CRAFT BEER MARKET Tamachi taps Tokoshie Brewing and KCBC’s Robocroc
In its June 10 post, CRAFT BEER MARKET Tamachi added Tokoshie Brewing’s Ubugoe and Honoakari, plus KCBC’s Robocroc. The beer pub’s French-leaning food menu and easygoing setting make it a good place to compare three very different guest beers.
Hop BroTamachi just got a seriously tempting tap list. CRAFT BEER MARKET Tamachi has Tokoshie Brewing’s Ubugoe and Honoakari on, plus KCBC’s Robocroc.
MugiWait, so this is a three-beer tasting situation? Having Japanese and overseas guest beers side by side on the same day feels like a mini event!
Hop BroAnd each beer has a clear role. Ubugoe is a first-batch pale ale with a gentle profile, Honoakari is a fruit wheat, and Robocroc is a West Coast IPA.
MugiWhat does first batch release even mean? The name Ubugoe already sounds like a brewery’s very first cry, and now it makes too much sense!
Hop BroExactly. It means the first beer a brewery sends out into the world, kind of like a liquid business card. And Ubugoe is described as easy and gentle, so it’s a great entry point.
MugiThen Honoakari is the reward round! four-berry character makes it sound like the whole glass just turned into a berry field!
Hop BroThat’s the good part. It’s not just sweet fruit; the soft wheat base carries strawberry, blackberry, blueberry, and blackcurrant into a juicy, fruity pour.
MugiWhoa! But KCBC’s Robocroc suddenly sounds intense. Are Strata and Simcoe hop names, or robot finishing moves?
Hop BroHalf right, and both are hop varieties. Robocroc is a classic West Coast IPA with citrus, a green edge, and a crisp bitter finish that snaps everything into place.
MugiThat absolutely sounds like it needs food. craft beer and French comfort food together feels like the kind of pairing that keeps you glued to your seat in Tamachi.
Hop BroAnd it’s walkable from JR Tamachi Station or Mita Station, with party plans from two people. Being able to line up rising Japanese breweries with overseas names like KCBC is a Tamachi-only kind of fun.
MugiI can already see the order. I want to start calm with Ubugoe, melt into Honoakari, then wake back up with Robocroc. I seriously want to line up all three right now, and you’re coming too, right?
Hop BroObviously. tasting flight locked in: Ubugoe first, Honoakari with food, Robocroc to finish. Just talking about it makes my throat head straight for Tamachi.
Beers on tap
In CRAFT BEER MARKET Tamachi’s June 10 post, two beers from Tokoshie Brewing were introduced: Ubugoe and Honoakari. Ubugoe is a first-batch pale ale, described in the post as especially gentle and easy to drink. Honoakari is a fruit wheat beer with berry-driven character, including strawberry, blackberry, blueberry, and black currant notes.
A new arrival from KCBC (Kings County Brewers Collective) was also announced: Robocroc. It is presented as a West Coast IPA built around Strata, Simcoe, Nelson, Amarillo, and Chinook hops, with citrus, green, and moderately bitter elements.
Why Tamachi works
CRAFT BEER MARKET Tamachi is a beer pub built around the idea of pairing craft beer with everyday French-style dishes. It is within walking distance of Tamachi and Mita stations, and the space is designed to work for solo drinkers as well as groups without feeling too formal.
The bar also offers a drink-all-you-can party plan for groups of two or more, which makes it a practical choice for tastings, casual gatherings, or a longer beer-focused evening. For drinkers who want to compare a Japanese up-and-coming brewery with an overseas guest tap in one visit, Tamachi is an easy place to do it.
