At the brewpub "Namacha-n Stand Shiinamachi Branch" in Toshima Ward's Shiinamachi, a new beer, "Namacha-n's Weizen Gokugoku Ver.", has been tapped. A tap list has been unveiled featuring three house brews plus a guest beer from NEKOBEER.
Hop BroThe tap list update in Shiinamachi is pretty exciting. At Namacha-n Stand Shiinamachi Branch, the new "Namacha-n's Weizen Gokugoku Ver." has been tapped.
MugiWhoa! Just from the name Gokugoku Ver., it already sounds super easy to drink! What kind of beer is it?
Hop BroIt's a Hefe Weizen, with an ABV of 5.0%. It uses more than 60% wheat malt, and its strengths are a banana-like fruitiness and a soft mouthfeel.
MugiWhat?! More than 60% wheat malt? If you put that much in, does it turn into bread? That's not the wheat I know!
Hop BroIt doesn't turn into bread, but that's what makes Weizen interesting. The wheat gives it a fluffy body, bitterness stays fairly restrained, and the finish comes across as clean.
MugiI see! So when they say light and refreshing for hot days, that totally makes sense. It's the kind of beer that looks like it could handle one more glass!
Hop BroWhat's great this time is that there are five taps on offer. Three house brews plus a guest beer from NEKOBEER makes for a lineup that's a lot of fun to compare side by side.
MugiWhoa, that many? The flavor directions all seem different too, so if you drink them one by one, your brain will probably get happily confused!
Hop BroExactly. There's a grapefruit-forward Sour IPA, a Hojicha Ale, a Rauch, and even NEKOBEER's DDH WEST COAST IPA, so it's like a showcase of personalities.
MugiHojicha, smoky notes, DDH... that's way too much information, in the best way! I really love being able to drink the brewer's personality as it is.
Hop BroExactly. So today, I just can't shake this urge to do a tasting comparison in Shiinamachi. Start with the Weizen to settle the palate, then move on from there. That's the right move.
MugiWow, just thinking about it makes my throat want to join in! I want to start with a white beer right now, then chase it with the guest IPA!
