Hop BroAt Shimbashi DRY-DOCK in Shimbashi, two guest kegs have been tapped. North Island Beer's "Sylvan Relic" and Daisen G Beer's stout are both on, which is pretty exciting.
MugiWhoa! So it's a two-beer lineup? If I stopped by after work in Shimbashi, it'd suddenly feel like a reward party!
Hop BroExactly. And since it's a beer pub at Minato-ku Shimbashi 3-25-10, it's great that it pairs well with Western-style food. That's the reassuring kind of place where you can enjoy a meal centered around beer.
MugiBut seriously, the name Sylvan Relic is too cool to imagine what it tastes like! What is it, a forest relic? Is this fantasy or what?
Hop BroIt's the kind of name that grabs you. They don't go into the recipe details here, but as a guest beer it feels like an impressionable beer that works as an entry point for tasting side by side.
MugiAn entry point for tasting! That sounds like a house with a wide front door, easy to walk into! So the other one, Daisen G Beer's stout, is the dark, heavy kind?
Hop BroThat's right. Stout's strengths are roasted character and richness, and it often brings out the toasty aroma of roasted malt. It's a classic dark beer.
MugiRoasted character? So the beer didn't accidentally get put in a toaster, right? When you say roasted malt, I suddenly get hungry!
Hop BroNo, it doesn't get put in a toaster by mistake. The malt is heated thoroughly to draw out aroma and bitterness. That's why it has such a broad range as a beer to enjoy with food.
MugiI see! And even though the post apologizes for the equipment trouble, beer and food are still being served as usual, right? Then it's totally fine to go!
Hop BroYes. Shimbashi is the kind of neighborhood that pulls you in after work, so a place like this is strong. It's the kind of spot that makes you want to say, one drink in Shimbashi today, and one more tomorrow.
MugiDecision made! I want to start with Sylvan Relic to get the mood going, then finish with the stout! Let's go raise a toast tonight!
