Craft Beer 2mugi, about a 3-minute walk from Akihabara Station's Showa-dori exit, is a craft beer pub run by a German-certified beer sommelier. For July 18, the shop announced a 4 p.m. opening because of prep work, with six fresh beers on tap.

Draft lineup


- TAP1: Shiokaze BrewLab Stand / `Kaka Shinshin` / Coffee Stout
- TAP2: Baird Beer / `Cool Breeze Pils` / Pilsner
- TAP3: ISEKADO / `Ise Kado Pale Ale` / Pale Ale
- TAP4: Zakkoku Kobo / `IRODORI Saison UME` / Saison with Japanese plum
- TAP5: Zakkoku Kobo / `Cereal Weizen` / Weizen
- TAP6: Noroshi Brewery / `Noroshi IPA` / Juicy IPA

The lineup spans a coffee stout, a crisp pilsner, a plum saison, a wheat beer, and a juicy IPA. TAP5 and TAP6 are already marked low on stock, and once they kick, `Yellow Warbler` from Inkhorn Brewing is next in line as a Hazy DIPA. It is the kind of tap list that invites comparison, from light and clean to fruity and hop-forward.

The shop also keeps bottled and canned beer in its bottle section, including items from Finback Brewery. In short, it works both as a place to settle in for draft beer and as a stop for takeaway cans and bottles.
