Shiga Kogen Beer and Minoh Beer Tapped at Craft Beer Market Atré Kichijoji
Craft Beer Market Atré Kichijoji has tapped Shiga Kogen Beer's “From Scratch” and Minoh Beer’s “Kozaru IPA.” A store manager-led event is also planned for May 23 and 24, making it a great spot to enjoy alongside the station-linked casual French menu.
Hop BroShiga Kogen Beer and Minoh Beer are being tapped at the same time in Kichijoji. At Craft Beer Market Atré Kichijoji, From Scratch and Kozaru IPA are on the lineup.
MugiWait, even the name From Scratch sounds hard! And Kozaru IPA... is there a little monkey holding the glass?
Hop BroThat’s the fun part: they’re two beers that are great to compare side by side. Kozaru IPA brings the hop character you’d expect from an IPA, while From Scratch has that sturdy Shiga Kogen depth, so the same bar feels completely different.
MugiHop character? What is that, like the hops are going wild?
Hop BroPretty much. The aroma and bitterness come from the hops, and IPAs tend to emphasize that. So Kozaru IPA is easy to approach if you imagine citrus notes and a crisp finish.
MugiI get it! And if it’s right next to the station, a beer after shopping sounds perfect.
Hop BroExactly. It’s on the first floor of Atré Kichijoji East, and it pairs really well with casual French food. It’s easy to use for a solo drink too, and the lineup is approachable even if you’re not used to craft beer.
MugiAnd on May 23 and 24, there’s even a manager’s celebration event? That’s adding way too many reasons to go on the weekend!
Hop BroThe event details need to be checked with staff, but they’re expected to serve a few dishes too, so it’s a really good weekend for chasing limited taps. It’s also nice that they have not just beer, but wine, whisky, sours, and cocktails as well.
MugiAll right, I’m in. That 5% discount next time is tempting too, so I’ll take From Scratch, and my brother gets Kozaru IPA. Once we drink it, we’re definitely going to say, ‘One more!’
Tap Update
In a May 13 post, Craft Beer Market Atré Kichijoji announced the addition of two new beers to its lineup. The selection is Shiga Kogen Beer “From Scratch” and Minoh Beer “Kozaru IPA.” Both are approachable for tasting side by side, and they stand out even among the bar’s usual lineup of around 30 taps.
An Easy Stop Right Next to Kichijoji Station
The store is located on the first floor of the Atré Kichijoji East Building, with the convenience of direct access from the station being one of its biggest strengths. Its concept is “casual French,” and it offers a lineup centered on domestic beer that is easy to choose from even for people not yet familiar with craft beer. From a quick solo drink to dinner after shopping or work, it is a highly convenient beer pub.
Store-Manager Event Planned for May 23 and 24
The post also announced a special “celebration” event inside the store on Saturday, May 23 and Sunday, May 24. Details of the event can be confirmed with staff, and several dishes are expected to be available as well. For anyone who wants to enjoy not only beer but also food with a French-inspired touch, this is the kind of weekend plan worth adding to the calendar.
Plenty of Ways to Drink
The official site also lists wine, whisky, sours, and cocktails in addition to up to 30 beers. There is also an offer for a 5% discount ticket usable on a future visit when paying in cash, adding to the store’s appeal as a place that’s easy to return to. Chasing limited taps while still having the comfort of standard easy-drinking options is part of what makes this place distinctive.
