Irish Pub TULLAMORE in Tokyo pours Guinness, Shiga Kogen IPA and guest beers on June 27
Irish Pub TULLAMORE in Tomigaya, Tokyo, published its tap list for Saturday, June 27. The lineup featured Guinness, Shiga Kogen Beer IPA, and Yebisu, plus Ikari Jyouzou Irish Red on nitro and Kyoto Brewing’s Irotoridori NZ IPA Edition.
Hop BroTomigaya’s Irish pub Tullamore dropped its June 27 tap list, and these five pours are seriously strong. Guinness, Shiga Kogen Beer IPA, and Yebisu are joined by two craft wild cards.
MugiWait, the three core staples already sound comforting, and then they add two more? That’s a dangerously cute lineup!
Hop BroThe backbone is Guinness as a stout, Shiga Kogen Beer IPA for hop punch, and Yebisu for balance, so it has that proper pub comfort to start from.
MugiBut Ikari Brewery’s Irish Red - Nitro -... what even is that? It sounds like a red-haired knight made of foam!
Hop BroNitro means it’s poured with nitrogen. That softens the fizz and gives it a creamy smooth mouthfeel, so the malty side of the red ale comes through cleanly.
MugiWhat is that! Poured with nitrogen sounds like a spa treatment for beer. So it’s fluffy and silky?
Hop BroExactly, and then Kyoto Brewing adds 'Irotoridori NZ IPA Edition.' The fun part is the bright NZ hop aroma, with citrusy and tropical notes in play.
MugiOh wow! NZ is New Zealand, right? But when you say hop definition, it suddenly sounds like an art class and now I’m hungry!
Hop BroBy definition I mean the aroma and bitterness show up clearly instead of vaguely sweet. It has clearly drawn flavors, so comparing Guinness to an NZ IPA becomes half the fun.
Hop BroFrom 3 p.m. to 11 p.m., in that calm Tomigaya pub atmosphere, having such a wide tasting range is a real sign of a good beer spot.
MugiI’m sold! Start with Guinness, then go to the nitro red, then finish on the NZ IPA... my throat reacted before my brain did.
Hop BroThat order makes sense. If we sneak in the Shiga Kogen Beer IPA too, tonight’s first stop pretty much has to be Tullamore.
On Saturday, June 27, Irish Pub TULLAMORE announced its draft beer lineup for service from 3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. The pub sits on the first floor of the Yoyogi Park Building in Tomigaya, and this day’s selection showed a clear balance between familiar pub staples and Japanese craft beer.
Draft lineup
- Guinness
- Shiga Kogen Beer IPA
- Yebisu
- Ikari Jyouzou Irish Red - Nitro -
- Kyoto Brewing Irotoridori NZ IPA Edition
The core of the list is easy to read: Guinness for stout drinkers, Shiga Kogen Beer IPA for hop-driven balance, and Yebisu as a classic anchor. Adding Ikari Jyouzou’s Irish Red on nitro gives the lineup a smoother, more textured red-ale option, while Kyoto Brewing’s Irotoridori NZ IPA Edition brings in the bright aromatics of New Zealand hops.
TULLAMORE works as a straightforward Irish pub, but the tap list also makes room for rotating Japanese craft beers with distinct personalities. On June 27, that meant a lineup where classic pub drinking and modern craft beer sat comfortably side by side.
