MugiWait, that name sounds intense! Highbury is a beer pub and they're doing a collab with Baeren too?
Hop BroThey are. Highbury -The Cave of Beer- teamed up with Baeren, and this 5% ABV collab is already on its fifth brew.
MugiFifth time already? That's a regular! But what is #SmokedEX supposed to mean? It sounds like a finishing move!
Hop BroThat's the fun part. With the rauchbier vibe in the tags, it reads like a smoke-kissed lager kind of experience. Basically, beer with a gentle smoky note.
MugiWhoa, now I want snacks too! And the general-sale keg is already sold out? That popularity is absurd!
Hop BroYep. But there's a backup plan: Baeren's autumn bottle club will have bottles, and the label sounds different from the keg version too.
MugiSame beer, different look? My collector brain is activated! And over 200 liters in four days at Free Somen 2026? How much cheering was happening there?!
Hop BroA lot of love, clearly. And Highbury also locked in a stacked keg lineup tied to the subscription: Helles, German Hoppy Pils, and even Dunkel & Sorachi.
MugiHold on, Helles, Dunkel, Sorachi... this is a full katakana overload for beginners! Translate, please!
Hop BroHelles is bright and easy-drinking, Dunkel is toastier and darker, and Sorachi brings distinctive hop character. In other words, it's a tasting-flight paradise. Also, no Rotbier on draft.
MugiSo you can chase LEMENBRAU 2026 and hop across totally different styles at Highbury? That's unfair. I already want a pint right now!
Hop BroExactly. Even with the keg sold out, the story keeps going through the pub's limited drafts and the bottle release. Reading this put me in full lager mode.
Highbury -The Cave of Beer- in Hanasakicho, Yokohama posted an update on its Baeren collaboration beer, "LEMENBRAU (Lemenbrau) 2026." The beer is listed at 5% ABV, and the post says this is the fifth year of the brew.
The general-sale keg allocation has already sold out. Bottles will instead be available through Baeren's "Autumn Distribution" program, where the beer appears as "Smoked EX" with a different label. That gives drinkers a separate way to enjoy the release beyond the tap version.
The post also says the beer moved quickly during "Free Somen 2026," when more than 200 liters were consumed in four days. It adds that Helles, German Hoppy Pils, and Dunkel & Sorachi were secured for Highbury as part of the same program. Rotbier is also mentioned as not being available on cask. The hashtags reference Rauchbier, Baeren, lager, and Löwenbräu, reinforcing the pub's beer-first identity.
