Beer Bar Festa Shimokitazawa adds two new taps on July 12
Beer Bar Festa Shimokitazawa shared its tap list for July 12. The post says the bar opened early because of a tournament and highlights two new taps: Ushiku Brewery's Wander Vogel IPA and Setouchi's High Five IPA. The lineup mixes Japanese and imported beers across 12 taps.
Hop BroI want to talk about two fresh taps today, because Beer Bar Festa Shimokitazawa just posted its July 12 tap list.
MugiWait, tournament day means they're opening early? That's a dangerous level of pre-game temptation!
Hop BroAnd they're doing Sunday till midnight, so even the post-match crowd can still make it over.
MugiOoh, so what are the new pours this time?
Hop BroFirst up is Wondervogel IPA, a hazy IPA from Ushiku Brewery with guava and pink grapefruit aromatics plus a rich body.
MugiWhat even is a hazy IPA? It sounds like a beer that rolled out of bed late!
Hop BroThat image is not totally wrong. Richer body means it looks a little cloudy, feels soft in the mouth, and spreads juicy aroma really nicely.
MugiNice! And High Five IPA is Setouchi's juicy fifth-anniversary IPA, right? The name already sounds fun.
Hop BroExactly, and the bar is running 12 taps total across domestic and imported beer, from apricot weizen to West Coast pilsner to milk stout.
MugiSo it's basically a tasting paradise... one quick pint at the counter or a longer hang with darts both sound perfect!
Hop BroPlus it's two minutes from the station, and honestly I want one now. Starting with Wondervogel and then moving to High Five feels like the right summer play.
MugiSame here! Let's make a Shimokitazawa run tonight and start with the guava-scented one before the juicy anniversary IPA!
Beer Bar Festa Shimokitazawa shared its July 12 tap list. The post notes that the bar opened earlier than usual because of a tournament and that Sunday service runs until midnight. Two new taps were added: Ushiku Brewery's "Wander Vogel IPA" and Setouchi's "High Five IPA."
"Wander Vogel IPA" is described as a hazy IPA with guava and pink grapefruit aromas and a full body. "High Five IPA" is presented as a juicy IPA created for Setouchi Beer’s 5th anniversary. Both beers point toward bright fruit character and a more substantial mouthfeel, which should suit summer drinking well.
The rest of the lineup includes Nomcraft "Dinosaur Zoo", Setouchi "Apricot Weizen", T.Y. Harbor "Kanpai West Coast Pilsner", Hansharo Beer "Coco Farm & Winery White", Burnt Mill "Fog", Left Hand "Milk Stout", DDC! "Petit Moral", DDC! "ロゼ・ディビスキュス", and the regular Heartland. The range covers IPAs, a Weizen, a Pilsner, and a Stout, with both domestic and imported beers on offer.
The venue is a casual beer pub about a two-minute walk from Shimokitazawa Station, with 12 taps and darts. It works for a quick stop as well as a longer tasting session, making it a practical neighborhood beer spot.
