Mugibaru in Kamata unveils a 10-beer tap list led by Shiga Kogen’s Shinshu Heion
The beer pub Mugibaru in Kamata has shared its latest tap list, led by Shiga Kogen Beer’s Shinshu Heion. The lineup also includes a barrel-aged IPA from Yellow Monkey Brewing, a fruit ale from Hime Beer, and a radler, making it a strong stop for drink-by-drink comparison.
Hop BroOver at Mugibaru in Kamata, the big story is ten fresh taps on the board. The standout is Shiga Kogen Beer's Shinshu Heion, and the whole lineup looks dangerously good.
MugiWait, the Shinshu Heion twist is that it's a fruit IPA? That name sounds so calm, but the beer sounds flashy!
Hop BroThat's the fun part. It's a Bramley apple fruit IPA at 5%, so it drinks light while still carrying real fruit character.
MugiOkay, but my tongue is having a fruit IPA crisis. Is it sweet, bitter, or both wearing a disguise?
Hop BroThink of it as fruitiness plus hop aroma. You get crisp apple first, then the IPA bitterness and aroma slide in right behind it.
MugiThen what about Yellow Monkey Brewing's barrel-aged IPA? The name alone sounds like a boss battle.
Hop BroBarrel Aged Imperial IPA is a 9.5% heavyweight with woody barrel notes and real depth. Basically, beer put on a very serious grown-up jacket.
MugiWhat is that, a grown-up jacket beer? Now I want to meet it immediately! And they also have Hime Beer's Karan Hyuganatsu Fruit Ale, Minoh Beer's Osaru IPA, and Asahi's Jukusen, so the range is huge.
Hop BroExactly, and the next-wave IPA squad already looks stacked: Y.Market Brewing's Hysteric IPA and Mata Ashita IPA, Shiga Kogen's Muga Muchu, North Island Beer's I.P.A, plus Isekadoya's Meyer Lemon Radler on deck.
MugiAnd the food game is serious too! Colorful summer vegetable chilled noodles and even Mizubasho Junmai Ginjo are in the mix, so my stomach is applauding in a separate venue.
Hop BroThat's what makes it feel like a full tasting stop. It centers on IPA, but with lighter options like Jukusen and a radler too, and honestly I want a post-shift pint already.
MugiThen it's settled, start with Shinshu Heion and finish with the Meyer Lemon Radler. Reading about this is no longer enough; I want to drink at Mugibaru right now!
