Susukino Yell STAND adds Tsuki to Taiyo Brewery's lemon-driven guest beer
The beer pub Susukino Yell STAND in Sapporo’s Susukino district now features a guest beer from Tsuki to Taiyo Brewing, listed as “Tsuki to Taiyo Brewery.” The beer is presented as an original for Gyoza to Men Ise no Jo and is described as a bright, lemon-forward release.
Hop BroThere’s a new pour in Susukino: a guest beer from Tsuki to Taiyo BREWING just landed at Susukino Ale STAND. The name alone, “Tsuki to Taiyo Brewery,” really pulls you in.
MugiWait, Tsuki to Taiyo Brewery is the beer name too? I’m already lost and we haven’t even taken a sip!
Hop BroThat’s the funny part. The brewer is Tsuki to Taiyo BREWING, the beer is “Tsuki to Taiyo Brewery,” and it’s now on tap at Susukino Ale STAND as a guest beer.
MugiOhhh! And it’s an original for Gyoza to Men Isenojo? So they seriously built it as a beer for gyoza?
Hop BroExactly. It’s paler than a traditional bitter or pale ale, so the overall feel is a light-colored easy ale made for smooth drinking.
MugiHold on, what is drinkability? Every time you say that, it starts sounding like beer homework!
Hop BroIt just means smooth and easy to drink. Then they layer in fresh hop aroma and plenty of domestic Japanese lemon.
MugiNo way! Loads of Japanese lemon sounds amazing, but is it still beer and not just some fancy lemon soda?
Hop BroThat’s the clever part. They’re aiming for a lemon-bite kind of depth, not a flat lemon flavor. It’s built to lift the savory, toasty side of gyoza.
MugiOkay, that’s unfair. Down at COCONO SUSUKINO B1F for 1,000 yen tax included, one sip leading to the next sounds dangerously convincing!
Hop BroThat’s exactly why I want it too. The gyoza-beer sweet spot is what this pint is chasing, and I’d make it my first order.
MugiThen it’s settled! I’m taking a bite of dumpling first, then that lemony first sip right after. I’m thirsty already!
At Susukino Yell STAND, a beer pub on the basement floor of COCONO SUSUKINO in central Sapporo, a guest beer from Tsuki to Taiyo Brewing is now on offer: “Tsuki to Taiyo Brewery.” The product page lists it at JPY 1,000 including tax, making it a clear addition to the venue’s lineup.
The beer is introduced as an original for Gyoza to Men Ise no Jo. According to the description, it is paler than a traditional bitter or pale ale, with a fresh hop aroma and high drinkability. It also uses plenty of domestic lemon, aiming for a layered aroma and flavor that feels closer to biting into the fruit itself than to a simple lemon-flavored beer.
Its concept is straightforward: a beer made to pair with gyoza. The lemon notes are meant to wrap around the savory, toasted character of dumplings and lead into the next sip. For drinkers looking for a food-friendly guest beer in Sapporo’s city center, this is an easy one to note.
