The lineup also includes beers whose aroma and drinking character stand out clearly, such as Yamaguchi's FETISH CLUB “SUPER SPARTAN” (DDH HAZY IPA 7%), France's Fauve Craft Bière “Parfums Exotiques” (DDH NZ DIPA 8%), and Spain's GROSS “SATURATION CITRA” (NE HAZY IPA 6.5%).

Among domestic breweries, it includes Kanagawa's Yugawara-based HUMANS BEER “MOSAIC ADVENTURE” (West Coast IPA 8%) and West Coast Brewing's “Full Hop Alchemist v29” (HAZY DIPA 8.5%) from Mochimune, Shizuoka, making it a lineup that also appeals to people looking for a hop-forward pint. It also offers Czech SIBEERIA “RAINTOWN” (NE DIPA 8%) and “Nostalgie 70S” (American Barleywine 10.7%), showing consideration for beer fans who prefer heavier styles.

The permanent taps also feature FULLERS “LONDON PRIDE,” Paulaner “Paulaner Weissbier,” and SAPPORO “Edelpils,” covering classic pale ale, weissbier, and pilsner selections.
