GROW BREW HOUSE Announces Weekend Pizza Service and the Return of "Heiji," Highlights Six House-Brewed Beers
GROW BREW HOUSE in Nishikawaguchi, Kawaguchi City, Saitama Prefecture, announced its pizza service and tap list for April 11 and 12. In addition to Neapolitan-style pizza baked with malt-containing dough, it is also announcing the return of "Heiji" and six house-brewed beers.
Hop BroGROW BREW HOUSE in Nishikawaguchi has announced weekend pizza service and released its tap list. On April 11 and 12, they'll be serving Neapolitan-style pizza baked with malt-containing dough made by Hoppe Hoppe, and honestly, that's the kind of thing that makes your stomach growl before you even start drinking.
MugiWait, what is malt-containing dough? You put beer malt into pizza dough? Even though it's pizza, it already feels super craft-beer-like!
Hop BroExactly. The malt adds a subtle roasted aroma to the dough, so it pairs really well. And it sounds like they'll make about three kinds, with weekend service from 3:00 p.m. and Sunday sold out once it's gone, which really gives off that popular-shop vibe.
MugiSold out once it's gone? So even the pizza is first-come, first-served!? We'd better hurry. So, what beers do they have?
Hop BroThere are six house-brewed beers on tap. For example, "Mikkusu / Milk Shake IPA / 7%" is a sweet IPA, and "Amanatsu Wheat Lager / Fruits Wheat Lager / 4%" has a fruity character and feels light, so it's easy to pair with food.
MugiMilk Shake IPA sounds sweet just from the name! But IPAs are supposed to be bitter, so what do you mean by a sweet IPA?
Hop BroMilk Shake IPAs often use lactose to bring out a mellow sweetness and body, not just bitterness. GROW BREW HOUSE's "Letter / Cacao Milk Porter / 8%" is interesting too, and because it has cacao notes, it's the kind of beer you can sip slowly like a dessert.
MugiWait, dessert vibes in beer!? That's cheating, isn't it? And if you say cacao notes, now I want chocolate with it too!
Hop BroAlso, "Onaji Hanashi / Barley Wine / 9%" is rich and full-bodied, "Lieth Waik IPA / Session IPA / 4%" is brisk, and "BIG BRIDGE IPA / American IPA / 7%" pairs well with food. In other words, the lineup has a wide range of drinking styles, so it can handle pizza, a first drink, or a closing drink.
MugiWhat is this, something I want all of them! And if "Heiji" is getting a re-release, it has total comeback-hero energy. That's a very strong reason to go to the shop!
Hop BroExactly. There's the return of Heiji, which had been taken off tap for a while to connect to the anniversary beer, and they've also announced participation in the SAKURATOWN Beer Fest on April 25, 26, and 29. Bite into some pizza, have a drink, then have another one at the festival, and your spring schedule will basically be filled with beer.
The brewpub GROW BREW HOUSE in Nishikawaguchi posted its weekend business notice on Instagram.
On April 11 and 12, it will serve Neapolitan-style pizza baked with malt-containing dough made by Hoppe Hoppe. The post said it plans to make about three kinds, with weekend business, Sunday sold out once supplies run out, and opening at 3:00 p.m. on both days. It is the kind of weekend the shop does best, where beer and pizza can be enjoyed at the same time.
It also announced the re-release of "Heiji," which had been set aside for a while to connect to the anniversary beer. The tap list included the following six beers.
- Mikkusu / Milk Shake IPA / 7%
- Amanatsu Wheat Lager / Fruits Wheat Lager / 4%
- Letter / Cacao Milk Porter / 8%
- Onaji Hanashi / Barley Wine / 9%
- Lieth Waik IPA / Session IPA / 4%
- BIG BRIDGE IPA / American IPA / 7%
All of them are house-brewed by GROW BREW HOUSE, and the lineup spans a wide range of drinking styles, from a sweet Milk Shake IPA to a fruity Wheat Lager, a Milk Porter with cacao notes, and a full-bodied Barley Wine. If you want something lighter, the 4% "Amanatsu Wheat Lager" or "Lieth Waik IPA" looks like a good choice. If you want something to pair with food, "BIG BRIDGE IPA" or "Mikkusu" would fit, and if you want to savor it slowly, "Letter" or "Onaji Hanashi" seems like the right pick.
Located at 1-25-8 Nishikawaguchi, Kawaguchi City, the shop's appeal as a brewpub lies in how close beer and food are to each other. In this post as well, the shop's character comes through clearly with both pizza and taps. It also announced participation in the SAKURATOWN Beer Fest on April 25, 26, and 29, so the spring schedule is still going.
