Kakuuchi Asakura in Kyoto announces five craft beers and a mackerel-can macaroni salad
Kakuuchi Asakura, a beer pub in Kamigyo Ward, Kyoto, posted a five-beer tap list on June 5. The lineup spans breweries in Kyoto, Osaka, Niigata and Nagano, alongside a macaroni salad made with mackerel canned food from Saba-kan, Uchu e Iku, plus a notice for a June 28 event.
Hop BroToday's topic is Kakuuchi Asakura taps. A five-brewery lineup plus mackerel-can macaroni salad is a seriously dangerous combo in the best way.
MugiWhat! Mackerel can mac salad sounds like a sneaky MVP snack! My stomach jumped in before the beer even did!
Hop BroAnd this time it's five breweries on tap: KYOTO NUDE BREWERY's KOMOREZORA - Komorezora - Lager, WOODMILL BREWERY KYOTO's Rose Ale, plus beers from CRAFT BEER BASE, GANGIBREWING, and Shiga Kogen Beer.
MugiWhoa, but Session Hazy IPA sounds like a spell. If I drink it, am I going to start speaking fluent hop wizard?
Hop BroIt's simpler than it sounds. Think low-ABV IPA. GANGIBREWING's EAGY GROVE Session HazyIPA should be easy to drink, but still packed with soft, juicy aroma.
MugiNo way, big aroma, light body? That's beginner-friendly magic. So is WOODMILL BREWERY KYOTO's Rose Ale basically a bouquet you can drink?
Hop BroPretty much, yeah. The Rose Ale aroma should feel elegant rather than perfumey, and Shiga Kogen Beer's from scratch Blonde Ale adds a nice easygoing lane to the lineup too.
MugiAnd then there's Hop Schema059 Anchoby from CRAFT BEER BASE. That name sounds less like a beer and more like a lab experiment with a final exam.
Hop BroI read it as a hop blueprint kind of beer. I'd want to taste it to know for sure, but the full list runs from lager to rose ale to blonde ale, so the comparison flight basically builds itself.
MugiAnd they even plugged the Kome to Mugi Festival on June 28, 2026. Beer and sake fans both get fed here. That's unfairly good.
Hop BroExactly. That kakuuchi freedom is the whole charm of the place. You can bounce between sake and craft beer, grab that mackerel mac salad, and suddenly one round becomes three.
MugiThen it's settled! We're going from light to aromatic, and finishing with the mackerel mac salad. I'm already thirsty just talking about it!
Kakuuchi Asakura, a beer pub in Kyoto's Kamigyo Ward, shared its craft beer tap list in a June 5 post. The shop has the easygoing feel of a kakuuchi-style bar, and while sake is also available, this update focuses on five craft beers from across Japan.
The tap list includes:
- KYOTO NUDE BREWERY, KOMOREZORA-木洩れ空- Lager
- WOODMIL BREWERY KYOTO, Rose Ale
- CRAFT BEER BASE, Hop Schema059 Anchoby
- GANGIBREWING, EAGY GROVE Session HazyIPA
- Shiga Kogen Beer, from scratch Blonde Ale
The lineup brings together breweries from Kyoto, Osaka, Niigata and Nagano, covering a range from lager to rose ale and session hazy IPA. It is the kind of list that makes it easy to picture a relaxed tasting session, moving from a clean first pint to something more aromatic.
The food note is equally beer-friendly: the post also mentions a macaroni salad made with the mackerel canned food from Saba-kan, Uchu e Iku. The shop additionally promoted advance tickets for the Kome to Mugi Festival in Kyoto 2026 on June 28, reinforcing its role as a place where craft beer and sake are both part of the conversation.
