Craft Beer Scissors Akihabara releases its April 25 tap list, featuring Yatsugatake Touchdown and Shiga Kogen Beer
Craft Beer Scissors Akihabara has released its tap list for April 25. Centered on Yatsugatake Touchdown, the lineup also includes new arrivals from Shiroyama Brewery, Good Hops, and Shiga Kogen Beer, offering a wide range of pours at this small beer pub in Akihabara.
Hop BroCraft Beer Scissors Akihabara has put out its April 25 tap lineup. Today, it’s Yatsugatake Touchdown at the core, and this little beer pub near Akihabara Station is coming at it seriously.
MugiWait, there are that many?! It feels like a Yatsugatake Touchdown festival. Just seeing pilsner, dunkel, and weizen all at once is enough to make my head spin!
Hop BroExactly. What’s interesting is that they’ve got everything from lager to IPA. Pilsner brings crispness, dunkel gives you malty richness, and weizen has that soft wheat character, so the map of flavors opens up all at once.
MugiBut seriously, what is Rock Dry Hop supposed to mean?! Are you drinking a rock!? Or is it a heavy metal beer!?
Hop BroYou don’t drink rocks, of course. This is a weizen layered with hop aroma, so it’s easiest to think of it as a fragrant curveball. And since it even has a ver.2, the brewery must enjoy experimenting.
MugiThat’s amazing! And they even have two collaborations. Kyoto Brewing’s Wandabako, plus 102×69~Roggen Roll~ with Serverland Akasaka-Mitsuke too - the names are already full of energy!
Hop BroOn top of that, there’s Shiroyama Brewery’s Brown Sugar Stout, so the sweet-roasty contrast really works. And with Good Hops’ MURAKAMI SEVEN IPA and Lager, both hop fans and malt fans will be happy.
MugiWhat, they even brought in four new Shiga Kogen Beer releases!? King of Gold, Sono Juu, ENGI!?, House Lager 2.01 - I’d just stand there frozen in front of the shelf...
Hop BroAnd since the shop is in Taito 1-chome, Taito Ward, the best part is that you can try small amounts at a time. You can choose while looking at the display case, and you can also take beer home in a growler or plastic cup, so it’s easy to use after work or on the weekend.
MugiWhoa, it’s a tasting paradise! Start with a lager, get soft and fluffy with a weizen, then finish with a stout, and I might never make it home...
