HOP MAN, a beer pub in Tsukementa, Chigasaki, announced a fresh guest-beer tap on June 12. The beer is CONIX BRUT IPA from Repubrew, a Brut IPA at 6.5% ABV.

In the post, the beer is presented as a bronze-winning entry from the World Beer Cup 2026, taking third place overall. It is described as a Brut IPA built around a very dry finish, with grape-like fruitiness, mandarin citrus, pine, and a cedarwood-like aroma. The carbonation is firm, and the finish is clean and snappy, which makes the beer feel especially sharp for the style.

HOP MAN is known as a beer pub where roughly 30 draft beers rotate daily, and it also has an attached bottle shop. That makes it a natural fit for a beer like this: a distinctive, award-recognized Brut IPA that works both as a first pint and as a food-friendly beer at the table. For drinkers in Chigasaki, this tap opening is a straightforward chance to try a World Beer Cup–recognized beer in a casual, beer-focused setting.
