five from Hon-Kawagoe? That's unfairly convenient. I want a pint now and I want to start with Kohaku no Kuma, then chase it with JAMAICA.
