Ushitora Ichigoten's guest beer spotlight: Ushitora Brewery's new '1006 Seiryō Dōryō-zui'
Ushitora Brewery introduced its new Session IPA, '1006 Seiryō Dōryō-zui,' on Instagram. The post frames it as a refreshing, easy-drinking beer suited to around 30°C summer weather, making it a guest-beer pick worth watching at Ushitora Ichigoten in Shimokitazawa.
Hop BroToday's pick is 1006 Seiryo Inryo-sui, a new beer from Ushitora Brewery that feels worth chasing as a guest tap at Ushitora Ichigoten.
MugiThat name already hits hard! Seiryo Inryo-sui sounds like a soft drink that secretly punches back, right!?
Hop BroThat playful naming is very Ushitora, and the style is a Session IPA, which makes it sound built for hot weather and easy drinking.
MugiWait, hold on, Session IPA means what exactly? Not a beer for business meetings... right!?
Hop BroIn simple terms, it's a lighter IPA. You still get the hoppy aroma, but it stays easier on the palate and doesn't wear you out.
MugiOhhh! So even on a 30-degree day it can be super gulpable, like the perfect first glass?
Hop BroExactly, and the post even framed it as a clean, crisp beer. It sounds like the kind of pour that works between bites of food too.
MugiAnd it's showing up at Ushitora Ichigoten in Daita, right? Shimokitazawa getting a summer answer key in beer form feels unfair!
Hop BroThat's the fun of guest beer: you can drink the season. The choice of what to pour says a lot about the pub's sense of timing.
MugiI'm sold. The joke name and the easy-drinking angle both got me, and now I want to walk in like first pint decided before I even sit down!
Hop BroThen that's the move. We find that hoppy aroma, knock back a perfect summer pour, and both end up saying, yep, this was the right call.
A light Session IPA for summer
Ushitora Brewery’s Instagram post introduces a new beer, `1006 Seiryō Dōryō-zui` Session IPA. The caption opens with a playful note about Drami, who is living on-site at the brewery, before moving on to the beer itself. The tone is light, but the main point is a straightforward announcement of a new release.
The timing is the key detail here: the beer is being presented as the weather climbs to around 30°C and starts to feel properly summery. In the post, it is described as a refreshing beer that is easy to drink in large gulps. That makes it a sensible fit for hot days, whether as a first pint or something to sip alongside food. Session IPA, by nature, is a style that tends to balance drinkability with hop character, so it is an easy one for beer fans to keep on their radar.
