Mugibaru in Kamata Plans a Food Menu Refresh, with Full Throttle and MOON on Tap
Mugibaru, a beer pub in Nishi-Kamata, Ota Ward, Tokyo, says it may tweak its food menu around July and is asking guests which dishes they want to keep. The post also highlights the current draft lineup, including Full Throttle from Hop Kotan.
Hop BroMugibaru in Nishikamata is talking about a July food refresh, and they are even asking customers which dishes absolutely need to stay. That is such a smart pub move.
MugiWhat! That is basically a side-dish election! A beer pub giving my stomach voting rights before I even sit down?
Hop BroTheir post lines up Brasserie Knot's MOON with sardine ume-shiso fry, and the pub personality comes through right away. Beer and food both get star treatment.
MugiMOON is such a fancy name... but Double IPA means what exactly? Did the IPA clone itself?
Hop BroNot two beers, just more attitude. It means extra hop intensity, with bigger aroma, firmer bitterness, and more body, and MOON lands at 7%.
MugiOkay, then Full Throttle from Hop Kotan sounds like an action-movie beer. What is it actually like?
Hop BroFull Throttle is an American IPA at 6%, the kind that makes you expect bright citrusy aromatics. Then there is Hime Beer's blood orange fruit ale at 2%, Sankt Gallen's Green Bullet HAZY at 7.5%, and Asahi Jukusen pilsner at 5.5%, so the style range is wide.
MugiHold on, HAZY makes me picture walking into fog. So a Hazy IPA tastes like what, exactly?
Hop BroNot lost in fog, intentionally cloudy and juicy. That soft mouthfeel smooths out the bitterness and lets the aroma bloom, so it is friendly for newer craft beer drinkers too.
MugiWow! And the NEXT list has Yokohama Beer's Odawara Orange Pale Ale plus Hansharo Beer's Kyo mo Manten? That is a next-pint teaser with zero mercy!
Hop BroExactly. With citrusy fruit ale, double IPA, hazy, and pilsner all on the board, it is perfect for pairing and comparing, and now is the moment if you want the current staples before the food menu changes.
MugiThen it is settled! I want to head to Mugibaru in Nishikamata 5-chome, campaign for the sardine fry, and start a tasting flight mission immediately!
