Tsumugi in Minamikashiwa adds Komainu Brewery’s Kashiwa Reysol-licensed hazy IPA
Tsumugi, a beer pub in Minamikashiwa, has added Komainu Brewery’s “Marukashi Beer,” an official Kashiwa Reysol licensed release. The hazy IPA is built to be fruity, approachable, and 6.5% ABV.
Hop BroThere's a fresh arrival in Minami-Kashiwa: Marukashi Beer is in. It's such a Kashiwa-local story that I can't ignore it.
MugiWhat, that name is adorable! So where does Marukashi Beer actually come from?
Hop BroIt's brewed by Komainu Brewery in Kashiwa. And it's an official licensed beer featuring Rei-kun from Kashiwa Reysol, so the local pride is doing laps around the glass.
MugiNo way, club-approved beer is wild! So what kind of Hazy IPA are we talking about?
Hop BroPicture a yellow-inspired brew with layered hops and big fruity aromas up front. It doesn't hit you with harsh IPA bitterness; it goes for soft texture and bright hop character.
MugiHold on, what even makes a Hazy IPA hazy? Because right now the foggiest thing here is my brain!
Hop BroFair question. Think of it as a cloudy-style IPA. It looks a little misty, and instead of sharp bitterness, you get juicy-feeling aroma and a softer mouthfeel.
MugiOkay, that helps. When I hear IPA I brace for impact, but gentle bitterness sounds way friendlier for newer beer drinkers.
Hop BroExactly. And at 6.5% ABV, it still has some real weight, so it works as a first pint or alongside food without feeling thin.
MugiSo at a counter in Minami-Kashiwa, I can drink a beer where local club meets craft? That's honestly unfairly tempting.
Hop BroThat's why I want to try it soon and check that aroma and softness for myself. Easy-drinking but still distinctive is a strong move.
MugiThen it's settled. Tonight I'm fully in a cheers with Marukashi mood. Let's show up hungry and start with that first glass.
A local hazy IPA lands in Minamikashiwa
2階のクラフトビール屋つむぎ, a beer pub near Minami-Kashiwa Station, has announced a new arrival: `Marukashi Beer` from Komainu Brewery (Kashiwa). Tsumugi is also a Kashiwa Reysol Associates partner shop, so this release connects the local soccer club and the local craft beer scene in a natural way.
The beer is an official licensed product featuring Reysol’s Ray-kun character. According to the post, it is a hazy IPA inspired by yellow tones, with additional hops added to create a fruity finish. The spec is straightforward: 6.5% ABV and Hazy IPA. The brewery describes it as having restrained sweetness and bitterness, making it approachable even for people who do not usually drink beer.
That profile matters. Rather than pushing bitterness to the front, `Marukashi Beer` seems designed to highlight hop aroma, soft texture, and fruit-forward drinkability. In a beer pub setting, that makes it an easy first pint and a good companion to food.
For craft beer fans in Chiba, this is the kind of local release worth paying attention to: a Kashiwa beer, tied to Kashiwa Reysol, now available at a neighborhood beer pub in Minamikashiwa. It is a neat example of how regional breweries and local venues can build a scene around one glass at a time.
Information may be inaccurate. Please refer to the venue’s official channels for the latest details.
