Awashima Soko taps five beers from YOROCCO, karuizawaQ and open air on July 2
Awashima Soko, a beer pub in Taizawa, Setagaya, Tokyo, posted its July 2 tap list. The lineup features five beers from YOROCCO, karuizawaQ and open air, with weekday service from 6 p.m. to midnight and a small, intimate room setup.
Hop BroTonight’s lineup at Dazawa’s beer pub Awashima Soko on July 2 is seriously solid, with five taps that each bring a different personality.
MugiWhat, five fresh taps at once? That already sounds like a mini festival! Which breweries are on?
Hop BroThe roster is strong. YOROCCO, karuizawaQ, and open air, and two beers from YOROCCO is a nice little flex.
MugiOh wow! But I’d totally freeze just reading the names. Another Afternoon says Saison w/Oak Chip... why does that sound like chemistry class?
Hop BroFair question. A saison with oak chips means wood is used to add a barrel-like aroma, so you get something spicy and a bit more layered.
MugiThat actually sounds fancy! And if they’ve got everything from lager to IPA, you can start light and work your way up.
Hop BroExactly. Down To Earth is a Hoppy Light Lager, Blackbird Shipping is a Belgian Porter with more weight, and hopful mind, the Hazy IPA leans soft and juicy.
MugiHold on, hazy, Belgian porter, oak chips... this is a pint-sized info overload! Where is a beginner supposed to start?
Hop BroStart with how you want it to feel. Crisp means lager, aroma-forward means IPA, mellow and deeper means porter, and Shakou, the American IPA is the sharp-bitter slot.
MugiOkay, that makes sense! And Awashima Soko recommends groups of four or fewer, right? That sounds perfect for actually paying attention to the beer.
Hop BroThat’s part of the charm. It’s open weekdays from 6 p.m. to midnight, food last order at 11, drinks at 11:30, and it really feels like an easy everyday beer pub.
MugiThen that settles it. I want to start with Down To Earth and finish with Blackbird Shipping. I want a glass tonight!
Awashima Soko, a beer pub at 4-34-12 Taizawa, Setagaya-ku, Tokyo, shared its July 2 service details. On weekdays, the bar is open from 6:00 p.m. to midnight, with last orders at 11:00 p.m. for food and 11:30 p.m. for drinks. The space is compact, and the venue recommends small groups of four or fewer.
The day's `TODAY'S on Tap` list includes five beers: YOROCCO `Down To Earth (Hoppy Light Lager)`, karuizawaQ `Another Afternoon (Saison w/Oak Chip)`, YOROCCO `Blackbird Shipping (Belgian Porter)`, open air `hopful mind (Hazy IPA)`, and karuizawaQ `遮光 (American IPA)`.
The selection covers a wide range of styles, from a light lager and saison to a Belgian porter, a hazy IPA and an American IPA. That makes the lineup easy to approach whether you want something crisp and sessionable or something with more hop aroma and depth. It is also a useful snapshot of the bar's approach: a straightforward tap list with clear style variety rather than a one-direction showcase.
Awashima Soko feels like a neighborhood beer bar where you can drop in for one glass or stay longer and compare styles at an easy pace. For beer drinkers looking for a low-key place to focus on the glass in front of them, July 2 offers a balanced and practical tap list.
