Umegaoka's Izakaya Beer Yoshioka Offers 4 Beers in March 13 Tap Update
The beer pub Izakaya Beer Yoshioka (Italian Bar Yoshioka) in Umegaoka has released its business information for March 13, 2026. Now On Tap features four beers, with a broad lineup ranging from pilsner to WC IPA and hazy IPA. It also announces updates to the drink and food menus.
Hop BroThe tap update with 4 beers at Umagaoka's Izakaya Beer Yoshioka is really interesting. Pilsner, Hon Nama from Repubrew, CHAKO from Passific Brewing, and Ura Tiger Viva Haze from Brew Classic make for a lineup that flows nicely from the front to the back half of the tasting.
MugiWhoa, so it's four beers with a wide range? It already sounds like everything from light to rich is coming at once, and now I'm busy just thinking about drinking it!
Hop BroExactly. And Hon Nama is Italian Pils, CHAKO is a WC IPA, and Ura Tiger Viva Haze is a Hazy IPA, so it's great that the styles are clearly defined. Start with Minoh Beer's Pilsner to reset your palate, then gradually ramp up the hop aroma.
MugiWhat's a WC IPA? It sounds like a spell, and even if you say it's a hop-forward IPA, I'm worried whether my tongue can keep up!
Hop BroWC stands for West Coast, and it refers to an IPA that's clear and dry, with both bitterness and aroma coming through sharply. By contrast, a Hazy IPA has haze and puts a juicy, soft aroma forward, so even though they're both IPAs, their personalities are completely different.
MugiOhhh! Then it's true that it's easy to compare them. Starting crisp with Pilsner and ending with a big hazy finish sounds pretty fun!
Hop BroAnd the fact that it's a beer pub just 3 minutes from the station at Umagaoka South Exit is a big plus. On the way home from work, you can drop in, start with a light lager-style beer, then move into IPA territory on your second drink. That kind of flow fits perfectly.
MugiWhat is that, it's completely a beer flow chart! And hearing that they've added cocktails and wine too makes it easier to bring friends along.
Hop BroExactly. They've expanded the drink options to include gin, vodka, and Campari-based drinks, and they've also stepped up the food side with Hokkaido potato fries, more pasta, and stronger topping options, so it's not just about drinking. The meal satisfaction is high too.
MugiWhoa, they even have homemade pizza planned!? I already want to start with Pilsner today, finish with a hazy, snack on potatoes, and drink the whole night away!
