Hop BroToday, Awashima Soko's five taps in Daizawa, Setagaya Ward, are interesting. Nara Brewing, YOROCCO, and Kyoto Brewing are all there, with everything from pilsner to stout.
MugiWhoa, it feels like a total traffic jam with just five kinds! But that lineup makes me excited because it seems easy for beginners to compare and taste side by side!
Hop BroFirst up is Nara Brewing's KIP (Hoppy Pilsner), which adds hop aroma to the crispness of a pilsner. It's light, but it still makes its presence known, so it's a great starting point.
MugiWait, a hoppy pilsner? So it's refreshing, but also full of aroma? My brain is struggling to keep up!
Hop BroExactly. In short, it's got that lager-like crispness with the fun of hop aroma layered on top. Then if you move on to Nara Brewing's LOCOMOTION (American IPA), the hop presence comes even more to the front.
MugiWow, that sounds like a hop level-up! The kind with strong aroma definitely feels like it'd make me grin the moment I take a sip!
Hop BroYOROCCO's Swallow's Humming (Golden Ale) is a gentle beer that bridges the gap between them. It's easy to drink, but it still leaves a solid malt character behind.
MugiI see, it sounds like a gentle bridge. Having a beer like that makes things feel calmer than jumping straight into something intense.
Hop BroAnd then Kyoto Brewing's DrinkMe! (Hazy IPA) and YOROCCO's Hometown Stout (Dry Stout) completely change the scenery. The hazy IPA is juicy, and the dry stout has a satisfying roasted character.
MugiThat sounds amazing! If you compare them in order from light to aromatic to rich, it's definitely going to be fun, and I think I'd want to finish with a black beer too!
Tap List for May 30
Awashima Soko, a beer pub in Daizawa, Setagaya Ward, Tokyo, announced its operating hours for Saturday, May 30. On Saturdays, it is open from 3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., with last food orders at 10:00 p.m. and drinks served until 10:30 p.m. In the post, it introduced five craft beers as the day's "TODAY'S on Tap."
The beers on offer were Nara Brewing's "KIP (Hoppy Pilsner)" and "LOCOMOTION (American IPA)", YOROCCO's "Swallow's Humming (Golden Ale)" and "Hometown Stout (Dry Stout)", and Kyoto Brewing's "DrinkMe! (Hazy IPA)." The lineup spans pilsner, golden ale, stout, hazy IPA, and American IPA, making it easy to find something that suits your taste, from a light pint to one with pronounced hop aroma, all the way to a dark beer with roasted character.
Awashima Soko is also a beer pub that recommends visits in small groups because the inside is compact. The post also emphasized its stance on creating a calm drinking environment, noting that groups of four or more may be turned away and that people should refrain from visiting when feeling unwell. For those who want to savor beer at a relaxed pace, this approach is easy to see as part of the shop's character.
The five taps that day were more than just a list of labels; they made the fun of tasting side by side especially clear. "KIP," with its lager-like crispness; "DrinkMe!," whose aromatic presence is worth paying attention to; and "Hometown Stout," where you can pick up malt sweetness and roasted notes, all make it easy for drinkers to follow the differences in flavor. If you're building your lineup from the first glass to the last at Awashima Soko, this looks like a day to enjoy sampling beers of different styles in sequence.
