Vector Beer Omori puts Minoh Beer's Kocha Bitter NITRO on a second keg
A recent Instagram post from Vector Beer Omori says Minoh Beer’s Kocha Bitter NITRO sold well enough to move to a second keg. The post also mentions Shizuoka Brewing’s Yuzu Pils, pointing to a tap list built around domestic craft beer.
Hop BroThis post from Vector Beer Omori is seriously tempting. Minoh Beer’s ‘Black Tea Bitter NITRO’ was so popular they’ve already moved on to keg number two.
MugiWait, keg number two already? That’s intense. A tea beer sounds like happy hour crashing into teatime!
Hop BroThat’s exactly why it’s fun. Minoh Beer made it with a soft black tea aroma, but it still finishes with that proper bitter-beer snap. And the regular version is waiting in the wings too.
MugiHold on, what is NITRO? It sounds less like beer and more like a robot attack.
Hop BroNot a robot attack. Nitro pour means it’s served with nitrogen, so the bubbles get super fine and the mouthfeel turns creamy and smooth.
MugiOhhh, so it’s like a tea latte in texture? That is dangerously classy for a beer.
Hop BroAnd there’s another one in the mix: Shizuoka Brewing’s Yuzu Pils. The shop mentioned it left a big impression at a beer bar in Harajuku, and they’re even considering ordering it for July.
MugiWhat is this, tea and yuzu season? A fragrant tea beer and a crisp lager side by side sounds way too good.
Hop BroThe base lineup is strong too. They’ve got 10 Japanese craft taps, draft Pilsner Urquell, and they’re only three minutes from Omori Station, plus rotisserie chicken finished with 20 spices.
MugiAnd if it starts at 600 yen a glass, that feels easy to jump into. Solo beer stop or small group mission, either way I’m losing to the chicken.
Hop BroThen it’s meet at Omori Station next. Start with Black Tea Bitter NITRO, move to Yuzu Pils, and finish with that chicken... now I definitely want a drink.
Vector Beer Omori is a beer pub about a 3-minute walk from Omori Station. The official site says it keeps around 10 draft beers on tap, centered on domestic craft beer, alongside rotisserie chicken seasoned with 20 spices and a permanent draft of Pilsner Urquell. With counter seats, tables, and a semi-private area, it works well for solo visits and small groups alike.
In the Instagram post, the shop says Minoh Beer’s Kocha Bitter NITRO sold through well enough to move to its second keg. It also notes that a regular version, written as Kocha Butter in the post, is still waiting in reserve, suggesting a run of tea-leaning guest beers.
The post also mentions Shizuoka Brewing’s Yuzu Pils, a beer that left a strong impression after being tried at a beer bar in Harajuku. The shop says it is considering ordering it in July. That mix of a crisp lager and an aromatic tea-style beer should appeal to drinkers who like to compare different expressions side by side.
With glass pours from 600 yen and pints from 1,000 yen, it is easy to build a meal around the beer list. The appeal here is the rotation of guest beers, plus the steady presence of Pilsner Urquell on tap.
