Beer O'clock taps Minoh Beer Pale Ale and Ise Kadoya Beer Hat Trick TDH Hazy IPA
Beer O'clock, a craft beer pub in Chiba City, added two new taps for June 15. The lineup pairs Minoh Beer’s classic Pale Ale with Ise Kadoya Beer’s hop-forward TDH Hazy IPA, alongside an updated lunch pasta special.
Hop BroBeer O'clock in Chiba added two fresh taps on June 15. That's the kind of lineup that makes daytime drinking sound very reasonable.
MugiWhat! At a place with up to 12 taps? Two new kegs and my "quick stop" plan is already falling apart!
Hop BroThe new pours are Minoh Beer Pale Ale and ISEKADO's Hattrick TDH Hazy IPA, which makes for a really contrasting duo on the lineup.
MugiWhoa! But TDH Hazy IPA already sounds intense. What makes it that special?
Hop BroTDH means triple dry-hopped. They add hops during or after fermentation to build aroma, so it's basically three rounds of hops stacking layers into the glass.
MugiNo way, layers of aroma makes it sound like the beer is wearing three perfumes and a cape!
Hop BroAnd ISEKADO packed it with Mosaic, Mosaic Cryo, Citra, and Idaho 7 Cryo, with a massive hop charge by their standards. It should be dense and fruity at the same time.
MugiOooh, so Minoh's one is the classic pale ale side of the story? The calmer older sibling?
Hop BroExactly. Cascade-led American hops bring citrusy notes and easygoing bitterness, so it drinks with that dependable pale ale comfort.
MugiThat pairing is unfairly good! One safe, one wild, basically a built-in tasting flight. And lunch switched to surf clam, arugula, and fresh tomato pasta too?
Hop BroThat's very Beer O'clock: real range in both beer and food. Around Chiba Station, this is worth heading over for right away.
MugiI'm sold. Let's go pale to hazy, grab the pasta, and turn June 15 into a very happy day!
At Beer O'clock in the Chiba Station area, the June 15 update brought two new beers onto tap. The pub is known for offering up to 12 taps of rotating craft beer, making it a straightforward stop for beer drinkers who want both a fresh pour and a meal. The lunch special was also refreshed to "scallops, arugula, and fresh tomato spaghetti," giving the room an easy all-day draw.
The two beers added this time were Minoh Beer's "Pale Ale" and Ise Kadoya Beer's "Hat Trick TDH Hazy IPA."
The Pale Ale is a classic American-style ale built around Cascade hops and a healthy amount of American hop character. The result is a beer with citrus-like aromatics and a balanced bitterness that should feel familiar in the best way.
The "Hat Trick TDH Hazy IPA" leans in the other direction. According to the post, it uses three rounds of dry hopping and one of ISEKADO's largest hop charges to date. Mosaic, Mosaic Cryo, Citra, and Idaho 7 Cryo are all part of the blend, setting up a dense but fruit-forward hazy IPA. If you want a beer that shows off hop intensity, this is the more attention-grabbing pour.
Beer O'clock’s location in central Chiba and its broad tap lineup make it a practical beer bar rather than a one-note destination. This update is a good example of that range: one familiar, easy-drinking ale, and one heavily hopped hazy IPA for drinkers chasing aroma and depth.
