Hop BroAt Craft Beer Bar & Bottle Shop Progress in Musashi-Kosugi, there was news of a 10-tap update. The April 11, 2026 “PROGRESS ON TAP” lineup is looking especially lively today.
MugiWow, 10 beers lined up like that? That’s the kind of thing that makes you happy before you even choose. And it has Shonan Beer, TKBrewing, and even Shiga Kogen!?
Hop BroThe first thing to note is Shonan Beer’s Alt. It’s a German-style Altbier at 5.0% ABV, with a nice balance of malt sweetness, refreshing hop character, and mild bitterness.
MugiEven though it’s called Alt, is it basically a grandpa beer? It sounds like it would have a pretty serious face!
Hop BroHaha, not at all. The appeal of Alt is that it’s a top-fermented reddish-brown style with a drinkability that feels a bit lager-like. It’s the kind of beer that goes well with food, and it’s understated but genuinely tasty.
MugiI see! In that case, TKBrewing’s stout with blackberries sounds interesting too, and I’d also like to refresh myself with Ise Kadoya Beer’s West Coast Pilsner!
Hop BroThe lineup really goes all out, doesn’t it? Progress has everything from light and crisp to rich and heavy. Miyama Blonde, DGB Wheat Day, Hazy IPA, Belgian IPA, Dip Hop IPA, and more. Today is the kind of day when you choose based on your mood.
MugiWait, so because it has a bottle shop attached, does that mean take-home beers are a big deal too!? Even walk-around beers are available? That’s pretty bold!
Hop BroExactly, and Wednesdays and Thursdays are 20% off. But you can’t drink inside the store or on the premises, so you have to follow the rules there. It also has outdoor seating and is pet-friendly, which is another nice touch.
MugiI get it. A beer comparison session in Musashi-Kosugi already feels like the weekend. Sipping an Alt slowly, then going for a Hazy IPA, just thinking about it makes my throat thirsty!
Hop BroThen tonight, let’s toast to Progress’s 10 beers that you can choose by mood. I’ll have the Alt, and Mugi can go with the Hazy IPA. It sounds like that could easily turn into one more round.
