Brewmin' Sogawa taps Tazawako Beer 'Dark Lager' and unveils eight taps
The beer pub 'Brewmin' Sogawa' in Toyama City's Sogawa district unveiled its latest tap list on March 12 and announced the tapping of Tazawako Beer's 'Dark Lager.' That same day, the bar was serving eight beers in total, centered on BREWMIN' house-brewed offerings and including Inkhorn Brewing.
Hop BroHere's the beer update from Sogawa: Brewmin' Sogawa's latest taps were updated on March 12, and Tazawako Beer's 'Dark Lager' has been newly tapped!
MugiWait, dark beer sounds heavy, but is a new Dark Lager tap really that noteworthy?
Hop BroThat's the interesting part. This one is described as combining the depth of a dark beer with easy drinkability: fine foam, a balance of richness and bitterness, and a clean, crisp finish.
MugiWhat? You just casually said 'lager,' but what exactly is a lager?
Hop BroSimply put, it's a style fermented slowly at low temperatures, so it's more likely to have a crisp, clean aftertaste. The reason a dark beer can still go down smoothly is because of that.
MugiOh wow! So one glass won't be enough... What else is on there? I saw eight taps in total!
Hop BroBREWMIN' house-brew lineup is hefty, and with 'Hazy Appare-tion' and 'Ginshari Lager' plus Inkhorn Brewing's Mofua 2026, the range of styles is really wide.
MugiThe names are wild! Just reading the menu is fun, with things like 'Nektaron de Gozaru' and 'Endless Desu.'
Hop BroIt's a strong setup for both after-work drinks and tasting flights, and since the lineup changes, checking today's social media post before you go is a must. My throat is already fully in beer mode.
MugiDeal! Tonight we're in Sogawa, and first up is a full eight-tap tasting plan starting with Tazawako Beer's Dark Lager!
In an Instagram post from the beer pub Brewmin' Sogawa at 3-4-1 Sogawa, Toyama City, Toyama Prefecture (March 12 at 12:09), the day's tap information was updated. The new tap is Tazawako Beer's 'Dark Lager.' The post describes it as having 'fine, creamy foam,' 'a balance of richness and bitterness,' and 'a crisp, clean finish,' highlighting its ability to deliver the depth of a dark beer while remaining easy to drink.
The eight taps announced in the same post are below.
- BREWMIN'「もんすたぁズP」
- BREWMIN'「ネクタロンでござる」
- Inkhorn Brewing「Mofua 2026」
- BREWMIN'「ヘイジーあっぱれーしょん」
- BREWMIN'「エンドレスです。」
- 田沢湖ビール「Dark Lager」
- BREWMIN'「カタオモイかしら？mix fruits ver」
- BREWMIN'「銀シャリラガー」
Looking at the lineup, it spans hazy beers, mixed-fruit styles, lagers, and dark lager, making it easy to compare different styles at a single stop. While BREWMIN' labels make up the bulk of the list, Inkhorn Brewing and Tazawako Beer are also included, making this a practical tap update for anyone wanting to enjoy a wide range of craft beer locally.
For a spot in the city center Sogawa area that works just as well for a post-work pint as it does for a tasting flight, the shop's strength is its flexibility. Because the available beers change, it is best to check the day's information on the store's social media or official site before visiting.
