Craftbeer 2mugi in Akihabara taps six drafts, adds Citrus Mayhem IPA
Craftbeer 2mugi, a beer pub in Kanda-Izumicho, Akihabara, posted a six-beer draft lineup. The list includes a new tap from Shiokaze BrewLab and an 8th-anniversary beer from Nara Brewing Co., with opening hours set from 15:00 to 23:00.
Hop BroCraftbeer 2むぎ in Akihabara just rolled out six fresh taps at once, and the lineup is seriously stacked.
MugiWhat! A six-beer tasting run sounds like the exact way a beginner like me gets happily lost.
Hop BroThe headliner is Shiokaze BrewLab's Citrus Mayhem IPA, built around summery citrus aroma and a crisp, refreshing bitterness.
MugiWhoa! But when you say citrus aroma, my brain starts asking if this is beer or fruit salad.
Hop BroThat is the trick. It smells bright and fruity, but it still drinks like beer. And IPA is a hop-forward beer style that leans into aroma and bitterness.
MugiOkay, so it's not just bitter, it's the kind of beer where the aroma does the drama!
Hop BroExactly. And Nara Brewing Co.'s CAMOUFLAGE is an 8th anniversary Hazy IPA, so you get that soft, juicy, cloudy side too.
MugiHold on, what even is hazy? Is the beer just being shy and refusing eye contact?
Hop BroNot shy, just intentionally cloudy and juicy. Then you add FUEGO Mexican Lager, Summer Cloud Hefeweizen, plus Abu Kiwi Saison and Hagi Natsumikan Saison, and suddenly the whole tap list has range.
MugiThat is dangerously convincing. With styles all over the map, it still sounds beginner-friendly, and now I want to taste them in order and pretend I'm doing serious research.
Hop BroYou basically are. They have kakuuchi-style bar drinking, can and bottle takeout, and they're open from 3 p.m. to 11 p.m. Plus the homemade meat sauce fresh pasta sounds like the perfect intermission.
MugiThen it's settled. Citrus Mayhem IPA first, CAMOUFLAGE next, and my thirst is officially tapped right now!
Craftbeer 2mugi, a beer pub in Kanda-Izumicho, Akihabara, shared its latest tap list with six draft beers on offer. The shop says it is open from 15:00 to 23:00 and supports both in-house drinking and can/bottle takeout.
The headline beer is `Citrus Mayhem IPA` from `Shiokaze BrewLab`, newly tapped and introduced as a beer with bright citrus aroma and a crisp bitterness. The post also highlights `CAMOUFLAGE / Hazy IPA` from `Nara Brewing Co.` as an 8th-anniversary beer, plus `FUEGO / Mexican Lager` from `falo brewing`.
The full lineup is:
- `CAMOUFLAGE / Hazy IPA` - `Nara Brewing Co.`
- `FUEGO / Mexican Lager` - `falo brewing`

- `Summer Cloud / Hefeweizen` - `Yorocco Beer`

- `Hagi Natsumikan Saison` - `Takatsugawa River Beer`
With a Hazy IPA, Mexican Lager, Hefeweizen, and two saisons in the mix, the taps cover a wide range of styles. That makes the bar suitable for side-by-side tasting, especially for drinkers who want to compare hop character, wheat-driven softness, and saison-like freshness in one stop.
On the food side, the post recommends `Homemade Meat Sauce (Fresh Pasta)`, made with thick, chewy fresh noodles. It is presented as a natural pairing with beer, and the shop also notes that it welcomes first-time craft beer drinkers. In short, it is a straightforward Akihabara stop for beer and a casual meal, with enough variety on tap to keep the visit interesting.
