Yumeyomi to serve Brasserie Knot and 3 Fonteinen on Aug. 13 Beer Day
The Kyoto beer pub 麥酒 夢詠ミ will hold its weekly Thursday Maniac Beer Day on August 13. Draft service includes Brasserie Knot’s AWA helles lager, while the glass pour is 3 Fonteinen’s Druif Riesling Harth+Harth lambic.
Hop BroTonight's topic is Thursday Maniac Beer Day. Beer Pub Mugishu Yumeyomi in Gion, Kyoto is lining up two seriously distinctive pours from 5 to 11 p.m. on August 13.
MugiWait, Mugishu Yumeyomi already sounds intense... what are they serving?
Hop BroOn draft it's Brasserie Knot's AWA, a Helles lager, and by the glass it's 3Fonteinen's Druif Riesling Harth+Harth, which is a lambic.
MugiWhoa, Helles lager sounds like a spell. How is that different from just regular lager?
Hop BroHelles is a pale German-style lager with soft malty sweetness and a clean finish. It doesn't show off, it just quietly tastes great.
MugiThat totally sounds like a snack trap. The article's Tono new potatoes with okaka butter feel dangerously perfect already.
Hop BroExactly. AWA should pair with the potatoes, while the lambic can play nicely with the blueberry salad with prosciutto and carrot rapee.
MugiHold on, what is lambic exactly? And Riesling grapes in beer? Did this pour wander into a wine bar by accident?
Hop BroLambic is a Belgian beer fermented with wild ambient yeast, so it's basically a spontaneous-fermentation original. Add Riesling grapes and you get extra fruit depth on top.
MugiThat is a lot for my brain to process! And about 140 ml for 2,000 yen a glass? That's the kind of pour that makes you sip with ceremony.
Hop BroRight, this is not a fast chugging beer. It's built for slow, careful sipping. And the whole 'no Yebisu today' note honestly makes me want these two even more.
MugiI'm sold. A calm Helles first, then a shocking fruity lambic on a Gion Thursday night? Now both of us want a drink immediately.
Kyoto beer pub 麥酒 夢詠ミ will run its weekly "Maniac Beer Day" on Thursday, August 13, from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. In the post, the bar notes that Yebisu will not be served that day and instead highlights two specialty pours.
- Draft: Brasserie Knot "AWA" helles lager
- Glass pour: 3 Fonteinen "Druif Riesling Harth+Harth," a lambic infused with Riesling grapes
- Pricing note: the glass pour is listed at JPY 2,000 for about 140 ml
Food options include Tono new potatoes with okaka butter, plus a salad with blueberries, prosciutto, and carrot rapée. The lineup suggests a simple pairing style: a malty lager with comforting bar snacks, and a more complex lambic alongside something fruit-forward.
Located on the second floor of Shima-ya Building in Gion, the beer pub presents itself as a place for solo drinkers rather than large groups. For people who want to spend a quiet evening in Kyoto’s Gion area with carefully chosen beers, this is a fitting stop.
