Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke Adds Himitsu Beer and CRAFT BANK on June 30
On June 30, Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke announced two new guest taps: Himitsu Beer’s Rakko Nihiki and CRAFT BANK’s BANK IPA. The underground beer pub near Akasaka-Mitsuke Station continues to focus on Japanese craft beer across a broad tap lineup.
Hop BroThere’s a fresh tap update in Akasaka-Mitsuke. On June 30 new tapping, Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke brought in two IPA kegs.
MugiWait, two at once!? At a place with up to 31 taps, that sounds like a happy little crisis.
Hop BroThe stars this time are Himitsu Beer’s Rakko ni Hiki from Mie and CRAFT BANK’s BANK IPA from Kyoto.
MugiThat name is adorable, but then the description goes full power mode. What is DDH IPA supposed to mean?
Hop BroDDH means piling on extra dry hops to push the aroma way forward. So think maxed-out hop aroma with a juicy IPA vibe.
MugiOkay, so the otter-named beer is actually here to attack with fragrance. A juicy pour sounds extremely dangerous for my self-control.
Hop BroMeanwhile, BANK IPA is a West Coast IPA from Kyoto’s CRAFT BANK, with sharper bitterness and cleaner hop definition.
MugiThat style name sounds like it should come with sunglasses. When you say dry and crisp, what does that really mean?
Hop BroBasically, it doesn’t linger with sweetness and finishes clean. That makes this pair great for comparison, because the personalities split nicely.
MugiAnd it’s near Akasaka-Mitsuke Station, down on a calm basement floor, right? That is elite after-work beer energy.
Hop BroExactly. I’d start with BANK IPA alongside some food, then move to Rakko ni Hiki for the aroma rush. Guest tap days are always worth chasing.
MugiDecision made. I’m opening with Rakko ni Hiki and finishing with BANK IPA. Pour them immediately!
New taps on June 30
Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke added two guest beers on June 30:
- Himitsu Beer / Rakko Nihiki
A DDH IPA from Mie. It adds a hop-forward, aromatic option to the pub’s draft lineup.
- CRAFT BANK / BANK IPA
A West Coast IPA from Kyoto. It is a good pick for drinkers who want a drier, more classic hop profile.
The bar is located on the basement floor near Akasaka-Mitsuke Station and is known as a Japanese craft beer specialist. With up to 31 taps, it offers the appeal of a constantly rotating draft selection, where guest beers can sit alongside the regular lineup.
Both additions are IPA styles, so the day’s taps make for an easy comparison: a DDH IPA built around aroma, and a West Coast IPA with a cleaner, more bitter finish. That makes the pair especially appealing for anyone who enjoys exploring different hop expressions.
For an after-work stop in Akasaka, the venue’s underground pub atmosphere makes it a practical place to slow down, order a fresh pour, and pair it with food.
