Sakura Taps posts an eight-beer tap list for August 13
Sakura Taps in Yokohama stayed open on August 13 during Obon, serving from 3:00 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. The post listed eight beers on tap, including 無我霧中, 吉田町へレス 2026, IKARU, and 栗黒.
Hop BroToday's topic is Sakura Taps on Obon. They're open on August 13 from 3:00 p.m. to 11:30 p.m., with an 8-tap list that includes Muga Muchu and Kurikuro.
MugiWhat! Open through Obon is such a gift! And Muga Muchu and Kurikuro on the same day? That lineup is being way too generous.
Hop BroAnd the wild part is, there are no new tappings today and it still looks this stacked. You’ve got Yoshidacho Helles 2026 from Sakura Taps × Numazu Craft, IKARU from Groundtap Brewery, plus Robbo IPA, Salud Amigos!, and Da Boy Tommie, so the eight-tap spread is seriously strong.
MugiHold on, Yoshidacho Helles 2026 is what exactly!? Helles sounds less like a beer and more like a password to a secret taproom.
Hop BroHelles is a German-style lager built around soft grainy aroma and easy drinkability. It’s not aggressively bitter, so it’s basically unfair as an entry point into craft beer.
MugiOh wow! A gateway craft beer that tasty sounds dangerous. That’s the kind where you plan on one glass and somehow end up ordering three.
Hop BroThen you move to Understand from Break Edge Beer Works, and the Hiroshima haze specialist energy really shows. Sakura Taps says it’s already running low, too.
MugiNo way! The second I hear running low warning, I start speed-walking. And Kurikuro is low too? That’s ruthless to dark beer fans.
Hop BroKurikuro from Miyazaki Hideji Beer is a toasty dark beer with roasted depth and chestnut nuance, so it’s a perfect closer. And the spot itself, up on the second floor of Noraneko-dori in Yokohama’s Yoshidacho, sounds ideal for finding new favorites through beer, food, and music.
MugiThat’s it, my tasting-flight instinct has fully exploded. Start with the Helles, swing through the IPA zone, and finish on Kurikuro. I want to do that at Sakura Taps right now.
Sakura Taps announced that it would stay open through Obon on August 13, with hours from 3:00 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. The post also noted that there were no new draft arrivals that day, but the bar still lined up eight beers on tap.
The list was: Muga Muchu from Shiga Kogen Beer, Yoshidacho Helles 2026 from Sakura Taps × Numazu Craft, IKARU from Groundtap Brewery, Robbo IPA from Numazu Craft × Choshi Blue Lab, Salud Amigos! from Grandline Brewing, Understand from Break Edge Beer Works, Kurukuro from Miyazaki Hideji Beer, and Da Boy Tommie from DOK BREWING.
The post highlighted that Understand from Hiroshima-based Break Edge Beer Works, a brewery described as specializing in hazy IPAs, and the dark beer Kurukuro were running low. It also framed the bar as a place to discover new favorites through beer, food, and music.
