Hop BroTaki〜AKANE〜JapaneseBeer&SakeDining in Shibuya's Dogenzaka will be open from 5 p.m. to midnight on April 21. It's a pretty perfect time slot if you're slipping in after work.
MugiWait, it's not just late-night hours!? And the first two hours get 100 yen off too? They are basically determined to get you drinking from the very start!
Hop BroExactly. And the draft beer lineup is interesting too - there are three draft beers from Yokohama Bay Brewing, Minoh Beer, and Hitachino Nest Beer. It's not that the lineup is quirky for the sake of it; each one actually has its own distinct character.
MugiWhat is that! Pilsner, pale ale, IPA... the names alone already make me feel left behind!? They just look like beer spells to me!
Hop BroThen I'll break it down. Yokohama Bay Brewing's Beer Terrace is a German Style Pilsner, so it's a crisp pilsner. It's clean to drink and the finish makes you feel pleasantly refreshed.
MugiOhh! So Minoh Beer's pale ale is like the one in the middle? It feels like a balanced style, and even beginners could go for it!
Hop BroThat's right. Minoh Beer's pale ale is an American Pale Ale, with just the right balance of malt sweetness and hop aroma. Hitachino Nest Beer's Daidai Ale is an IPA, so the hop presence and bitterness really come forward.
MugiAn IPA hits that hard!? It's like the hops are having a meeting in my mouth! So that's the main contender for bitterness.
Hop BroAnd this place is strong not just in Japanese craft beer, but in sake too. Machida Sake Brewery from Gunma, Masuizumi from Toyama, and Ayumasamune from Niigata are on the list, so it's really nice that you can wander off into sake too.
MugiWow, it's unfair that I was drinking beer and now I'm curious about sake too... But tonight we start with beer, right? Let's do a Dogenzaka tasting!
Hop BroDeal. Start with the pilsner to get things in order, then widen out with the pale ale, and finish with the IPA - that's the best flow. Tonight we'll have one drink together that's perfect for after work.
MugiAgreed! Just reading the article made my throat thirsty, and tonight is definitely a night that makes you want to drink!
Taki〜AKANE〜JapaneseBeer&SakeDining in Dogenzaka, Shibuya, Tokyo, will be open from 5 p.m. to midnight on Tuesday, April 21. For the first two hours after opening, its "Akane Happy Time!" applies a 100-yen discount, creating an easy-to-stop-by window after work. The shop's concept centers on Japanese craft beer and sake. It is a place where beer lovers can casually drop in for just one drink, while also making it easy to relax over a meal.
The draft beer list for the day includes Yokohama Bay Brewing's "Beer Terrace" (German Style Pilsner), Minoh Beer's "Pale Ale" (American Pale Ale), and Hitachino Nest Beer's "Daidai Ale" (IPA). Because the lineup brings together three beers with clearly different directions - the crispness of a pilsner, the balance of a pale ale, and the hop presence and bitterness of an IPA - it is easy to choose according to your mood that day.
The post also announces new sake openings, featuring Machida Sake Brewery from Gunma, Masuizumi from Toyama, and Ayumasamune from Niigata. While craft beer is the core, the shop also lets you naturally wander into Japanese sake, which is very much part of its character. It is a good fit for a night in Shibuya's Dogenzaka when you want to compare taps alongside a meal.
