This is a great example of high-end Chardonnay from Oregon.
COCKTAILS & BEER
Kizakura Lucky Dog Pale Ale $10 - One of the first craft beer brewers in Japan is Kizakura Co, a Kyoto-based brewery that's one of Japan's top sake producers. Kizakura started making beer back in 1995, using the same clear, pure water they've been using to make their sake. Lucky Dog is a soft and calming brew with a subtle but characteristic citrus aromas drawn from cascade hops. It is full of refreshing hoppy flavors, as well as the rich and savory textures of barley malt.
Kizakura Lucky Cat White Ale $10 - This beer has a gentle yet refreshing aroma of fresh yuzu and spicy sansho peppercorn. The addition of high quality Japanese rice lends a lightness to the body of this brew, counterbalancing Saaz hops bitterness elegantly. Try it with any of our cold starters like Hamachi & Jalapeño Sashimi or Octopus Crudo.
Kizakura Lucky Chicken Red IPA $10 - A reddish-copper brew that has the bitterness of an IPA and malty flavor of a red ale. The addition of sake rice lends the beer a soft texture and refreshing character. Lucky Chicken has a harmonious blend of tropical fruit aromas from mosaic hops and sweet malt aromas from caramel hops. Try it with our Chicken Skewers Three Ways.
Saint Arnold Juicy IPA $6 - From Texas' oldest Craft Brewery, this is an IPA bursting with hop flavor and aroma. It has a soft bitterness followed by a refreshing juicy sweetness that doesn’t end cloying.
Parish "Ghost in the Machine" Double IPA $8 - Expect pungent grapefruit aromas and flavors, tropical fruit, and less harsh bitterness than most IIPAs.
Yuzu Sparkle $8 - Sparkling Japanese Lemonade with Topo Chico. Make it a Strawberry Lemonade for an additional $2.
SAKE
Daimon "Road to Osaka" Tokubetsu Junmai Nigori 720ml $46 - It is creamy yet mild with notes of banana, citrus and floral. A great unfiltered sake for beginner and advanced sake drinkers. Try it with our Shrimp and Veggie Tempura or Chicken Karaage.
Konteki "Tears of Dawn" Daiginjo 720ml $70 - This sake has lush notes of tropical banana, anise seed, and truffle. These same flavors come rushing through the full-bodied palate followed by a velvety and dangerously smooth finish. Pair it with our Iberico Shumai or Pan-seared Iberico pork.
