THE DODO HOUSE in Meguro lines up seven Japanese craft beers on Aug. 23
Craft Beer & Wine THE DODO HOUSE in Meguro posted its tap list on Instagram on Sunday, Aug. 23. The lineup featured seven Japanese draft beers, led by the house collaboration beer "I-Fu Do-Do," now on its eighth keg.
Hop BroTHE DODO HOUSE in Meguro put out a seriously good seven-tap lineup for August 23, and Ifu Dodo keg eight is still pouring.
MugiWait, an eighth keg already? And seven domestic taps in one place? That sounds dangerously efficient!
Hop BroThe headliner is Kankiku Brewery x THE DODO HOUSE's British-style lager Ifu Dodo. It's all about gentle hops and a nice deep malt character.
MugiHold on, British-style lager sounds like it arrives wearing a suit. What does that actually mean?
Hop BroBasically, it's a calm, steady sip kind of lager. Less flashy bitterness, more grain flavor and mellow balance.
MugiOooh, then tell me about Minoh Beer's domestic peach weizen. Is it dessert in a glass or what?
Hop BroNot quite dessert. The wheat softness and peach aroma in the Wase peach version make it bright and fruity without getting syrupy.
MugiWhat is this lineup! They've also got Snow Monkey IPA Orange ver. and Good Hops' IBUKI-led IPA? My inner hop gremlin is awake now!
Hop BroAnd it keeps going with Yokohama Lager, Hideji Beer's Ki wa Yasashikute Chikaramochi, and Kyoto Brewing's Sharaku, so you even get that ESB malt depth in the mix.
MugiSo it's lager, IPA, weizen, and ESB all in one stop, and you can go glass or pint? That's not casual, that's a Meguro drinking plan.
Hop BroExactly, and with creative food plus both counter and table seating, this feels like a proper destination spot rather than just a quick beer stop.
MugiThen it's settled. Start with Ifu Dodo, drift into peach weizen or IPA, and make it a very necessary beer night.
Seven Japanese taps in Meguro
Craft Beer & Wine THE DODO HOUSE in Meguro updated its tap list in an Instagram post dated Sunday, Aug. 23. The pub is built around seven Japanese draft beer taps, and this lineup brings together styles that range from lager to IPA, wheat beer, and ESB.
The standout is "I-Fu Do-Do," a collaboration beer from Kankiku Brewery and THE DODO HOUSE itself. Now on its eighth keg, it is presented as a British lager with a calm, malt-forward profile and gentle hop character rather than an aggressive, flashy finish.
The beers on tap
The post listed these seven beers:
- Kankiku Brewery x THE DODO HOUSE / I-Fu Do-Do
- Yokohama Beer / Yokohama Lager
- Minoh Beer / Domestic Peach Weizen [Wase ver.]
- Shiga Kogen Beer / Snow Monkey IPA Orange ver.
- Miyazaki Hideji Beer / Ki wa Yasa shiku Te Dchikaramochi
- Good Hops / IPA featuring Toono-grown IBUKI hops
- Kyoto Brewing / Sharaku Extra Special Bitter
Together, the lineup offers a wide drinking range: crisp lager, fruit-driven weizen, hop-forward IPA, and a maltier British-style bitter. It is the kind of list that rewards a slow tasting session.
A pub built for drinking and eating well
THE DODO HOUSE also serves Japanese wine, Japanese spirits, and Japanese-Western fusion dishes, so it works as more than just a beer stop. With both counter and table seating, it suits an easy solo drink or a longer meal with friends.
For drinkers looking for a Meguro spot centered on Japanese craft beer, this is a strong place to start.
