Hop BroI want to talk about Highbury -The Cave of Beer- in Yokohama today. They tapped Minoh Beer’s Papa-zaru Lager on July 4, and it’s already moving fast.
MugiWhat, already? That speed of popularity is wild. At this rate I’m imagining the keg just sprinting away on its own!
Hop BroAs of the previous day, 75 liters had already been poured, and the CAVE side was down to 25 liters left. If you want it, this is the hurry-up kind of beer.
MugiWow! But what kind of beer is Papa-zaru Lager? When I hear dark lager, it suddenly sounds very serious and advanced!
Hop BroThe style is a dark lager at 5.0% ABV. It’s darker in color, but not heavy, and it’s brewed with just malt and hops, so it stays really drinkable.
MugiWait, what is that! You just dropped malt flavor on me like we’re in beer school now. Do I need a glossary with my pint?
Hop BroPut simply, it has a biscuit-like toasty note, a gentle grain sweetness, and then a clean bitterness that finishes crisp. The aftertaste is fresh, so it makes you want another sip.
MugiThat sounds dangerously easy to drink! And the pub is also doing that HOME vs CAVE challenge, right? So they’re turning beer into a whole game!
Hop BroExactly. If your side finishes 100 liters first and you fill your stamp card, you get a perk: either a shoulder tap from the TAP STAR or an 880-yen food voucher. That playful touch feels very Highbury.
MugiThat settles it. In that calm British-style pub vibe, with Black Label on hand too, right now it’s all about hunting Papa-zaru Lager. Before that 25 liters disappears, I seriously want a glass!
Yokohama beer pub Highbury -The Cave of Beer- announced Minoh Beer’s guest beer Papa Zaru Lager in an Instagram post labeled as a "CAVE Papa Zaru update." The post said the CAVE side had already worked through a large amount of the beer and was down to 25L, suggesting it is moving quickly.
According to Minoh Beer’s official release, Papa Zaru Lager is a dark lager at 5.0% ABV brewed with only malt and hops. The beer is described as offering biscuit-like malt aroma, a gentle grain sweetness, a clean bitterness, and a refreshing finish, making it an easy-drinking lager rather than a heavy one.
Highbury also framed the pour as part of a HOME vs. CAVE in-house competition. The post explains that the first side to finish 100L offers a stamp-card reward: customers who complete the card can choose a shoulder-tapping privilege from a designated TAP STAR, or use it as an 880-yen food voucher. It is a playful detail that fits the pub’s personality.
The hashtags also mention Sapporo Beer’s Black Label, which reinforces the venue’s balance between everyday staples and carefully handled guest taps. In other words, this is a British-style beer pub where the regulars and the limited pours coexist naturally. If you want Papa Zaru Lager, the CAVE side appears to be the place to check soon.
