Awashima Soko Publishes Five-Tap List Including Kölsch in May 4 Notice
The beer pub Awashima Soko in Daizawa, Setagaya Ward, released its business-hours notice for Monday, May 4, along with that day’s tap list. From Kölsch to West Coast IPA, the lineup spans the distinct personalities of five breweries, including YOROCCO, Mugi Zakkoku Kobo, and BREW CLASSIC.
Hop BroToday’s topic is the tap list at the beer pub in Daizawa, Setagaya Ward, Awashima Soko. The guide for Monday, May 4 says you can drink from noon during Golden Week, which is already pretty great, right?
MugiWhat, you can drink from noon until 10 p.m.!? That’s not a “just one drink” kind of plan, that’s a full-on drinking session in a disguise!
Hop BroAnd the lineup is solid too. Starting with KaruizawaQ / Tomarigi Kölsch is a nice touch. It’s a German-style Kölsch that’s light and easy to drink.
MugiWhat even is Kölsch? A beer that’s “light and easy to drink” sounds like magic!
Hop BroBroadly speaking, it’s a top-fermented beer that goes down cleanly. It has the sweetness of malt, but it isn’t heavy, so it’s perfect for a slow Golden Week drinking session.
MugiOhh! Then I’m curious about the next one too, Tobiuo Saison 2026! Just the name already has energy. Does it fly? Swim?
Hop BroThat’s YOROCCO’s Farmhouse Ale. It has the carbonation and aroma you expect from a Saison, with a bit of wildness, like a drink after coming back from the fields.
MugiA drink after coming back from the fields? What does that even mean! But somehow it sounds delicious! And then Ogawa Porter suddenly feels like a dark heavyweight has entered the room!
Hop BroThat’s the interesting part. A Robust Porter is all about the roasty aroma of the toasted malt. And with YEXIT’s West Coast IPA and BREW CLASSIC’s Wheat IPA also on the list, the flavor range is really nicely spread out.
MugiWhoa, that’s a traffic jam of aroma and bitterness! But that lineup makes it feel like there’s a good flow, starting light and then getting more serious toward the end!
Hop BroExactly. And since the shop recommends small groups of four people or fewer, it’s nice that you can follow the rotating taps at a relaxed pace.
MugiThat sounds amazing... day drinking on Awashima Dori. Just imagining it makes my throat go dry! Today I want to start with a Kölsch and finish with one more strong beer!

Looking at the lineup, the range of flavors is clear, from a brisk Kölsch and Saison to a Robust Porter, a West Coast IPA, and a Wheat IPA. It is appealing that both easy-drinking beers for daytime sipping and dark styles meant for a slower pace appear on the same day. As the Golden Week notice suggests, encouraging a relaxed, all-day drinking session, the list makes it easy to build a flow from the first glass to the next few.
Awashima Soko is a beer pub along Awashima Dori. Because the interior is not especially spacious, the notice recommends small-group use of four people or fewer.
