OPEN AIR x Repubrew’s Botanical Groove Arrives at Ureshii Crepe and Craft Beer Shop
Ureshii Crepe and Craft Beer Shop in Aobadai, Meguro, announced a guest beer service for Tuesday, June 30, from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. The featured beer is Botanical Groove, a collaboration between OPEN AIR in Kobe and Repubrew in Numazu, Shizuoka.
Hop BroHere’s a good one today: Botanical Groove just landed at Ureshii Crepe to Craft Beer in Aobadai, Meguro. A collab between OPEN AIR and Repubrew already has my attention.
MugiWait, crepes and beer in the same shop, and the beer sounds like a band name? I’m curious and slightly scared!
Hop BroAnd this one is an IPA built around craft gin aromatics, so it’s not just about bitterness; it’s really a fragrance-forward pour.
MugiWhat does gin in an IPA even mean? Did the beer borrow perfume and a fancy jacket?
Hop BroBasically, they’re translating herbal and spicy gin-like notes into beer aroma. So think botanical character more than brute-force bitterness.
MugiOhhh! So instead of drinking first, I should do a big sniff first and let my nose clock in before my mouth?
Hop BroExactly. The fun part here is the aroma design; it opens nicely on the nose and lingers in the finish.
MugiYou say finish like it’s cinema! And in Aobadai, from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m., that sounds like a very dangerous after-work stop.
Hop BroA very reasonable stop. Since it’s Ureshii Crepe to Craft Beer, pairing it with a sweet crepe could actually work really well.
MugiThat settles it! I want Botanical Groove in hand while you narrate the aroma notes like a nature documentary.
Hop BroFair enough. I’m ready for a pint right now too, and this OPEN AIR x Repubrew guest tap sounds absolutely worth chasing.
Ureshii Crepe and Craft Beer Shop in Aobadai, Meguro, highlighted a guest beer for its June 30 service, running from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. The beer on deck is Botanical Groove, a collaboration between OPEN AIR in Kobe and Repubrew in Numazu, Shizuoka. In the post, it is described as an IPA that translates the aroma of craft gin into beer, giving it a clearly botanical profile.
That makes it a good fit for drinkers looking for something more aromatic than a standard hop-forward IPA. The shop itself also suits that style of pour: it is a place where crepes and craft beer share the same counter, so you can pair a sweet bite with a flavorful guest tap and settle in for a relaxed drink.
Rather than chasing intensity, Botanical Groove sounds like a beer built around layered aroma and a distinctive spice-driven impression. For craft beer fans, it is the kind of guest beer worth noting when it appears on the board.
