Okei Brewery Nippori Unveils April 20 Tap List: 10 House Brews Plus Johana Beer and 808 Brewery
The brewpub Okei Brewery Nippori in Tokyo's Higashi-Nippori, Arakawa Ward, has released its tap list for Monday, April 20, 2026. In addition to 10 house-brewed beers, the lineup includes guest beers from Johana Beer and 808 Brewery, along with information on all-you-can-drink courses.
Hop BroOkei Brewery Nippori in Nippori has unveiled its April 20 tap list. There are 10 house brews and 2 guests, so it's a pretty substantial lineup.
MugiWhat! Ten house-brewed beers!? 12 taps total? I'm already getting lost before I even choose!
Hop BroExactly. And the lineup is interesting, with everything from Helles to Hazy styles. From a light lager to more aromatic, IPA-leaning beers, it's a lineup that shows the brewery's face from top to bottom.
MugiWhoa! But what is a Gose? Just the name makes it sound sour, which is kind of scary!
Hop BroGood question. It's a style with saltiness and acidity, and it has a crisp, refreshing mouthfeel. Something like Okei's 'Shio no Kaze Gose' is the kind of beer that keeps you reaching for your glass on a hot day.
MugiI see! So names like 'Pineappo!' or 'Spicy-Sour-Sweet-Bitter' give you a little clue about the flavor direction!
Hop BroExactly. And names like 'Super Arakawa Hazy Under the Bridge' and 'Arakawa Hazy Under the Bridge' have that strong local feel too. It really gives you a reason to drink in Nippori.
MugiWhen the place name is in it, it instantly feels more familiar! And with guest beers from Johana Beer and 808 Brewery, it sounds like you can even get a little off-site travel vibe!
Hop BroYeah, with Toyama's 'Kagayaki F7' and Tochigi's '808IPA BOOST,' the comparison tasting should be fun too. It's a very brewpub-style setup: see the breadth of the house beers, then widen the flavor landscape with the guests.
MugiAnd courses from 4,500 yen all the way to unlimited? That's bold! That means you can either just have a quick drink or settle in for a long feast!
Hop BroExactly. There's even an unlimited-time course on weekday evenings, so as a beer-centered day, it's impressively complete. This is the kind of place that makes you want to go on your next day off and do a tasting flight.
MugiYeah, I can't wait! I feel like I want to toast in Nippori, and tonight I might just fall asleep thinking about beer.
