Sakura Taps, a beer pub in Yokohama’s Yoshidamachi area, updated its tap list on Aug. 6. The new pours are Suicad 2 from Cycad Brewing and Understand from Break Edge Beer Works, bringing a fruit-forward summer lineup to the bar.
Hop BroSakura Taps in Yoshidamachi, Yokohama just rolled out an August 6 tap refresh. Two very summery beers got added to the board.
MugiWhat! Two summer beers? Are these the kind that make you want to camp out in front of the tap list?
Hop BroFirst up is Suicad 2 from Cycad Brewing, built on an American wheat base. It uses a little more watermelon puree than last year, but keeps the sweetness in check.
MugiWait, watermelon puree goes into beer now? That sounds like a summer festival stall crashed into a brewhouse!
Hop BroThat is the point. It is aiming for elegant balance, not candy sweetness, so the soft wheat body lets the watermelon come through clean and refreshing.
MugiOkay, but Belma, Styrian Wolf, and Wai-iti sound like wizard spell names. Am I ordering a beer or summoning something?
Hop BroSimple version: those hops bring melon and peach notes, which lift the watermelon instead of stomping all over it.
MugiSupportive background hops, got it! Then what is Understand like?
Hop BroUnderstand from Break Edge Beer Works is rich but easy-drinking, with aromas like grape gummy or gum layered with mango and passion fruit.
MugiGrape gummy, mango, passion fruit? That is an aroma amusement park, and somehow it still drinks light?
MugiAnd with eight taps total, including WC IPA, Yoshidamachi Helles 2026, and porter, you get so many mood options.
Hop BroExactly. At Sakura Taps in Yokohama, Suicad 2 and Understand feel like a must-do side-by-side if you want the full summer mood.
Tap list update
Sakura Taps, the beer pub on the second floor in Yoshidamachi, Yokohama, posted its Aug. 6 tap update with two new beers on the board. The venue pairs craft beer with seasonal food and coffee, and this lineup leans into easy-drinking summer flavors.
The two new pours are Suicad 2 / Cycad Brewing and Understand / Break Edge Beer Works. Suicad 2 is built on an American wheat base and uses a bit more watermelon puree than last year, keeping the watermelon freshness while dialing back sweetness for a more refined balance. It also uses Belma, Styrian Wolf, and Wai-iti, adding melon and stone-fruit notes. Understand delivers a bold but clean profile, with grape-candy aromas and a tropical finish that brings mango and passionfruit to the front.
The full eight-tap lineup also includes WC IPA / Derailleur Brew Works, Yoshida-machi Helles 2026 / Sakura Taps × Numazu Craft, Instant Classic / West Coast Brewing, Ogawa Porter / Mugizakkoku Kobo, Seisetsu Biyori / Shirosuzume, and Low-Head System / Brewccoly.
