Btaps Toranomon Hills announced new taps from Finback, Nara Brewing, and Minoh Beer. In addition, from April 30 through May 15, the bar will offer commemorative beers, all-you-can-drink access to 13 taps, and limited-time food as part of a special program celebrating its second anniversary.
Hop BroBtaps at Toranomon Hills has three new beers tapped. Finback's No One Else Can Take Your Place, Nara Brewing's LIGHTHOUSE, and Minoh Beer’s Spring Lager are all on deck, so things are pretty hot right now.
MugiWhoa, they sound strong from the names alone! No One Else Can Take Your Place already feels like a seat-grab battle. What kind of beer is it?
Hop BroIt's Finback's West Coast IPA, brewed with Citra, Simcoe, Centennial, and Cashmere. It drinks light, brings in fruity hop character, and finishes clean and sharp.
MugiA bunch of hop names just came flying at me! What's different about them? Does that really change the taste?
Hop BroIn short, they're like a blueprint for aroma and bitterness. They especially bring out citrus and tropical notes, giving it that sharp West Coast IPA character.
MugiI get it! Then Nara Brewing's LIGHTHOUSE is interesting too. A gold-medal Micro Porter sounds pretty amazing, doesn't it?
Hop BroExactly. It won gold in the Session Beer category at WORLD BEER CUP 2026, and it's a roasty, flavorful beer. It has cacao and coffee-like notes, and what's fun is how easy it goes down despite the dark appearance.
MugiWait, a porter that's easy to drink? That's a cool contrast! And there's also Minoh Beer’s Spring Lager, right?
Hop BroThat's right. Spring Lager is a German-style Pilsner built with German malt and hops, and it has a nice balance of crispness and depth.
Hop BroOn top of that, from April 30 to May 15 there's the 2nd anniversary event, with Gangi Brewing x Btaps' OBLAB too, plus 13-Tap All-You-Can-Drink for 5,500 yen. Add in the appetizer plate and fried assortment, and you can go hard from lunch through the evening.
MugiWhat is this, a festival that makes you want to drink? If it's easy to get to from the station too, that's definitely the kind of place where you end up bar-hopping even if you planned to have just one.
At the beer pub Btaps Toranomon Hills, located on B1F of the Toranomon Hills Business Tower, three new guest beers have been tapped. The post introduces Finback's No One Else Can Take Your Place from the U.S., Nara Brewing's LIGHTHOUSE, and Minoh Beer’s Spring Lager.
No One Else Can Take Your Place is a West Coast IPA made with Citra, Simcoe, Centennial, and Cashmere. It is described as a beer with a light mouthfeel layered with fruity hop character, finishing crisp and clean. LIGHTHOUSE is a Micro Porter that won gold in the Session Beer category at WORLD BEER CUP 2026, and its hallmark is a roasty aroma reminiscent of cacao and coffee. Spring Lager is a German-style Pilsner brewed with German malt and all-German hops, presented as a beer that emphasizes crispness and body.
Btaps Toranomon Hills is also celebrating its second anniversary and will hold a commemorative campaign from April 30 to May 15. The anniversary beer OBLAB, a West Coast Pale Ale by Gangi Brewing x Btaps, will be served at 950 yen for a half and 1,350 yen for a pint. In addition, there will be 13-Tap All-You-Can-Drink for 5,500 yen (2 hours, last order at 90 minutes, food not included), along with limited food items such as an appetizer plate and fried assortment.
The shop is easy to access from Toranomon Hills Station and Toranomon Station, and its appeal lies in being able to enjoy 13 taps that change day by day from lunch through the evening. With a casual, easy-to-enter interior and a lineup that also includes grilled dishes, it works well for anything from a quick one-beer stop to a full night of drinking.
