Hop BroSomething worth flagging in Nakano: just tapped at Citraba Nakano is Minoh Beer’s limited Spring Lager.
MugiWhat! A limited beer from Minoh in Nakano? That instantly upgrades the after-work route.
Hop BroAnd this one’s a German-style lager, built around a balance of crispness and malt depth, which is a very spring-friendly move.
MugiHold on, what does that crispness even mean? Is the beer supposed to crunch like chips?
Hop BroNot crunchy, just clean on the palate. It means a sharp, snappy finish that drinks easily without feeling watery.
MugiThat sounds great! Perfect for spring drinking, and they still opened from 4 p.m. after the typhoon? Serious dedication.
Hop BroExactly. Their update said table seats were mostly booked, but the counter and terrace still had room, so solo drop-ins still work.
MugiNice, I love a casual stop-in. But when they say kegs are almost kicked, it suddenly sounds like a race against time.
Hop BroThat’s basically what it is. They’re close to a tap rotation, so the current lineup, including Spring Lager, probably won’t last long.
MugiOkay, now I fully want this. With Citraba’s chicken on the side, a glass of Spring Lager on the terrace sounds way too good to pass up.
Limited Spring Lager on tap
At Craft Beer Sakaba Citraba Nakano in Nakano 5-49-7, the bar introduced Minoh Beer’s Spring Lager as a limited seasonal tap. The post describes it as a German-style lager with a focus on crispness and balance.
The bar is known as a beer pub centered on draft craft beer. In this update, it reopened after the typhoon and started service at 4 p.m. Tables were almost fully booked, but counter seats and terrace seating were still available, making it clear the bar can work both for planned visits and for casual drop-ins.
Before the tap list changes again
Another notable point in the post is that several kegs are close to being kicked, and the tap lineup is expected to change quite a bit next week. In other words, the beers available now may not stay around for long. If you want to catch the current selection, including this limited lager, earlier is better.
Citraba Nakano is a neighborhood beer pub where guests can pair craft beer with food. The bar’s selling point is not only the rotating taps, but also its food menu, which includes house favorites such as Citraba Chicken, shumai, and simmered dishes. It is the kind of place where you can stay for one beer or settle in for a proper meal.
A relaxed Nakano stop
Set a little away from the busiest station frontage, the bar has a more relaxed feel than a high-traffic drinking spot. Even when table seats are reserved, counter and terrace seating can make it easy to stop by for a single drink. For anyone looking for a spring-leaning lager and a straightforward neighborhood beer bar in Nakano, this is a place worth remembering.
