Taki in Shibuya taps Isekadoya Beer's 'Yorimichi no Lager' during its 15th anniversary event
At Taki, a beer pub on the third floor of Shibuya Johnson Building in Sakuragaoka, the 15th anniversary event is underway. On August 16, the bar is pouring Isekadoya Beer’s limited 'Yorimichi no Lager' alongside taps from BLUE MAGIC and HIGHBURY × BAEREN.
Hop BroShibuya's taki is still running its 15th anniversary event, and they just tapped ISEKADOYA Brewery's limited "Yorimichi no Lager." That's a strong reason to detour.
MugiWhat! Yorimichi no Lager is such a cute name. It sounds like my feet would start walking there after work on their own!
Hop BroThe style is Japanese-style Rice Lager, with 4.5% ABV and 25 IBU. Rice is used as an adjunct, so it drinks light and goes down easily between bites of food.
MugiWhoa, but rice lager means what exactly? My brain is picturing rice grains doing laps inside a pint glass!
Hop BroBasically it's lightened by rice. The body stays crisp and smooth instead of getting heavy. It's not liquidized steamed rice, so no need to panic.
MugiNo way! Then what was that small Tettnanger addition in the article? That sounds less like beer and more like a secret finishing move!
Hop BroTettnanger is a hop variety, and here it's adding gentle bitterness. It stays restrained, doesn't overpower the food, and fits the whole easygoing "yorimichi" vibe perfectly.
MugiI love that. And the tap list has BLUE MAGIC on deck too, plus HIGHBURY x BAEREN's "LEMENBRAU," right? That's not a casual detour, that's a full mission.
Hop BroExactly. It's on the third floor of Johnson Building in Sakuragaokacho, and today it's open from 4 PM to midnight. Quiet location, lively anniversary energy, and a clean three-beer crawl sounds ideal.
MugiThat settles it. I go in for one beer between bites, and five minutes later I'm probably trying all three taps. Hop Bro, I seriously want a glass right now!
Taki, a beer pub on the third floor of Shibuya Johnson Building, is currently celebrating its 15th anniversary. In the Instagram post, the bar says it is open on Sunday, August 16 from 4:00 p.m. to midnight, with last orders at 11:00 p.m. for food and 11:30 p.m. for drinks.
The featured beer is "Yorimichi no Lager" from Isekadoya Beer in Mie. It is a Japanese-style Rice Lager with 4.5% ABV and 25 IBU. Rice is used as a supplementary ingredient, giving the beer a light, clean body, while a small addition of Tettnang hops keeps the bitterness soft and food-friendly.
The tap list also includes BLUE MAGIC's "Ano Natsu no Expe", HIGHBURY × BAEREN's "LEMENBRAU", and Isekadoya Beer's "Yorimichi no Lager". With its relaxed third-floor setting in Sakuragaoka, Taki looks like a good place to settle in for a few pints and follow the anniversary flow at an easy pace.
