The beer pub NEIGHBOR in Nogata, Nakano Ward, Tokyo announced eight draft beers. Numazu Craft, Atsumi Peninsula Brewing, Miyazaki Hideji Beer, Brasserie Knot, and others are on the lineup, with food ranging from hot dogs to steak.
Hop BroAt the beer pub NEIGHBOR in Nogata, there are 8 draft beers on tap today. It is mostly Japanese breweries, and even looking at the tap list makes your throat thirsty.
MugiWhat, 8 taps?! And with names like Numazu Craft and Atsumi Peninsula Brewing, just reading them makes me feel like I’m traveling!
Hop BroThe lineup is great too. With styles from saison to IPA, and beers like Numazu Craft’s saison, Miyazaki Hideji’s Kuri Kuro, and Brasserie Knot’s Belgian wit, the fun of rotating kegs is in full swing.
MugiWait, what do you mean by the fun of rotating kegs? It sounds like a beer lottery, which is exciting, but which one am I supposed to start with?!
Hop BroThat’s the fun part of NEIGHBOR. It’s good for tasting side by side, so you can start light with a saison, then go sharp with a sour ale, and finish by comparing the hop aroma in a hazy IPA and a West Coast IPA.
MugiOhhh! But that one labeled Hazy IPA w/Spice&Herb sounds like a spell, doesn’t it? It’s unfair that it already sounds delicious just from the name!
Hop BroIf you break it down, it’s simple: w/ is just short for with. So it’s a hazy IPA using spices and herbs, and the soft mouthfeel of the hazy body gets layered with extra aroma, making it one of the more distinctive taps at NEIGHBOR.
MugiI get it! And the fact that the food goes from hot dogs to steak is almost cheating, right? You go in planning to have just one drink, and before you know it you’re serious about dinner too.
Hop BroExactly. They’ve got everything from a classic hot dog to sirloin, white liver mousse, and rare-grilled tuna, so it’s strong as a meal spot too. And apparently they brewed with Bighand Bros. Beer yesterday, so it should be ready in about three weeks. They’ve even given you a reason to keep coming back.
MugiWhat, a place that makes you look forward to three weeks later is amazing! A drink at NEIGHBOR today, then waiting for the Bighand beer next, and now I’m completely in the mood to drink!
Hop BroI know, this is definitely a grab-a-drink-right-now situation. In Nogata, you can stare at the taps, debate between a saison or an IPA, and somehow see yourself ordering one more.
MugiYep, I want to toast at NEIGHBOR today! I feel like I’ll start with the sour ale and end up ordering a hot dog too!

On the food side, the post highlights a classic hot dog, char-grilled lettuce Caesar salad, sirloin steak, white liver mousse, jerk chicken rice, rare-grilled tuna, and peperoncino with squid and karasumi. Since the options run from light bites to hearty meals, it is also a good fit for people who want to enjoy craft beer with dinner.
