u.b.p_brewery taproom hosts 2nd Cantabile pop-up, with 7 draft beers and exclusive pizza
At u.b.p_brewery taproom in Urawa Ward, Saitama City, the second "Cantabile pop-up shop" will be held on Sunday, May 24, 2026. In addition to seven draft beers, the day will feature quiches and deli items from the prepared-foods shop Cantabile, plus an in-house-only Siciliana pizza.
Hop BroToday I'm talking about the second Cantabile pop-up at u.b.p_brewery taproom in Urawa. With seven draft beers and the food lineup really bringing it, it's a pretty strong day to drink.
MugiWhoa, seven draft beers? If that many are lined up, I'll melt before I even decide what to drink first!
Hop BroStarting with something easy to drink like `Kickoff Pils` or `LaLa Kolsch` is probably the move. And it's strong that they also have beers like `OWN GOAL IPA` and `La bomba` that really let the hops come through.
MugiWhat? Pilsner and Kölsch are hard enough just from the names! What do they taste like?
Hop BroRoughly speaking, pilsners are crisp, and Kölsch is the soft, easy-drinking type. When IPA comes in, the hop presence gets much stronger, so tasting them side by side really shows how different their personalities are.
MugiOhh! So you can choose based on your mood! And the can selection is solid too, which makes me want to take some home!
Hop BroExactly. The cans also include `Hazy Celebration` and `YUZU RISING`, so people who like aromatic beers should find something to like. Because it's a brewpub attached to the brewery, the sense of freshness is another plus.
MugiAnd the food is amazing too! Four kinds of quiche and deli items? That's serious deli game! It's not just beer!
Hop BroThe in-house-exclusive `Siciliana pizza` for 1,000 yen is hard to miss too. With sausage platters and even pork liver and cheek pâté, the food base to support the draft beers is way too strong.
MugiAnd there's no cover charge or service charge, plus water is self-serve, so it's super easy to drop in on a whim! This is the kind of place where you'd want to just hang out all afternoon.
Hop BroSince it's open from 13:00 to 19:00 on Sunday, May 24, 2026, it's perfect for weekend daytime drinking. A day in Urawa that's a perfect match for freshly made beer - this is definitely not just one pint.
MugiYeah, decided! I'm going for the pizza and quiche! I want to do a tasting of the seven draft beers too, and today is absolutely a day that makes you want to drink!
Hop BroNice, let's go with that. Whether you finish with `La bomba` or gently end with `LaLa Kolsch`, it's fun to agonize over the last pint too.
