Craft beer kitchen Kokorono Tsuki posts a six-tap lineup for August 1 in Yokohama
Craft beer kitchen Kokorono Tsuki, a beer pub in Miyakawacho, Yokohama, shared its August 1 tap list. The lineup features six beers from Seapine Brewing, Repabrew, Hop Kotan Brewing, Barbaric Works, and Lucky Envelope Brewing, with Saturday service starting at 2 p.m.
Hop BroToday’s six taps at Kokoro no Tsuki in Miyagawacho, Yokohama are a seriously good lineup, the kind that makes you want a beer in this heat.
MugiWhat! This is the August 1 lineup? That sounds like the kind of post that makes you want to run there immediately!
Hop BroExactly, and the first thing that jumps out is Seapine Brewing’s Blackberry Gose plus Lucky Envelope Brewing’s Watermelon Splash Sour.
MugiWait, what is a gose anyway? It sounds like a special attack, not a beer.
Hop BroIt is a beer, and gose usually has a light salty tang with acidity, so adding blackberry fruit character makes it perfect for summer.
MugiOh wow! So Watermelon Splash Sour is basically the watermelon refresher of the lineup, the one that blasts the heat away?
Hop BroThat’s it. And it gets even better with Hoppokotan Brewery pouring the permanent-shop exclusive One Lap Behind Yuzu-Free Ver. alongside kimi.
MugiI’m helpless against limited pours! And with Repabrew’s Thunderstruck and Barbaric Works’ Green Massive too, the range across six beers is kind of unfair.
Hop BroThe real trick is that Kokoro no Tsuki is a place for beer with Chinese food, so you can pair those bright, tangy beers with mapo tofu, wontons, and peppery steamed chicken.
MugiOpening at 2 p.m. and serving all that food too makes this a guaranteed happiness course... now I really want us both ordering the first round.
Tap list
On August 1, Craft beer kitchen Kokorono Tsuki posted a six-tap lineup that mixes fruit-forward sour and gose beers with a few house regulars and other distinctive selections.
- Seapine Brewing: Blackberry Gose
- Repabrew: Thunderstruck
- Hop Kotan Brewing: One Lap Behind, yuzu-free version (house-regular only)
- Barbaric Works: Green Massive
- Lucky Envelope Brewing: Watermelon Splash Sour
- Hop Kotan Brewing: kimi
The Blackberry Gose and Watermelon Splash Sour stand out as especially warm-weather-friendly choices, while the house-regular-only yuzu-free One Lap Behind shows the bar’s close connection with Hop Kotan Brewing. The result is a tap list with clear variety, but still a coherent line for a beer bar built around food pairing.
Beer with Chinese dishes
Craft beer kitchen Kokorono Tsuki is a beer pub on the second floor in Miyakawacho, Naka Ward, Yokohama. The bar describes its concept as a place to enjoy “beautiful beer” with Chinese food, and that pairing comes through clearly in the post.
The menu names shown in the caption include steamed chicken with green sansho and scallion sauce, deep-fried eggplant with ginger soy sauce, mapo tofu, Shanghai-style fried noodles, ginger chicken, Ebi mayo, yodare wonton, pork belly rice bowl, and potato salad with century egg and makauy. Those dishes suggest a bar where the beer list is meant to be explored alongside bold, savory food rather than in isolation.
For the schedule, the bar notes a 2 p.m. opening on Saturday, August 1. That makes it an easy spot for an early drink, a slow meal, and a longer afternoon of tasting through the tap list.
