Brewpub Truth in Gotanda posts June 3 tap list with Stone and Katashina
Brewpub Truth, a brewpub in Nishi-Gotanda, Tokyo, shared its June 3, 2026 tap list on Instagram. The lineup spans Stone, Sierra Nevada, Dieu du Ciel, THREES, Kanpai Beer, and Katashina Brewing, offering a balanced mix of classics and more characterful pours.
Hop BroToday's topic is Brewpub Truth's 7 taps. On June 3 in Gotanda, they had everything from STONE "IPA" to Katashina Brewing, and honestly, it's the kind of lineup that melts your willpower in three seconds.
MugiWait, STONE IPA is that classic hop beast, right? If I can get that in Gotanda, my after-work plans are already ruined.
Hop BroWhat works so well is a clear tasting axis. You can lock in the basics with SIERRA NEVADA "Pale Ale," then move into THREES "Between the Lines" or Kanpai Beer "Kiyomizu-Zaka Bright IPA."
MugiHold on, Session IPA sounds like a band practice with beer. What does that actually mean?
Hop BroIt sounds intense, but it's more like lighter ABV, easy pace. Usually easier to start with, still aromatic, but less likely to wear your palate out on the first round.
MugiOhh! Then what is DIEU DU CIEL's wheat sour "Solstice d'Ete Cerises" like? That name sounds like a spell that summons cherries.
Hop BroHonestly, that's not far off. It has soft wheat texture with tartness and a cherry note, so it feels bright without getting too heavy. Meanwhile, Katashina Brewing's "Under the Dark, Gotanda Sky" leans Scotch ale and sounds like a stronger closer.
MugiWhat a lineup! Gotanda Breath and "Under the Dark, Gotanda Sky" even have the neighborhood built into the names. That makes it feel like you're drinking the city itself.
Hop BroAnd the food lineup hits too. Mapo tofu rice, Utsunomiya gyoza, potato chips, smoked nuts, so there's a proper snack partner whether you're on IPA or sour duty.
MugiI'm done for. The hunt for first pint absolutely ends in Gotanda with this one. Seven taps from classics to oddballs? I want to get pulled into Brewpub Truth immediately.
Hop BroIf we're planning the order, it's from easy to 7% for sure. Start with Pale Ale, move through Bright IPA and STONE IPA, then finish with Gotanda Sky, and you've got a beautiful arc.
MugiThat's the route then! I'll defend the table with gyoza, and you can handle the beer nerd commentary. I'm thirsty just reading this.
June 3 tap list
Brewpub Truth in Nishi-Gotanda, Tokyo, posted its tap list for June 3, 2026 on Instagram. The beers listed were STONE "IPA", Katashina Brewing "Gotanda Breath", SIERRA NEVADA "Pale Ale", Kanpai Beer "Kiyomizu-Zaka Bright IPA", THREES "Between the Lines", DIEU DU CIEL "Solstice d'Ete Cerises", and Katashina Brewing "Under the Dark, Gotanda Sky" - seven beers in total.
A lineup built for comparison
The styles cover IPA, pale ale, Scotch ale, American pale ale, wheat sour, and a grapefruit-forward session IPA. ABV ranges from 4.5% to 7%, so the board works well for starting light and moving toward something fuller. Two of the beers, "Gotanda Breath" and "Under the Dark, Gotanda Sky", fold the Gotanda name into the beer itself, which gives the list a local touch that fits the bar.
Food that fits the format
The regular food menu includes mapo-tofu rice, Utsunomiya gyoza, potato chips, and smoked nuts, making it easy to keep eating between pours. As a brewpub, Brewpub Truth is set up for beer and food to move together, and this list reflects that approach: familiar international names, Japanese brewery taps, and a few beers with a strong sense of place, all in one place in West Gotanda.
