Shibuya's Taki〜AKANE〜 opens at 5 p.m. on 4/5, with three draft beers including Daidai Ale
The beer pub "Taki〜AKANE〜JapaneseBeer&SakeDining" in Shibuya's Dogenzaka will be open from 5:00 p.m. to midnight on Sunday, 4/5. For the first two hours after opening, it will be Happy Time, with an announcement inviting guests to enjoy three draft beers alongside Japanese snacks.
Hop BroShibuya's Dogenzaka Taki〜AKANE〜 is opening at 5 p.m. on 4/5. And for the first two hours, it's Happy Time, so it's hot that you can aim for the three draft beers right away.
MugiWait, the first two hours after opening are that good? That's the kind of thing people race to after work!
Hop BroExactly. That day's draft lineup has three beers: Rocovia's "Sakura Kori no Nama (Kölsch)", Hitachino Nest's "Daidai Ale", and Minoh Beer's "Osaru IPA".
MugiWhat even is a Kölsch? It sounds airy, like the beer world's "polite senior" or something.
Hop BroPretty close. Kölsch is crisp and light with top fermentation, with restrained aroma and a clean finish. That's why it's perfect as a first drink.
MugiOhhh! So the newly tapped Daidai Ale sounds like it has citrus power written all over it just from the name?
Hop BroExactly. Hitachino Nest's Fukure mikan citrus character comes through, and it's being presented as an IPA that's easy to pair with food. The fact that it's suited to drinking with meals is impressive.
MugiAn IPA that's good with food isn't just bitter! Then I might actually be able to drink it with dinner too, which is reassuring.
Hop BroThat's where it really shines. They've got yellowtail, sea bream, octopus, plus smoked daikon and sake lees cream cheese, so the range of Japanese snacks is really wide.
MugiEven currywurst is on the menu? That's unfair! Today you can go from Japanese dishes to hearty plates, and both the beer and food sound impossible to stop at!
Hop BroIt's perfect for a night that starts slowly in Dogenzaka. Starting at 5 p.m., it's the kind of place where you can really enjoy that first drink at a relaxed pace.
MugiI definitely want to go! Starting with a drink right after opening and then grazing through the snacks while drinking sounds absolutely perfect!
Shibuya's Dogenzaka "Taki〜AKANE〜JapaneseBeer&SakeDining" will be open on Sunday, 4/5 from 5:00 p.m. to midnight. The post says that for the first two hours after opening, it will be "Akane's Happy Time," a window that makes it easy to catch a first drink right after opening.
There are three draft beers on tap that day.
- Rocovia "Sakura Kori no Nama" (Kölsch)
- Hitachino Nest Beer "Daidai Ale" (IPA)
- Minoh Beer "Osaru IPA"
Among them, Hitachino Nest Beer's "Daidai Ale" (IPA), introduced as a new tap, is described as having a citrus character derived from Fukure mikan and a flavor designed with food pairing in mind, making it an IPA worth paying attention to as a beer suited to drinking with meals. As you would expect from a beer pub, it is easy to build a pairing not just around the beer itself, but around the dishes served with it.
The food lineup includes fresh fish such as yellowtail, sea bream, and octopus, as well as smoked daikon with sake lees cream cheese, spicy potato fries, fried oysters, Pacific saury, monkfish milt, oversized tuna minced cutlet, currywurst, and more. From Japanese bar snacks to more substantial plates, the range is broad, making it easy to imagine enjoying them with Japanese craft beer.
It is the kind of service announcement that suits a night in Dogenzaka when you want to start drinking at a relaxed pace from opening time.
