MugiWait, Awashima Soko is that serious of a beer pub? And just one newly tapped keg makes it feel extra special!
Hop BroExactly. And since this Hometown Stout is a Dry Stout, it's a dark beer that leans crisp and clean. It has roast character, but the nice part is that it doesn't feel too heavy.
MugiDry, but a dark beer? That's a little confusing! Is it bitter? Sweet? So it's lighter on the palate?
Hop BroBasically, it has that toasted aroma, but the finish doesn't linger in a heavy way. So you can enjoy the roasted character and still drink it pretty easily.
MugiOhhh! Then I want to know about the other taps too! A five-beer lineup is really varied.
Hop BroGood eye. open air's the believer is an NZ Pilsner, YOROCCO's Tobiuo Saison 2026 is a Farmhouse Ale, and there are also YOROCCO's YEXIT, a West Coast IPA, plus BREW CLASSIC's Wolf Chop, a Wheat IPA.
MugiWhat a mouthful of katakana! But the range of styles is huge, so even beginners should have fun choosing.
Hop BroExactly. From a light, easygoing beer to an IPA with a strong hop aroma and a dark beer that shows its malt character, being able to choose by mood is one of Awashima Soko's strengths.
MugiAnd the place has a calm atmosphere, so it might really be somewhere you drink slowly and seriously. I like that they ask people to keep their voices down too; it feels like a place where you can focus on the beer!
Hop BroFor the weekend, I'd start with Hometown Stout, then work through the crispness of the believer, the fermentation notes of Tobiuo Saison 2026, and the hop character of YEXIT.
MugiWow, that sounds amazing! I'd start with Hometown Stout and then probably say, just one more glass... and end up trying every single one!
Awashima Soko, a beer pub in Daizawa, Setagaya Ward, Tokyo, announced the beers it will serve on Saturday, May 16. In the post, it introduced YOROCCO's Hometown Stout (Dry Stout) as a "new keg opening." Described as a crisp, dry dark beer, it looks like an appealing pour that lets you enjoy the roasted character without feeling overly heavy.
The day's lineup consists of five beers: open air's the believer (NZ Pilsner), YOROCCO's Tobiuo Saison 2026 (Farmhouse Ale), YOROCCO's Hometown Stout (Dry Stout), YOROCCO's YEXIT (West Coast IPA), and BREW CLASSIC's Wolf Chop (Wheat IPA). With styles ranging from Pilsner and Saison to Stout, IPA, and Wheat IPA, the selection makes it easy to choose according to your mood, from a light, easygoing pour to an IPA with a pronounced hop aroma, or a dark beer that shows off its malt character.
Awashima Soko has the calm atmosphere you would expect from a beer pub, and the post also included several notes about using the interior. It asks for visits in small groups of four people or fewer, and requests that guests refrain from speaking loudly, making it a place well suited to slow, attentive drinking. Hours are 18:00-24:00 on weekdays, 15:00-23:00 on Saturdays, and 15:00-22:00 on Sundays and holidays. The May closing days are listed as Tuesday, May 6 and Tuesday, May 19.
If you're looking for a weekend drink, start with YOROCCO's Hometown Stout. From there, adding the crispness of the believer, the fermentation-driven nuance of Tobiuo Saison 2026, the hop character of YEXIT, and the light drinkability of Wolf Chop reveals just how broad Awashima Soko's tap lineup is.
