Himalaya table in Kanda posts Sept. 3 tap list with Oni Densetsu and Minoh Beer
Himalaya table, a beer pub in Uchikanda, Tokyo, shared its tap lineup for Thursday, September 3. The board features eight drafts, including Oni Densetsu IPA, Minoh Beer’s Weiss IPA and Pilsner, and a balanced mix of lager and specialty styles.
Hop BroToday’s Kanda beer update is this: eight taps at Himalaya table look seriously strong. For the September 3 lineup, they’ve brought in Oni Densetsu and two from Minoh Beer.
MugiWhat! Oniwajo IPA and two Minoh pours already sound intense! A Nepalese food pub is rolling out a lineup like that?
Hop BroIt is, and that’s the fun part. The headliners are Oniwajo IPA from Oni Densetsu, Minoh Beer’s Weiss IPA, and Kin-Oni Pale Ale "Rock ver.II" as the hoppy crew.
MugiHold on, Weiss IPA? What is that supposed to be! A wheat beer? An IPA? I need it to pick a lane!
Hop BroThat mix is exactly why it works. It’s got white-beer-like aromatics with IPA-style hop character, so it feels soft on the palate but still smells vivid and punchy.
MugiOhhh! So it’s not just bitter, it’s more like soft and hoppy. Suddenly I feel like we could get along.
Hop BroAnd the smart part of this tap list is that it doesn’t lean only on IPA. It’s not bitterness-only, because there’s Nihonkai Club Dark Lager, ogna Hima Bitter, and Minoh Pilsner too.
MugiWow, so there are escape routes! Choosing the first glass would be the hard part. A pilsner sounds perfect if you want to settle in with food.
Hop BroThen you also get Nara Brewing’s Philharmonie BELGIAN WIT w/TACHIBANA and Hop Kotan’s AKIRA Bayashi. The toasty Marzen vibe should play really well with spiced dishes.
MugiMarzen!? That sounds like a magic spell. Please explain the tasty part before the technical part!
Hop BroPut simply, it’s about that toasted malt character feeling really good in the glass. Instead of showing off, it supports the food and rounds everything out.
MugiI get it now! You can charge in with IPA against the spices, or let lager and pilsner sit alongside the meal. Nepalese food and eight taps sounds like a very busy evening for both stomach and glass.
Hop BroExactly. In a place with that easygoing mood, this kind of spread is almost unfair. A proper drinking day in Kanda starts to look very convincing with a lineup like this.
MugiI’ve made up my mind, except I absolutely haven’t! Pour me the first one and I’ll probably already be planning the second.
Himalaya table, a beer pub on the second floor of the Daido Building in Uchikanda, Kanda, posted its tap list for Thursday, September 3. Known for pairing craft beer with Nepalese food, the bar lined up eight beers this time, spanning hop-forward IPA, lager, pilsner, Belgian wit, bitter, and märzen styles.
Tap list
- Oni Densetsu: Oni Iwajo IPA
- Minoh Beer: Weiss IPA
- Oni Densetsu: Kinki Pale Ale "Rock ver. II"
- Nihonkai Club: Dark Lager
- ogna: Hima Bitter
- Minoh Beer: Pilsner
- Nara Brewing: Philharmonie BELGIAN WIT w/TACHIBANA
- Hoppu Kokan: AKIRA Bayashi (Märzen)
The board is led by two IPAs, but it does not lean too heavily into hop intensity. Dark lager, pilsner, and bitter bring a more food-friendly balance, while the Belgian wit and märzen add a different pace to the lineup. That makes the board easy to approach whether you are stopping in for a beer-focused visit or sitting down with a full meal.
Himalaya table’s appeal is its relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere. For a night in Kanda where you want both a solid meal and a thoughtful pint selection, this is the kind of lineup that works well from start to finish.
