Bakushu Yumeyomi in Kyoto lists four draft beers and fresh salsiccia
On April 18, the Gion beer pub Bakushu Yumeyomi in Kyoto shared a tap update featuring four draft beers and a freshly delivered food lineup. The post highlighted beers from Yorocco Beer, Shiro Suzume, Baeren Brewery, and Minoh Beer, alongside salsiccia and other beer-friendly dishes.
Hop BroAt Mugiyume Yomi in Gion-Shijo, they posted a four-tap lineup on April 18. And every keg sounded like it was already running low.
MugiWhat! The words running low make my walking speed double. What beers were on?
Hop BroIt was basically a four-brewery showcase: Yorocco Beer’s Italian Pils, Shirosuzume’s IPA, Baeren Brewery’s Rauchbock, and Minoh Beer’s Session Black IPA.
MugiHold on, Rauchbock? What is that? It sounds like I should cast it, not order it.
Hop BroClose enough, because the aroma really is smoky. It’s a smoked-malt bock, so that toasty depth sits perfectly next to meat dishes.
MugiOkay, but Session Black IPA makes my brain skid a little. It’s black, but sessionable?
Hop BroThat’s the fun part. It’s dark but easygoing: it looks rich, but drinks light. And the Italian Pils keeps that crisp pils snap with a more floral hop lift, while the IPA brings citrusy aroma and bitterness.
MugiAnd as if the beer list wasn’t enough, they had fresh-delivered salsiccia too, right? My stomach has already voted yes.
Hop BroYep, and not just the standard one. There was a black garlic version with scallions, plus fresh fries with chaat masala. That place knows how to tempt a pairing nerd.
MugiWait, chaat masala fries too? That’s not a snack, that’s a carefully engineered second pint.
Hop BroIt’s on the second floor of Shimanoya Building in Gion, and they’re solo-drinker friendly with no reservations. You can just wander in, and they even mentioned a big bottle of Otokogi Lambic plus Black Label pouring on April 24 and 25.
MugiThat settles it. Before the kegs run dry, I want the salsiccia, the Rauchbock, and that black-but-light IPA in that exact order.
Four drafts on the board
Bakushu Yumeyomi, a beer pub in Kyoto's Gion area, posted an update on April 18 covering the remaining draft lineup and food. The four beers listed were Yorocco Beer's Italian Pils, Shiro Suzume IPA, Baeren Brewery's Rauchbock, and Minoh Beer's Session Black IPA. All were described as running low, making the update especially relevant for beer drinkers who want to catch the lineup while it is still available.
The beer descriptions point to a wide range of flavors. The Italian Pils leans on crisp pilsner character with a brighter hop note. The IPA brings citrus aroma and bitterness. The Rauchbock is defined by the toasty, smoked-malt side of the style, which makes it a natural match for meat. The Session Black IPA is dark in color but lighter in drinking weight, so it offers a more approachable way to move through a black IPA.
Fresh salsiccia and pub food
The food note for the day was "freshly delivered salsiccia." In addition to the standard version, the pub also offered a dish with black garlic and scallions. Fries came with chaat masala, adding another beer-friendly option to the table. The menu reads like a pub kitchen that is built around pairing with beer rather than standing apart from it.
A relaxed stop in central Kyoto
The pub is located on the second floor of the Shimaya Building in Higashiyama, Kyoto. The post said solo guests are welcome and that reservations are not accepted, which makes it a place you can drop into without much planning. The same update also mentioned a bottle of Otokogaki Lambic and noted that Yebisu Beer would be paused on April 24 and 25, with Sapporo Black Label scheduled instead. For drinkers exploring Gion, it is the kind of place where draft beer, bottled beer, and freshly made food all sit comfortably together.
