Seven Taps at Sloth House, with Peach Ale and DDH Hazy IPA on Tap
Craftbeer Sloth House/スロースハウス (Tarumachi, Kohoku Ward, Yokohama) has released its tap list for Friday service (12:00-22:00). From a fruit ale made with local Tsunashima peaches to a Hazy Double IPA from West Coast Brewing and sour styles from Open Air, seven spring-leaning beers are lined up.
Hop BroIf you're going hard from Friday noon until 10 p.m., Craftbeer Sloth House in Tarumachi, Kohoku Ward, Yokohama is one to watch. This time they've got 7 taps, and the lineup is full of spring-like picks.
MugiSeven kinds? And spring-like too? That's basically a prelude to hanami. The kind that gets you in a peach-and-cherry-blossom mood!
Hop BroThe one to watch is Yokohama Beer’s Yokohama Tsunashima Peach Ale. It’s a Peach Ale made with peaches tied to Tsunashima, and its delicate peach aroma and crisp finish are the best parts.
MugiA Peach Ale: is it like peach juice sweet? Or does it still taste like beer? I still don't know the right answer for fruit beer!
Hop BroIt usually doesn't go straight for sweetness; it shows the peach through aroma. This one is designed to lead with aroma first, and the finish drops away cleanly, so it's easy to pair with food too.
MugiI see! Then the hazy styles are tempting too! West Coast Brewing’s Full Hop Alchemist r7 sounds strong just from the name!
Hop BroExactly. That's a Hazy Double IPA. DDH means they double down on dry hopping, so it feels like a burst of hop aroma.
MugiSo dry hopping doesn't mean drying the hops! The name Keyphobia is interesting too, and Totopia Brewery’s Keyphobia sounds pretty wild.
Hop BroThat one is a DDH Hazy IPA: intense aroma density, but the bitterness doesn't come across as sharp. And with a Lager like And Beer’s RICE, you can reset your palate while you drink.
MugiOhh, a Lager is reassuring! And if Open Air’s sansho gose and berry belly are there too, you can play around with acidity.
Hop BroThe sansho gose brings spice, while the blueberry sour gives you fruitiness, so it's interesting that you can enjoy different directions of sourness. And with gogoshima beer farm’s Hime Madonna Hazy Pale Ale as well, it should hit the spot for citrus lovers too.
MugiSo there’s peach, hazy, lager, and acidity all in one place! Being able to do a tasting flight in one shop gives us every reason to go.
Hop BroExactly. It’s a spring seven-tap lineup that lifts your mood all at once. Today in Tarumachi, I want to follow the trail from peach aroma to acidity in order, and finish with the two of us going all in from the first glass.
The beer pub Craftbeer Sloth House/スロースハウス in Tarumachi, Kohoku Ward, Yokohama, Kanagawa, has announced a 7-tap lineup for Friday service. In its post, it described the day as “a Friday where peaches and cherry blossoms are beginning to bloom, and we look forward to a riot of flowers,” centering the lineup on beers that match the feel of spring.
The highlight this time is Yokohama Beer’s Yokohama Tsunashima Peach Ale. It is a Peach Ale made with peaches associated with Tsunashima, and the post describes it as featuring a delicate peach aroma and a crisp finish. The clear connection between place and ingredient gives it a distinctly local character.
For hop-forward options, there is West Coast Brewing’s Full Hop Alchemist r7 (Hazy Double IPA) and Totopia Brewery’s Keyphobia (DDH Hazy IPA). In addition, And Beer’s RICE (Lager) rounds things out, covering not only aromatic styles but also dry, crisp beers.
Open Air contributes two sour-leaning beers. sansho gose (Japanese-style Gose) and berry belly (blueberry sour) offer both spice-driven nuance and fruit character. Also included is gogoshima beer farm’s Hime Madonna Hazy Pale Ale w/FOLUFFY FARM (Fruit Hazy Pale Ale), making the lineup appealing to those who want bright citrus-like fruitiness.
Located in the Tsunashima area, the shop’s strength is its casual ability to span a wide range of styles. This seven-tap selection balances fruit, hazy, lager, gose, and sour beers, making it easy to build a tasting flight all in one place.
