Taki in Shibuya taps DD4D x Scott Murphy's limited IPA for its 15th anniversary
Beer pub taki in Shibuya's Sakura-gaoka area is running its 15th anniversary event. The August 27 post highlights the limited collab `Time After Thyme` from DD4D BREWING x Scott Murphy, alongside `Peach Tea Sour` from T.Y.Harbor Brewery and `Summer Lager` from Minoh Beer.
Hop BroShibuya's taki is buzzing with a 15th anniversary event right now. New kegs went on from 5:00 to midnight today, and the lineup is strong.
MugiWait, 15 years already? That's a serious milestone. And they dropped a fresh tap list in Shibuya today?
Hop BroThe headliner is Time After Thyme. It's a limited collab from DD4D BREWING and Scott Murphy, brewed as a Citrus and Spice IPA.
MugiWhat is that even supposed to taste like? Citrus and Spice IPA sounds fancy enough to need subtitles.
Hop BroBasically, it's a citrus-spice IPA with kawachi bankan and lemon-like freshness, then lime and grapefruit notes from Zumo, Columbus, and Centennial. It sits at 7.0% ABV and 25 IBU, but still drinks pretty clean.
MugiWhoa, and it still has hints of malt and agave sweetness? That's a lot in one glass. My taste buds are going to need a briefing.
Hop BroThat's the fun part. The same tap list also has T.Y.Harbor Brewery's Peach Tea Sour and Minoh Beer's Summer Lager.
MugiHold on, sour, collab IPA, and lager? That's a three-style tasting run. My mood could change with every pour.
Hop BroExactly. Since taki is a spot for sake and craft beer on the third floor of Johnson Building in Shibuya, it can pull off bold taps while keeping that easygoing atmosphere.
MugiSo if you're stuck choosing a first drink in Shibuya, taki is the move. Starting with the peachy sour or diving straight into the limited IPA both sound right.
Hop BroI'd go Time After Thyme first for the aroma, reset with the sour, then finish on the lager. That's the perfect relay order.
MugiThat plan wins. I seriously want to sprint to Shibuya and throw down that first pint right now.
Taki marks 15 years with a limited collaboration IPA
Beer pub `taki` in Shibuya's Sakura-gaoka neighborhood is holding its 15th-anniversary event. In the August 27 post, the bar says a new keg has been tapped for today's 5:00 p.m. to midnight service.
The main beer is `Time After Thyme`, a limited release from `DD4D BREWING × Scott Murphy`. It is a `Citrus and Spice IPA` with 7.0% ABV and 25 IBU.

The tap list for the day also includes `Peach Tea Sour` from `T.Y.Harbor Brewery` and `Summer Lager` from `Minoh Beer`. That gives guests three different directions to choose from: sour, collaboration IPA, and lager.
Located on the 3rd floor of the Johnson Building in Shibuya, `taki` is a beer pub with a sake-and-craft-beer focus. The anniversary lineup fits the venue well, with guest beers that feel thoughtful rather than flashy. For anyone looking for a serious beer stop in Shibuya, this is one to note.
