Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke opens two guest beers on June 28
Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke announced a 5:00 p.m. opening on June 28 and introduced two guest beers for the day: Himitsu Beer’s Racco ni Hiki and CRAFT BANK’s BANK IPA. The basement beer pub in Akasaka keeps the focus on Japanese craft beer.
Hop BroAkasaka-Mitsuke’s basement is the place tonight: two guest beers tap at 5 PM on June 28 at Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke.
MugiWait, a basement beer event? Two guest beers already sounds dangerous for my self-control.
Hop BroOne is Himitsu Beer’s Rakko ni Hiki from Mie, a DDH IPA. The other is CRAFT BANK’s BANK IPA from Kyoto, a West Coast IPA.
MugiHold on, DDH IPA is way too many letters. Is that a beer style or a robot password?
Hop BroDDH means Double Dry Hop, where brewers add hops later to boost the aroma. So it’s more about a thick hop bouquet than just brute bitterness.
MugiOhh, so Rakko ni Hiki is basically aroma turned up. Cute name, serious business.
Hop BroExactly. Meanwhile, CRAFT BANK’s BANK IPA brings the clean West Coast bite with a sharper, more defined bitterness at 5.5% ABV.
MugiSo one wraps you in hop perfume, and the other snaps back with bitterness? That flight sells itself.
Hop BroAnd the venue matters too. Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke has 31 taps of Japanese craft, beer-sommelier staff, and food that should pair beautifully in that calm underground space.
MugiThat settles it, I’m thirsty now. I want an Akasaka beer run and I want to drink Rakko ni Hiki and BANK IPA back to back.
Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke sits in the basement of the Tsukisekai Building in Akasaka, Tokyo, and focuses on Japanese craft beer. With a large tap lineup and staff who can guide drinkers through the selection, it works well for both quick pints and longer tasting sessions. The kitchen also supports the beer-first approach with food built to pair with the pours.
In its Instagram post dated June 28, the shop announced a 5:00 p.m. opening and shared the day’s new guest taps. Two Japanese breweries were featured, both in the IPA family.
- Himitsu Beer, Racco ni Hiki / DDH IPA (5.0% ABV, Mie)
- CRAFT BANK, BANK IPA / West Coast IPA (5.5% ABV, Kyoto)
The contrast is clear: one beer leans into the fuller, juicier side of DDH IPA, while the other brings the sharper bitterness and cleaner finish associated with West Coast IPA. For drinkers tracking guest taps in Tokyo, this is the kind of update that makes the Akasaka-Mitsuke stop worth noting.
