Hop BroBeer Cafe Gambrinus in Kokubunji has a strong one today. On Saturday, June 20, it opens at 3 p.m. with a 13-tap lineup ready to go.
MugiWhat! A 3 p.m. opening means we can start while it's still bright out! And staying open till 1 a.m. is basically a stamina test, right?
Hop BroThe new tappings are Hansharo Beer's Strawberry Weizen Golden Berry and Iwate Kura Beer's Red Ale, so you get two contrasting pours side by side.
MugiNo way! But what is a fruit weizen exactly? The name is so fancy I feel sparkly just saying it!
Hop BroA weizen is a soft wheat beer, and when you layer fruit aroma onto it, you get that wheat-and-fruit style feel. Smooth, fluffy, and easy to drink.
MugiOkay, then the red ale is the one for malt character, right? I can feel my fake beer-expert face switching on!
Hop BroExactly. An Irish red ale makes that toasty grain profile easier to notice. And with Fuji Sakura Heights's Hoppy Kolsch, DD4D's Lucky Charm, and Kyoto Brewing's Orokanaru Bi, the style range is seriously broad.
MugiWhat is this lineup! Lager, IPA, dark beer, sour, and even Ushitora's If You're Lost, This Pale!? The menu is giving pep talks now!
Hop BroAnd the Coming Soon board already lists Hop Kotan's Upopo, Kyoto Brewing's Hyotto, Ushiku Brewery's Wonder Vogel IPA, and Hino Brewing's Shishimai Porter. A place with next-wave previews like that makes you want to keep coming back.
MugiThat is unfair in the best way. I want today's 13 taps and the next round too. My flight craving is completely out of control now!
Hop BroFood last order is 11 p.m., drinks last order is midnight, and they even have discounted Ganburi shichimi, so it's easy to settle in. First stop Saturday should be Gambrinus, starting with those two new tappings.
Beer Cafe GAMBRINUS / BEER CAFE GAMBRINUS in Kokubunji, Tokyo, shared its service notice for Saturday, June 20. The pub opens at 3 p.m. on Saturdays and runs from 15:00 to 25:00, with last orders at 23:00 for food and 24:00 for drinks.
The main draw is the tap list: 13 beers are available on draft. Two beers are marked as new pours for the day: Hansharo Beer / Strawberry Weizen Golden Berry [Fruit Weizen] and Iwate Kura Beer / Red Ale [Irish Red Ale]. The first leans into a fruity wheat-beer profile, while the second offers a malt-forward red ale character, giving guests two very different starting points.
The rest of the board spans a wide range of styles, including Fujizakura Kogen Beer / Hoppy Kölsch, DD4D / Lucky Charm [Double IPA], Ushitora / If in Doubt, This Pale! [American Pale Ale], Harvestmoon / Schwarz, Y Market Brewing / NEW Onigashima IX [Hazy IPA], Kagoya Brewery / Wa-Sou [Japanese Saison], Kyoto Brewing / The Foolish Beauty [Berliner Weisse], Flora Fermentation / Utsurobune [Hazy IPA], Kunitachi Brewery / Yonji-chu [Micro IPA], Craft Rock / One Hand Dunk [American IPA], and Pilsner Urquell. It is a lineup that moves from crisp lagers and saisons to sour and hop-forward beers, making it well suited to comparison drinking.
The post also previews four beers under “Coming Soon”: Hoppukotan Brewing / Upopo [Pilsner], Kyoto Brewing / Hyotto [Thiolized Belgian IPA], Ushiku Brewery / Wonder Vogel IPA [Hazy IPA], and Hino Brewing / Shishimai Porter [Baltic Porter]. For drinkers who like following a tap list over time, the rotation looks especially active.
Beer Cafe GAMBRINUS also noted a discount on its ガンブリ七味 seasoning set near its July best-before date. With a broad tap selection and a relaxed pub setting on the 6th floor in central Kokubunji, it remains a place where beer fans can settle in for an unhurried visit.
