Hop BroIrish Pub Tullamore in Tomigaya has a really strong lineup for Sunday, May 17. With Guinness, Shiga Kogen IPA, and even Yebisu, the range of entry points is just right.
MugiWait, you can drink Guinness and Shiga Kogen IPA on the same day? That sounds like a black-vs-hop showdown, and I’m excited!
Hop BroExactly. The three-beer Regular Beer lineup is strong. A classic stout, a hop-forward IPA, and a familiar lager make it a setup where you can choose your first pint by mood.
MugiBut like, I hear about IPAs all the time, but what does hop-forward actually mean? Do the hops dance in your mouth?
Hop BroMore than dance, it means the aroma and bitterness come to the front. Shiga Kogen Beer IPA has a clear aroma and bitterness profile, so it’s the kind of beer that pairs well with food too.
MugiOhhh! Then I’m also curious about the Irish Red! A red beer already looks stylish just from the color, doesn’t it?
Hop BroExactly. For Today's English Style Ale, it’s Ikari Brewing’s Irish Red, and it’s nitro poured too. The nitrogen makes the foam finer and gives it a smoother mouthfeel.
MugiNitro? What is that, some magic thing that creates fine, creamy foam!? Suddenly the bar counter feels like a lab!
Hop BroI don’t hate the lab vibe. And Today's Guest Beer is Kind of Gold from DOGFISH HEAD x OXBOW x Shiga Kogen Beer, a pretty adventurous W-IPA with Rice & Honey.
MugiW-IPA with Rice & Honey means an IPA with rice and honey in it? That sounds sweet, but it’s still an IPA, so my brain is a little confused!
Hop BroThat’s what makes it interesting. It’s brewed to aim for a balance of citrus notes and sweetness. The collaboration presence is strong too, so it’s the kind of beer that gives you more to talk about with every sip.
MugiAnd there’s even weekend-only lamb roast? That’s basically cheating! Steamed vegetables, mashed potatoes, mint sauce... it feels like the beer is being called over!
Hop BroExactly. If you compare both the classics and the collaboration beers and pair them with the lamb roast, it would make for an amazing Sunday. Start slowly in Tomigaya, and by the end the two of us will probably be saying, just one more pint.
The Irish pub Tullamore in Tomigaya, Shibuya, Tokyo, has revealed its draft beer lineup for Sunday, May 17. On Sundays, it opens at 15:00 and closes at 23:00, making it an easy place to start drinking at a relaxed pace. In the calm atmosphere typical of the Yoyogi Park area, the shop’s appeal lies in its wide selection, from classics to guest beers.
That day’s Regular Beer lineup is a three-beer set: Guinness, Shiga Kogen Beer IPA, and Yebisu. From a classic stout to a hop-forward IPA and a familiar lager, the lineup makes it easy to choose your first drink. With clearly defined taps, it is also easy to build around food pairing in mind.
For Today's English Style Ale -Nitro-, Ikari Brewing’s Irish Red is on offer. Thanks to the nitrogen pour, it promises a finely textured mouthfeel and a smooth drinking experience. For those who want to enjoy a reddish malt character, it offers a different option from the standard black stout or lager.
Today's Guest Beer is Kind of Gold from DOGFISH HEAD x OXBOW x Shiga Kogen Beer. Introduced as a W-IPA with Rice & Honey, it has the presence you would expect from a collaboration between two American breweries and Shiga Kogen Beer. Brewed with an eye toward balancing citrus notes and sweetness, it is an attention-worthy guest slot with plenty of complexity.
The food menu features weekend-only lamb roast. Served with steamed vegetables and mashed potatoes, plus mint sauce and gravy, it is an easy choice as a pub meal companion in classic Irish-pub style. The dimly lit interior and Guinness-centered atmosphere should pair well with a night spent slowly savoring craft beer. For anyone in Tomigaya on a Sunday who wants to compare both classics and collaborations, this is a tap list worth visiting.
