P-144×Citraba posts a seven-beer tap list ahead of its anniversary event
P-144×Citraba in Ikebukuro shared its latest craft beer lineup on August 5, ahead of its two-day anniversary event. The list spans lager, stout, IPA, and smoked styles from seven different beers.
Hop BroThere’s a fun story out of Ikebukuro today: P-144 x Citra Bar just posted its tap list right before the first anniversary.
MugiWhat, that three-floor beer pub has seven craft beers on at once? I’m already overwhelmed in the best way.
Hop BroThe range is the good part. It goes from Kankiku Brewery’s Fusanomai Lager all the way to LEVEL BEER’s SMOKE LEVEL 25, so it really covers the whole map.
MugiI get lager, but Smoke IPA? What is that supposed to be, a beer that went camping?
Hop BroHonestly, that’s not far off. It’s an IPA made with smoked malt, so you get a smoky, bacon-like aroma with hop bitterness on top. Weird at first, addictive after.
MugiOkay, now I’m curious. But I’d still start with something gentler, and Marihana already sounds cute enough to order.
Hop BroThat one’s a Session IPA from COEDO Brewery at 4.5% ABV, so it stays light. Tamamura Honten’s from scratch is a Blonde Ale, and that’s a very easy entry point too.
MugiHold on, ABV 4.5% sounds like a quiz score. You mean that’s basically the strength level?
Hop BroExactly, it’s the alcohol percentage. This lineup also has ASOBI BEER’s Kakikaki Stout, Tamamura Honten’s Snow Monkey IPA, and REVO BREWING’s NUVO RED IPA, so the style variety is huge.
MugiAnd they’ve got thick fresh pasta and Italian small plates too? Then I want to go around August 7 and 8 and do a full tasting run.
Hop BroThey’re open from 11:30 to 23:30, which is ideal. Start crisp, build up slowly, then finish with SMOKE LEVEL 25 and call it a proper arc.
MugiWow, that lineup actually has a story from start to finish. I’m fully in a one beer in Ikebukuro mood now.
P-144×Citraba sits about two minutes from Ikebukuro Station East Exit and combines P-144 with Citraba in a three-floor layout. The basement has private rooms, the first floor offers counter and table seating, and the second floor is all table seating, making it suitable for solo drinks, dates, group gatherings, and parties. The kitchen focuses on extra-thick fresh pasta and small-plate Italian dishes, designed to pair naturally with the rotating craft beer lineup and the house lemon sour menu.
