In TAP&GROWLER Shimokitazawa's March 15 post, Kakegawa Farm's "Dank Hop IPA (WC IPA)" was introduced as the newly tapped guest beer. The post clearly stated that it had been "connected to tap 5," making this day's centerpiece unmistakable.

Today's highlight is a WC IPA for bitterness fans


The featured "Dank Hop IPA" was described in the post with the sense of being "for those starving for bitterness," making it a beer that should appeal to people who want to enjoy hop-driven sharpness and dank character. This is a beer to choose when you want not just brightness, but a clear, defined bitterness.

A way to enjoy it that feels like TAP&GROWLER Shimokitazawa


The shop is a beer pub near Shimokitazawa Station, and in addition to drinking on-site, it also offers canned sales and growler fills. It makes it easy to bring home a brand you enjoyed in the store, which is part of the appeal for expanding everyday craft beer experiences. The post also showed the breadth of its welcome, noting that solo drinkers, pets, and children are all welcome.

The store's information also highlights a tap lineup and bottle selection that rotate mainly among domestic beers. Rather than following fixed staples, this is a place to enjoy whatever is currently on tap, so guest beer announcements like this one are not to be missed. If you love IPA, keep an eye on tap 5.
