MugiWhat? Pacific saury in pasta? An autumn seafood pasta sounds irresistibly good!
Hop BroIt pairs saury with puttanesca—tomato, olives, and capers—so you can expect savory seafood and salinity in every bite.
MugiCapers suddenly sound so serious! Tell me what puttanesca is in beginner language!
Hop BroCapers are small flower buds preserved in brine; they add tang and salt. With olives and tomato, they create a bright, punchy sauce.
MugiGot it! That sounds perfect for the richness of saury. So what are the four beers on tap?
Hop BroThere are Hakuba IPA and Hakuba Pale Ale from Hakuba Brewing, Akita Komachi IPL from Akita Akura Beer, and Shiga Kogen IPA from Shiga Kogen Beer.
MugiSo many IPAs! But what is an IPL? Alphabet traffic jam—I’m lost!
Hop BroIPL means India Pale Lager: it combines a lager’s clean, crisp finish with hop character. Think crisp but hoppy.
MugiThen an IPA could reset my palate between bites, while a pale ale might be gentler with the dish. Bubbles reset the palate!
Hop BroExactly. Choose Hakuba IPA or Shiga Kogen IPA for stronger hop presence, Hakuba Pale Ale for an easy companion, or Akita Komachi IPL for crispness.
MugiIt’s about a three-minute walk from Umegaoka Station’s south exit! I suddenly want a saury-and-beer toast tonight!
Hop BroThey’re open until 1 a.m. Tuesday through Saturday and midnight Sunday. Check the current taps, then let’s enjoy an autumn pairing!

- Hakuba IPA — Hakuba Brewing
- Hakuba Pale Ale — Hakuba Brewing
- Akita Komachi IPL — Akita Akura Beer
- Shiga Kogen IPA — Shiga Kogen Beer
