Beer Pub Nekotoazarashi to Publish Tap List on March 19; Two New Kegs Also Opened
Beer Pub Nekotoazarashi in Mitaka has published its tap list for Thursday, March 19, from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. A Shiga Kogen pale ale and a Beer Hearn milk stout have just been put on tap. With a lineup ranging from dark lager to imperial IPA and barley wine, it's exactly the kind of selection for an evening spent looking for the perfect spring pint.
Hop BroMitaka’s Beer Pub Nekotoazarashi has a pretty bold tap list for Thursday, March 19. Two new kegs are on, and the lineup is just right for a spring evening.
MugiWhat, two new kegs on tap too!? That alone is enough to get me excited. What beers came in?
Hop BroThe highlights are Shiga Kogen’s Pale Ale and Beer Hearn’s Enmusubi Bakushu Stout. The nice part is being able to enjoy two completely different personalities at once: a crisp, easy-drinking beer and something with roasted depth.
MugiRoasted depth? So, like, coffee-like flavor? That kind of fragrant beer is a little mysterious!
Hop BroExactly. You get the aroma of roasted malt. Stouts especially tend to go that way, and this one is a milk stout, so you can also expect a soft sweetness.
MugiI see, so with some sweetness it should be easy to drink! And it’s only three minutes on foot from the south exit of Mitaka Station too, which is basically the distance you get pulled in after work!
Hop BroAnd the lineup is broad, which is great. It ranges from dark lager to imperial IPA and barley wine, so it’s a real style journey.
MugiWhat is that, a theme park for tasting flights!? But is barley wine actually wine? Or is it beer?
Hop BroThe name sounds wine-like, but it’s definitely beer. Its appeal is the rich malt flavor and higher alcohol content, so it’s the kind you sip slowly. And there are also Wheat Wine and Weizen styles, so the malt character is really varied.
MugiOhhh, so it feels more like a journey of malt than anything else. A weizen with mikan sounds kind of interesting too!
Hop BroThat’s what makes it fun. There’s playfulness too, with beers like Wakamatsu Mikan Weizen and Hoppy Weizen, and even the reserve keg Buzz Honey. Tonight is going to be a night where it’s genuinely hard to choose.
MugiI’ve decided. I’m joining you for an evening in search of the perfect spring pint! At Nekotoazarashi, I’ll have one drink... and then absolutely end up having two!
Hop BroExactly, that’s the way. It works for a pint after work or for a settled tasting session, so let’s have a toast together tonight.
Beer Pub Nekotoazarashi, a small, counter-centered beer pub three minutes on foot from the south exit of Mitaka Station, is a place to take your time enjoying craft beer and food pairings. It will be open on Thursday, March 19, from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., and the day’s tap list has been published.
The highlights of the day are the two new kegs now on tap. Shiga Kogen’s "Pale Ale" and Beer Hearn’s "Enmusubi Bakushu Stout" (Milk Stout) have been added, broadening the choices from a crisp, easy-drinking beer to one with roasted character.
The published lineup is as follows.
- Yokohama Bay Brewing "Bay Dark" (Dark Lager)
- Shiga Kogen "Pale Ale" (Pale Ale) New
- Daisen G Beer "Wheat Wine 2023" (Wheat Wine)
- T.Y. Harbor "Extreme Chidoriashi" (Barley Wine)
- Mojiko "Wakamatsu Mikan Weizen" (Weizen with Mikan)
- Minoh Beer "Hoppy Weizen" (Hoppy Weizen)

In addition, reserve kegs of CYCAD "Buzz Honey" and Bay Brewing "Weekend Journey" have also been announced, so there is some fun in watching the rotation as well. A lineup that lets you travel across lager, weizen, golden ale, stout, IPA, and barley wine in one night is a great match for anyone who likes to compare styles side by side. It is a practical tap list that suits both a pint after work and a more settled, unhurried tasting session, which is very much this shop’s style.
