Hop BroBeer Pub Ishii in Sendagi, Tokyo has posted the latest tap list update on Instagram. They even brought in the season’s azalea-festival atmosphere, and you can almost see the mood of the place already.
MugiWait, it was a post tied to the azalea festival!? After cherry blossoms, beer while looking at azaleas is basically a win!
Hop BroAnd the four beers to start are excellent too. Sankt Gallen / Pale Ale, North Island / Cross Breeze, Hitachino Nest / Nest Lager, and North Island / Ginzy make for a really clean tasting lineup.
MugiHang on, when you say pale ale or lager, I suddenly sit up straighter. So what are they actually like?
Hop BroBroadly speaking, pale ale is about balance between aroma and bitterness, lager is the crisp and easy-drinking type, and beers like Cross Breeze and Ginzy let you enjoy more of the hop character. In other words, it's a lineup with a lot of room to play.
MugiI see! And if they even have roast pork, then my stomach is practically getting up from the table for the beer!
Hop BroExactly. I like that, as a beer pub, they make the food-and-glass pairing clear too. With the richness of properly cooked meat, the beer's bitterness and aroma really stand out.
MugiWhat, there's more!? They even listed the beers waiting to be tapped? My excitement is multiplying before I even go!
Hop BroThat's right. Hansharo Beer / Tarozaemon, Hitachino Nest / Green Hops, Kanpai! Brewing / Kagurazaka Kiwi Hazy IPA, and Shiga Kogen Beer / Draft Pale Ale are waiting in the wings. A bar where the taps move gives you a reason to come back next time too.
MugiAnd if there's also a notice for April 13 to 14, 2026, then I have no choice but to work that into my schedule! If I drink in Sendagi, I'll probably be the type who can't stop talking about beer afterward!
Hop BroTheir regular hours are also convenient, with Wed-Sat open until late and Sun starting in the afternoon, so it's perfect for taking your time. Then let's head out for a drink with roast pork in hand.
MugiDeal! First round with Sankt Gallen, and if Shiga Kogen comes after that, it's already perfect. Today I definitely look like someone who's going out for drinks!
