Craft Beer Scissors Akihabara Adds Three Hansharo Beer Cans to Its May 11 Tap List
In a May 11 post, Craft Beer Scissors Akihabara announced that day's tap list and its new canned beers. The 15 taps featured selections from Nobody Brewing, Teenage Brewing, Black Tide Brewing, Seoul Brewing, and Good Hops, while three Hansharo Beer cans were newly added.
Hop BroAkihabara's 15-tap rotation is heating up. Craft Beer Scissors Akihabara's May 11 tap list is packed with Nobody Brewing and Teenage Brewing, making the shop's personality immediately visible.
MugiWait, 15 taps? That's that many!? And Nobody Brewing and Teenage Brewing already sound like a ton of information just from the names!
Hop BroExactly. Nobody Brewing alone brought in four beers, with names like The House and The Glitch that already have some edge to them. And Tidal Cycles is a collaboration with Black Tide Brewing, which is the fun part: you can see these beers as connected pieces.
MugiTidal Cycles? What is that, exactly? Are collaboration beers really that different? It feels like it's not just the names being merged, but the flavors too?
Hop BroYeah, basically it's when breweries design the beer together, so it's a multiplication of personalities. Teenage Brewing also has seven beers this time, plus Black Tide Brewing's Heaven 's Age and Seoul Brewing's Holy MORI, which really makes you want to compare them side by side.
MugiWow, seven beers lined up is impressive! SHOHEI Zen and Sound Clash and all that, I'd just end up standing in front of the shelf having a meeting with myself!
Hop BroAnd there's also Good Hops's MURAKAMI SEVEN Lager, so there is a solid option for taking a breather without getting too heavy. Having one lager really helps set the rhythm of the whole lineup.
MugiThat's so cool, a lager that keeps things in balance! But what caught my attention most in the article is definitely the cans. Is Hansharo Beer really that heavily featured?
Hop BroThat's the main highlight this time: three new cans. Yoritomo and Tarozaemon are nitro cans, so you can enjoy that creamy mouthfeel, and New World Kölsch is an easy springtime drink, so the strength here is that you can choose based on your mood.
MugiOh, so Akihabara is strong on cans too. Looking over the 15 taps and the bottle shelves, then finishing with a nitro can or a Kölsch, I'd probably never want to leave!
Hop BroExactly. Places like this are fun because the encounter of the day becomes the whole experience, so today's pour becomes the star. Next time, let's actually go and seriously debate what we open.
MugiAgreed! Let's go in with a tasting-comparison mindset. Both the taps and the cans sound interesting, and now I can think about nothing but beer!
May 11 Tap List
On May 11, Craft Beer Scissors Akihabara posted a tap list summarizing that day's current pours along with a notice about new arrivals. Located in a back alley in Akihabara, the shop is known as a beer pub and bottle shop handling 15 taps and around 200 bottle selections from Japan and abroad, with options for drinking in-house as well as takeaway by growler or plastic cup.
The lineup for the day began with four beers from Nobody Brewing: `The House`, `The Glitch`, `The Folk`, and `The Slowcore`, plus the collaboration `Nobody Brewing×Black Tide Brewing / Tidal Cycles`. Teenage Brewing contributed seven beers: `SHOHEI Zen`, `Sound Clash`, `Second Coming`, `KENYA SANA MATUNDA`, `The Loft Jazz`, `Orange Circle`, and `Turning Dragon`. Also on tap were the collaboration `Heaven 's Age` with Black Tide Brewing and `Holy MORI` with Seoul Brewing. In addition, Good Hops's `MURAKAMI SEVEN Lager` was also on tap.
New Hansharo Beer Cans
The post prominently announced three canned beers from Hansharo Beer at the start. `Yoritomo` and `Tarozaemon` are nitro cans of regular beers named after locally connected historical figures. They are introduced as beers with a creamy mouthfeel. `New World Kölsch` was presented as a easy-drinking beer suited to the spring weather, and being able to choose it not only on tap but also in cans was one of the day's highlights.
In Akihabara, the strength of this shop is being able to keep up with all 15 taps while also taking in the bottle shelves at a glance. Every time you stop by, the day's tap list becomes part of the shop's character. This post, too, neatly captures the appeal of finding a beer that changes from day to day.
