Hop BroThere’s a new tap at BEER MARROW in Kichijoji today, and BLACK TIDE BREWING's "Pray for 3.11 ver2.0" is on it, right?
MugiWhoa! Just the title is enough to hit me right in the chest... A beer with a name like a prayer — what does it taste like?
Hop BroThis is an IPA brewed by BLACK TIDE from Kesennuma, Miyagi, and it's a beer made with hope for the future in mind.
MugiI get that it's an IPA, but this is one where the hop aroma takes the lead, right? I’m curious what else is coming through!
Hop BroThe flavor has a sweet fruitiness like pear, a piney aroma, and a bitterness that sharpens everything up at the finish.
MugiPear, pine, and bitterness? That’s a lot to take in! But it sounds delicious... so this is a beer to savor slowly for its aroma, right?
Hop BroExactly. And on top of that, today’s lineup has five taps in total, so it’s a fun day for tasting side by side.
MugiThat sounds amazing! If it goes from Italian Pilsner to West Coast IPA, it’s basically a hop journey from start to finish!
Hop BroWith Flocking 2026, MAGNETAR, Two-Tone, and GSP one in the mix, going from light to rich in one straight run is what makes BEER MARROW feel like BEER MARROW.
MugiAnd they play records too, right? With the synergy of music and beer, that place must be the ultimate rabbit hole...
Hop BroExactly, and they were scheduled to be open until 11:00 p.m., so it’s nice that you can take your time with each glass.
MugiOkay, I’ve decided. Tonight I want to go to Kichijoji for a beer with a story!
Hop BroThen let’s toast with this one at the end: savor the aroma and aftertaste, and make it a night that leaves both of us wanting a pour!
In a post shared on March 24, the beer pub BEER MARROW (4F, Kawada Building) in Kichijoji Honcho, Tokyo announced the day's tap lineup. The main highlight this time is the new tapping of BLACK TIDE BREWING (Kesennuma, Miyagi) "Pray for 3.11 ver2.0".
The post describes the beer as an IPA brewed with hopes for the future and the wish that people can keep moving forward. Tasting notes also mention a sweet fruity character reminiscent of pear, a piney aroma, and a bitterness that tightens the finish, making this a beer to savor for its aroma and aftertaste rather than simply keep drinking pint after pint.
The taps for the day were lined up as follows.
- Flocking 2026 (Italian Pilsner / 4.5%) - Inkhorn Brewing (Mejiro, Tokyo)
- MAGNETAR (DDH DIPA / 8.5%) - UCHU BREWING (Hokuto, Yamanashi)
- Pray for 3.11 ver2.0 (IPA / 7.5%) - BLACK TIDE BREWING (Kesennuma, Miyagi)
- Two-Tone (Double Mash DDH DIPA / 9.0%) - Teenage Brewing (Tokigawa Town, Saitama)
- GSP one (West Coast IPA / 6.0%) - Inosu Beer (Tokyo)
From a brisk Pilsner to hop-forward DIPAs and a crisp West Coast IPA, the clear path for a tasting flight is very much in keeping with BEER MARROW's style. The post also mentions that records are played in the shop, and the atmosphere comes through as one where music and craft beer can be enjoyed at the same pitch.
It also noted that the shop was scheduled to be open until 11:00 p.m. that day. Since opening times vary by day, between 4:00 p.m., 5:00 p.m., and 6:00 p.m., it's worth checking before visiting. If you want a beer with a story and a wide range of taps in Kichijoji, this is one to keep on your list.
