After School Brewery in Ikejiri-Ohashi spotlights fresh tap beer Ensoku in Episode 15
After School Brewery in Tokyo’s Ikejiri-Ohashi area announced the start of Episode 15 of its podcast Hōkago Hōsōbu on Instagram. The post highlights a fresh Hefeweizen called Ensoku now on tap, along with light summer-friendly beer talk.
Hop BroSomething fun just popped up in Ikejiri-Ohashi: After School Brewery has tapped “Ensoku”. They also announced episode 15 of their podcast "After School Broadcasting Club" on Instagram, so it is a pretty tempting combo for both ears and throat.
MugiWait, the beer is called “Ensoku”? That name already makes me want to run outside. What kind of place is After School Brewery?
Hop BroIt is a microbrewery in HOME/WORK VILLAGE, a renovated former junior high school in Setagaya’s Ikejiri-Ohashi, and the whole point is that easy after-school feeling for grown-ups.
MugiAfter-school for adults is such a dangerous phrase. No homework, just beer? That concept is way too powerful.
Hop BroAnd “Ensoku” itself is a Hefeweizen-style wheat beer. It is light, fresh, great for summer nights, and it carries that soft banana-like aroma.
MugiHold on, Hefeweizen sounds less like beer and more like a spell from wizard school. If I order that out loud, I am absolutely tripping over the middle.
Hop BroFair. Think of it as a soft wheat beer. The yeast creates esters, which are aroma compounds, and that is what gives it that banana-ish character and gentle texture.
MugiOkay but what are esters? You just turned this bar chat into chemistry class. So the simple version is fruity and easy to drink?
Hop BroExactly. And since it just hit the tap, the big draw is that just-brewed freshness. You are getting that lively, right-off-the-brew feel.
MugiThat already sounds worth the trip. And episode 15 has Reina as the guest, right? A different vibe plus fresh beer sounds like a very efficient evening.
Hop BroIt also includes this week’s beer fortune, where they pick by instinct from porter, Hazy IPA, and pale ale, plus some beer history talk. Honestly, I want a glass just thinking about it.
MugiThen it is settled: let’s check the tap and the podcast in Ikejiri-Ohashi and drink “Ensoku” in full after-school mode. I will aim for a classy field trip, though, not a lost-child incident.
After School Brewery is a microbrewery on the first floor of HOME/WORK VILLAGE, a renovated former junior high school complex in Setagaya, Tokyo. The space leans into a relaxed after-school atmosphere where adults can gather after work.
The Instagram post announces Episode 15 of the podcast Hōkago Hōsōbu. This time, Reina from the girl band yoimelomate joins the show as a guest, bringing a slightly different tone to the usual conversation.
The beer highlight is Ensoku, a brand-new tap beer from After School Brewery. It is described as a wheat beer with a banana-like aroma, brewed in the Hefeweizen style. The post frames it as a fresh, easy-drinking beer that suits a warm summer night.
The episode also mentions a weekly beer fortune segment built around Porter, Hazy IPA, and Pale Ale, plus a conversation touching on beer history. With a taproom rooted in a former school building, the brewery’s appeal lies in pairing fresh beer with a setting that still carries the memory of the classroom.
