taki in Shibuya taps Isekadoya's limited Ohisama Ale
Beer pub taki in Shibuya's Sakuragaoka area has tapped Ohisama Ale, a limited draft brew from Isekadoya Beer in Mie. On Sunday, July 12, the bar is open from 4:00 p.m. to midnight, with Minoh Beer and Ushitora Brewery also on tap.
Hop BroShibuya's taki just tapped Ohisama Ale, so there was no way I was skipping this topic. It's a keg-only brew from Isekadoya Beer in Mie, and it sounds built for summer.
MugiWait! Keg-only brew means you can basically chase it only while it's on tap there? The word limited is already pushing me toward Shibuya.
Hop BroExactly, and the style is an XPA. That means Extra Pale Ale, so you get bright hop character without going as heavy as a full-on IPA.
MugiWhat is that, beer algebra? So basically it means not too intense, and easy to drink even when it's hot out?
Hop BroThat's the idea. It's 6.0% ABV and 35 IBU, with bitterness that doesn't linger, so it stays crisp and keeps the glass moving.
MugiWhenever people say IBU, I get drunk on numbers! But if the bitterness doesn't stick around, even I could keep up with this one.
Hop BroAnd the hops are Citra, Mosaic, and Galaxy, so expect citrus and tropical aromas. It pours gold too, so the whole thing really fits the sunny name.
MugiOh wow, that's basically summer in a glass! And it won gold at the International Beer Cup 2025, so it's not just cheerful, it's legit.
Hop BroThe full lineup helps too. Minoh Beer's Grapefruit Sour and Ushitora Brewery's Kome PA make a perfect three-way tasting, and taki is open Sunday from 4:00 p.m. to midnight.
MugiThen we're going. First pour plan is Ohisama Ale, then the side-by-side tasting, and suddenly Shibuya sounds like the best summer stop possible.
