At Shibuya's taki, Yamaguchi Local Beer’s "Hagi Yuzu Ale" is tapped; HIGHBURY x Baeren also on
At beer pub taki in Sakuragaoka-cho, Shibuya, the guest beer lineup for April 27 was announced. Centered on Yamaguchi Local Beer’s staple "Hagi Yuzu Ale", HIGHBURY × Baeren's "Onmenbroy" and Nagisa Beer’s "American Wheat" are on tap.
Hop BroAt `taki` in Sakuragaoka-cho, Shibuya, Hagi Yuzu Ale is the star today.
MugiWhoa! So it’s a yuzu beer? And it’s a staple from Yamaguchi Local Beer too, which somehow feels reassuring!
Hop BroExactly. The style is Yuzu Pale Ale, and the ABV is 5.0%.
MugiI get pale ale, but what changes when you add yuzu? Does the aroma from the peel really make that much of a difference?
Hop BroThe point is that it brings out the aroma of Hagi-grown yuzu while keeping bitterness and harshness in check. The balance of refreshing character and bitterness is really good.
MugiOhhh! So it goes down easily, but still gives you real satisfaction? Easy drinkability matters!
Hop BroAnd today, HIGHBURY × Baeren’s Onmenbroy is on too, along with Nagisa Beer’s American Wheat.
MugiWait, what’s a Rauchbock? That smoked malt thing sounds like it’d smell almost like bacon!
Hop BroPretty much. Onmenbroy is a type with a substantial 7.5% body, and its toasty richness really comes through.
MugiSo basically, it’s the refreshing yuzu style, the smoky heavy style, and the gentle wheat style. This is a beer tasting paradise!
Hop Bro`taki` is open from 17:00 to 24:00, so it’s easy to drop by after work, and today feels like one of those nights when you just want a drink at the counter.
MugiYeah, I can’t hold back anymore! I want to toast with Hagi Yuzu Ale, and next I want to go after Onmenbroy too!
On April 27, the guest beer lineup was updated at beer pub `taki` in Sakuragaoka-cho, Shibuya. Business hours are 17:00 to 24:00, with food last order at 23:00 and drinks last order at 23:30. Located on the 3rd floor of Shibuya Johnson Building, it is an easy place to stop by after work.
The star of the day is Yamaguchi Local Beer’s staple brew, "Hagi Yuzu Ale." The style is listed as Yuzu Pale Ale, and the ABV is 5.0%. Brewed with yuzu from Hagi City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, the post explains that the recipe brings out the aroma of the peel while keeping bitterness and harshness in check. It is a beer that balances the refreshing character of yuzu with a moderate hop bitterness, combining an easy-drinking feel with satisfying depth.
Also on the tap list are HIGHBURY × Baeren’s "Onmenbroy" and Nagisa Beer’s "American Wheat." Onmenbroy is a Rauchbock from Baeren Brewery, known for the toasty aroma of smoked malt and a substantial 7.5% body. American Wheat is appealing for its soft mouthfeel and light, easy-drinking character derived from wheat, making this a lineup that lets you compare three beers with very different aromatic directions.
`taki` is known as a beer pub serving Japanese craft beer and sake. This time, the counter brings together flavors that move in different directions: yuzu aroma, smoky richness, and the gentle character of wheat. It is the kind of lineup that will interest both people who want to skip the usual go-to pint and those chasing the individuality of guest beers.
