Hop BroGion's beer pub Bakushu Yumeyomi has a lovely autumn beer moment planned. On October 21, it is open from 5:15 p.m. to 11 p.m. with beer and croquettes.
MugiBeer and croquettes in Gion? That is the ultimate strolling snack. I would absolutely wander right in!
Hop BroThe tap list stays the same, including Sapporo Yebisu on draft from a carefully cleaned beer server. With a classic beer, good condition really shows.
MugiDoes cleaning the server change the flavor that much? Is it like beer getting a makeover?
Hop BroExactly! A well-maintained server helps avoid off aromas and unstable foam, so you can taste Yebisu's rich malt more clearly.
MugiWow, beer has salon days too! But this Shonan Weizenbock sounds powerful already!
Hop BroGood catch. A Weizenbock combines the soft wheat character of a weizen with the fuller body of a bock—a deep German-style beer.
MugiWhat is a bock, exactly? It sounds like a final boss beer!
Hop BroBock is a German beer family known for substantial body and a rounded sweetness. This one also has smooth wheat character, so it is approachable.
MugiThen it must work with croquettes! There is a fluffy potato version, plus sweet potato and bacon this time, right?
Hop BroRight. Sweet potato sweetness, bacon saltiness, and the toasted crust suit both Yebisu's richness and the Weizenbock's strength. That makes for a croquette tasting mission.
MugiThat mission already sounds delicious! Since they welcome solo guests, I want to stop by after exploring Gion for a fresh-fried toast.
Hop BroDone. Yebisu with potato first, then Shonan Weizenbock with sweet potato and bacon—let's enjoy two autumn pints.
MugiI want to go right now! Let's raise a glass in Gion with beer and croquettes!
Autumn beer and croquettes in Gion
Beer Yumeyomi, located on the second floor of a building on Shijo-dori in Kyoto’s Higashiyama Ward, will be open from 5:15 p.m. to 11 p.m. on Wednesday, October 21. According to the pub’s post, the draft lineup remains unchanged, with Sapporo Ebisu served from meticulously cleaned taps.
The other featured beer is a Weizenbock from Shonan, which has been well received by guests who enjoy German-style beer. Its wheat-beer character and fuller bock-like body should make it an appealing alternative to the rich, familiar profile of Ebisu.
The food special is croquettes. Alongside the previously popular potato version, the pub will offer a new combination of sweet potato and bacon. The sweetness of the potato, the savory bacon, and the crisp fried coating should work naturally with both Ebisu and the stronger Weizenbock.
The post also previews future experiments with major domestic beers, including Sapporo Nama, Asahi Super Dry, Sapporo Mugi to Hop, Suntory Kin-Mugi, and Asahi Clear Asahi. Sapporo Kohaku Ebisu is planned for December, while Kirin Lager is scheduled for January or February.
Beer Yumeyomi welcomes solo visitors and does not accept large groups or reservations. For beer lovers exploring Gion, this is a low-key stop for carefully poured beer and a seasonal croquette pairing.
