A diverse lineup from breweries across Japan

TBE Brewing in Ebisu has published its keg lineup for September 28. The selection covers a wide range of flavors, from a light 3.5% beer to hop-forward IPAs reaching 7.5% ABV.

The current taps include Ishinomaki Hop Works’ Fest Lager at 6.0%, Kunitachi Brewery’s Yurumi at 3.5%, and Ushiku Brewery’s Wonder Loss at 4.5%. These approachable options should pair well with a meal or provide an easy starting point for a tasting flight.

Hop-focused choices include Johana Beer’s Masaru IPA, Eagle Brewery’s Eagle IPA, and Good Hops’ Pacific Lines. Shiga Kogen Beer appears twice with Snow Monkey IPA Orange ver. and Sono Ju No.10 IPA. Nara Brewing’s Locomotion and BTB’s #476 Hoya Boya ver. 5.3 add further variety to the lineup.

Several beers are marked as running low, so guests interested in a particular pour may want to visit early. The next beers scheduled for the taps include Shiga Kogen Beer’s Fresh Hop Africa Pale Ale, Johana Beer’s Toyama Green Hop, Ise Kadoya Beer’s Mr. Dunk, and Saikado Brewing’s Titanota 3.

The pub is also offering food such as red sea bream sashimi, grape beef shoulder steak, sautéed New Zealand lamb shoulder, and tonkatsu made with barley pork. Located on the second floor of the Shimbori Guitar Building in Ebisu-Minami, TBE Brewing offers a relaxed setting for exploring Japan’s craft beer scene over a meal.
