Antonbee Ryudomachi Store to Pour Mother Road and 10 Other Kegs on Saturday, 5/23
Antonbee Ryudomachi Store, a sister location of CRAFT BEER Antonbee Roppongi in Ryudomachi, Roppongi, has released its draft lineup for Saturday, May 23. From Mother Road's citrus IPA and Beer Herun's milk stout to cider, the selection spans a wide range from IPA to cider.
Hop BroToday's topic is the May 23 (Sat) tap list at Antonbee Ryudomachi Store, the sister location in Roppongi. From Mother Road to Beer Herun and Zeraia, it's a generous 10-keg lineup.
MugiWhoa! Ten kegs is a lot! And it goes from IPA to cider too? Just choosing sounds like it'll get me tipsy!
Hop BroWhat's nice is that it also has Helles and XPA for the first pour. Basqueland's Santa Clara is crisp and clean, and YOKOHAMA Bay's Flatland is light on its feet, so the lineup eases you in gently.
MugiHuh! But what's an XPA, anyway, some kind of spell? Tell me what XPA really is!
Hop BroBroadly speaking, it's a kind of light, easy-drinking pale ale. It doesn't hit you with hops as hard as an IPA, but the aroma still comes through, so it's drinkable without feeling thin.
MugiI get it! Then I might be curious about the milk stout. Beer Herun's EN-MUSUBI Stout sounds sweet just from the name, and delicious!
Hop BroExactly. It's the kind with gentle sweetness and roasted character that's fun to drink. Pair that with something like Mother Road's Roadside Grove, a Citrus IPA, and the citrus aroma really sharpens the edges.
MugiWhoa, suddenly that sounds advanced! But having two Hazy IPAs really does feel like a hop-lover's paradise!
Hop BroThat's the fun part. With Hopworks' Vera Haze Frequency and Prairie's Merica Y'all, you can do a side-by-side comparison of cloudy beers. And with Brasserie Knot's Belgian White, 8bit's sour, and Zeraia's sidra too, the flavor map gets pretty wide.
MugiAnd it's open 2:00 PM-12:00 AM, so you can take your time from daytime drinking onward! If food is available until 11:00 PM, then the weekend plan is basically decided.
Hop BroIt's great that you can drink calmly in the basement in Roppongi, and the lineup is really well suited to tasting comparisons. Today I'd start with the XPA and finish with the Citrus IPA or the cider.
MugiI agree! Being stuck choosing from the very first drink is so much fun. I already want to go to Antonbee Ryudomachi Store right now and work through everything one by one!

Looking at the lineup, it starts with easy-to-drink options like the XPA and Helles for the first pour, while also offering two hazy IPAs for those who want a solid hop presence. With a milk stout, cider, and sour also included, the range of flavors is quite broad. It's a setup that also works well for drinking with fellow beer fans and comparing preferences.
The shop is located underground in Roppongi, making it a beer pub-style spot where you can relax with a glass. It's convenient for weekend daytime drinking through late-night visits, and the lineup makes it easy to build anything from a casual one-drink stop to a longer tasting session. A party plan is also available, so it seems like a practical choice for larger gatherings.
