Hop BroTHE DODO HOUSE in Meguro has a pretty hot 8-tap spring lineup for March 19.
MugiWow! So there are that many choices in Meguro? And there’s a new tap opening too!
Hop BroThe highlight this time is Johana Beer’s Mukaino no Sakura, a limited edition that adds peach juice to their popular Earl Grey.
MugiWhat is that! Tea and peach sounds like dessert already. What kind of beer style is it?
Hop BroIn this case, it’s basically an adjunct-style idea: adding ingredients for aroma, then finishing with a barley note at the end.
MugiOhh! It starts out feeling softly sweet, but still ends with a beer character. That contrast is unfair!
Hop BroThe rest is strong too: Gargery “Estella,” Kyoto Brewing “6 Days Off,” and Tsumari’s “Heavy Snow Pale Ale” make for a full lineup of domestic beers.
MugiWait, Kankiku’s Sake Lees Smoothie already has way too much information in the name!
Hop BroA smoothie-style beer is the kind you enjoy for its fruitiness and thick texture, and this is an aggressively adventurous glass with sake lees character layered on top.
MugiI see... with everything from spice-driven beers to pale ales, just the first-drink strategy meeting would take 30 minutes.
Hop BroIt’s open from 17:00 to 24:00, reservations are available, and the bench seating has no charge, so it’s locked in as a tonight’s beer stop for a stroll along the Meguro River.
MugiDeal! I’m starting with Mukaino no Sakura, then moving on to 6 Days Off. Let’s go drink now!

As signs of spring grow stronger, the appeal is being able to choose from a wide range of styles, from spice and herb-driven beers to pale ales and smoothie-style brews. Paired with the seasonal atmosphere around the Meguro River area, there is also the fun of deciding what to drink first.
The shop is a beer pub that also serves wine in addition to craft beer.
