Beer Nerd Alert: Rare Hitachino at Zama

In the market for weekend drinking plans? We've got you covered. This weekend Zama (128 S. 19th St.) is hosting the Philadelphia debut of super rare Hitachino Anbai Plum Wheat Ale. And if you're a fan of Hitachino Nest White Ale, chances are you're probably going to be a big fan of this one. Anbai Plum is basically a super-intense take on the German-style, Japanese-brewed white that's aged with natural sea salt-packed hand picked plums. The result is something along the lines of a sweet-sour-crisp that we're thinking could be something along the lines of Berliner Weisse's Japanese cousin. We suggest you get to Zama ASAP to sample Anbai Plum, once that 20 liter keg is kicked, there's no telling when it'll come back around.
