The beer pub PUB Karr, on the second floor of Matsugaecho in the Rokkaku area west of Haramachi-dori in Nakagyo Ward, Kyoto, announced its April 3 taps on Instagram. The post introduced five kegs: Kyoto Brewing's "Ori-On," "Tsubutsumu," and "Shukyu 6-nichi," along with Minoh's "Honey Saison" and Asahi's "Maruefu."

The setup, with three Kyoto Brewing beers lined up together, is one that people wanting to compare a brewery's character side by side won't want to miss. Adding Minoh's "Honey Saison" gives the lineup a craft-leaning edge, while "Maruefu," which seems likely to serve as an easy-drinking anchor, is also very much in keeping with PUB Karr's balance. It is a lineup that lets you fully enjoy craft beer while choosing a pint to suit your mood.

The post text also says the bar is open from 6 p.m. today, and that because things worked out for the next day, it will open at 4 p.m. PUB Karr is also known as a record bar, and it seems to offer a quiet atmosphere where you can enjoy music and beer in the middle of Kyoto. Rather than a flashy event announcement, the way it carefully shares the tap lineup as part of its everyday business is also impressive.
