Hop BroAwashima Soko in Daizawa, Setagaya is pouring four distinctive taps on October 25. You can travel from lager to stout in one visit.
MugiWhat? Four completely different styles? As a tasting beginner, where do I even start?
Hop BroStart with NOVORU’s “Migaku.” It’s a lager made for food, so it’s a perfect weekend-lunch partner.
MugiBeer with lunch sounds perfect! But yorocco’s “Afterglow” has a red IPA-style color—is the beer actually red?
Hop BroPretty much! Its malt brings reddish color and body. IPA means India Pale Ale: a hop-forward, pleasantly bitter beer.
Mugi“Hop-forward and bitter”... that was suddenly very expert! Does “hop presence” mean the hops take center stage?
Hop BroExactly. Think citrusy or grassy aromas and a crisp bitterness up front. Afterglow looks like a fragrant, red-hued IPA to watch.
MugiOoh! Then Hometown Stout is a dry stout? Its name alone gives me a dark and heavy feeling!
Hop BroIt may look dark, but dry stout can be surprisingly light on its feet. Expect roasty flavor with an easy finish—the nimble runner of dark beers.
MugiA dark beer going for a run! And BREW CLASSIC’s “Brutch Brothers” features bright NZ IPA aromas, right?
Hop BroRight—expect New Zealand hop character and refreshing IPA bitterness. Regular hours run 11:30 to 21:00, and the evening has a reservation-only METHI spice-food collaboration, so check the details.
MugiLager at lunch, IPA in the afternoon, spice food at night... and takeaway sales are back too! I want to take home my favorite pour. Now I really want to visit Awashima Soko!
Awashima Soko, a compact beer pub in Daisawa, Setagaya, has announced its tap list for October 25, 2026. The pub will operate with four taps, offering a balanced selection that moves from a crisp lager to hop-forward and dark styles.
NOVORU’s “Migaku” leads the list as a Lager, making it a straightforward choice for a refreshing beer or a pairing with lunch. yorocco contributes two beers: “Afterglow,” a Red IPA, and “Hometown Stout,” a Dry Stout. The former should appeal to drinkers looking for red malt character and hop aroma, while the latter offers a darker, roast-driven option with a relatively dry finish.
The fourth beer is BREW CLASSIC’s “ブルッチブラザーズ,” listed as an NZ IPA. Its New Zealand hop character and bright bitterness provide a more aromatic direction for IPA fans.
Awashima Soko will open from 11:30 to 21:00, with last orders at 20:30. Lunch service runs from 11:30 to 14:30. In the evening, METHI and Awashima Soko will hold a reservation-only collaboration service from 17:30 to 22:00; reservations are accepted until 16:00 on the day. Beer retail sales are also scheduled to resume, giving visitors the option to take bottles or cans home. Because the venue is small, groups of up to four people are recommended.
