Beerpub Ishii posts Yanaka ginger tap list, with four pouring and four on deck
Beerpub Ishii in Sendagi, Tokyo, shared a Yanaka ginger-themed tap list. Four beers are already on tap, including Sankt Gallen Green Bullet Hazy and Shiga Kogen Beer HELLES!?; four more are listed as coming next.
Hop BroBeer Pub Ishii in Sendagi just put out a ginger-led tap list, and that is a very smart little downtown move.
MugiWait, they built the beer lineup around Yanaka ginger? That's snack-first drinking on a whole new level!
Hop BroAnd the first four pours are strong: Sankt Gallen's Green Bullet Hazy, plus Shiga Kogen Beer's HELLES!?, Kampai! Brewing's Kikuzaka Brown Ale, and Miyata Beer's Juniper IPA.
MugiThose names have attitude, but what is HELLES!? The punctuation alone feels like it's shouting at me!
Hop BroHelles is basically a pale German-style lager, so think clean malty refreshment. It plays nicely with the aroma and bite of the ginger.
MugiOkay, then what about Juniper IPA? Who is Juniper and why are they in my beer?
Hop BroNot a person. Juniper is the berry used around gin, so you get a gin-like herbal aroma layered on top of IPA hop character.
MugiA beer that keeps my nose busy, amazing. And the waiting list with KIMI 2026, Full Bloom DIPA, and more is stacked for round two!
Hop BroExactly. Lager, brown ale, IPA, then DIPA later, all arranged to show off Japanese brewery character side by side.
MugiAnd the hours are great too. Wed to Sat from 5pm to 1am, and Sun from 3pm to 10pm is basically a walk-then-pint schedule for Sendagi.
Hop BroI'd start with HELLES!?, move into Kikuzaka Brown Ale, and finish with Full Bloom DIPA for the full ginger pairing experience.
MugiNow I want a glass immediately. Beer Pub Ishii turned four taps on now into my entire evening plan!
