In today’s lineup, Minamiaizu Mountain Brewing takes up a large share. Montgrain, Heier, Minamiaizu PA, Minamiaizu SAISON, Foo Foo, Village, Oury, Snow Surf, Aizu Yamasio Suppe, and Steep span a wide range from French saison styles to IPA, sour, and stout. Added to that are CRAFTROCK BREWING’s Drink All Day, Ocean Avenue, Alternative IPA, and Joy Hoppocities, along with CYCAD BREWING’s Kanda Tonic as a special standout pour.

Other labels worth noting for hop lovers include Twin Peaks Mountain Brewing’s Doctor’s Lucky Weizen, VECTOR BREWING’s Onedari White Sox, BREWDOG’s Punk IPA, Shonan Beer IPA, Shiga Kogen Beer IPA, SCHMATZ IPA, and Libushi Bashamichi’s She is hazy enough for you.
