Hop BroToday's story is Beer Bar Festa Shimokitazawa: 11 beers on draft and doors open at 6 p.m. on August 4.
MugiWhat! Eleven at once!? And there's still a little anniversary beer left for takeaway? My brain is already raising a toast.
Hop BroIt's two minutes from the station, with 12 taps and even darts, so it's easy to settle in whether you're solo or with a group.
MugiNo way, and Purple Jet Sky from Y.Market Brewing sounds like it should come with a runway.
Hop BroPlus Jacaranda is on too, so you've got two Y.Market picks setting up the aromatic side of the list.
MugiHold on, West Coast Pilsner from T.Y. Harbor? What is that? Is it a pilsner with ocean breeze in it?
Hop BroNo sea breeze, just crisp with hop aroma. It drinks clean, but the bitterness and fragrance still show up properly.
MugiOkay, so Yokohama Beer's weizen, Setouchi's dunkel, and Houjou's stout cover the soft and toasty side of the menu?
Hop BroExactly. Then overseas you've got Revision DIPA, Division's Disco Ninja IPA, and DDC!'s Rose de Hibiscus, so it's a serious hop-heavy lineup.
MugiThere it is again: DIPA! That's an alphabet hairpin turn and my brain just turned into foam.
Hop BroDIPA means Double IPA, basically more bitterness, more aroma. With Heartland as the dependable reset button, it's the kind of list that makes you want to stay until the 1 a.m. weekday last call.
MugiI'm done for, I want to grab the anniversary beer and start pairing drafts with house-made sausage right now. Festa Shimokitazawa sounds dangerously delicious tonight.

August 4 update
In the post, the bar says it opens at 6:00 p.m. and, because it is a weekday, stays open until 1:00 a.m. It also mentions that a few takeaway anniversary beers are still available, so guests can enjoy them on-site or take them home.
Draft lineup for the day
- Y Market Brewing "Jacaranda"
- Y Market "Purple Jet Sky"
- Hojou "Stout"
- Yokohama Beer "Weizen"
- Setouchi "Dunkel"
- T.Y. Harbor "Kanpai West Coast Pilsner"
- Heartland
- Revision "Revision DIPA"
- Deux Ciels "Moralite"
- Division "Disco Ninja IPA"
- DDC! "Rose Dibiiscus"
The domestic side covers classic styles such as weizen, dunkel, and stout, while the imported lineup ranges from a DIPA to IPA and a more distinctive rose beer. The result is a menu that gives beer fans plenty of room to compare styles rather than just ordering by name.
