craft beer BLUE Opens FETISH CLUB and Totopia Brews in Sagamihara
craft beer BLUE, a beer pub in Sagamihara’s Sagamidai area, announced two new taps under the post “Opening two beers today.” The lineup includes FETISH CLUB’s DDH West Coast IPA and Totopia Brewery’s West Coast Lager, available from 5:00 p.m. the same day.
Hop BroSagamidai's craft beer BLUE is pouring two new taps from 5 p.m. today: FETISH CLUB's Seaside Fetish Club and Totopia Brewery's Nullphobia. That lineup has teeth.
MugiWait, both on one day? That's already exciting, and those names sound intense. What kind of beers are they?
Hop BroSeaside Fetish Club is a DDH West Coast IPA. Think grapefruit, orange peel, pineapple, passion fruit, blueberry, even mango, then a clean bitter snap at the end.
MugiHold on, what is DDH? That sounds like a spell I need to cast before I sip.
Hop BroEasiest version: extra hop aroma. They load in more hops for aroma so the citrus and tropical notes jump right out of the glass.
MugiOhhh! So it's the kind that hits your nose first. But if it's bitter and snappy, is that beginner friendly or am I getting ambushed?
Hop BroThat's why the counterpoint matters: Totopia's Nullphobia is a West Coast Lager. Clear gold, crisp mouthfeel, lychee-like freshness, floral notes, then a bitter dank finish.
MugiWhat even is a dank finish? That suddenly sounds like a stylish basement.
Hop BroFair question. In beer talk, green, resinous hops is the shortcut. A little grassy, a little piney, and it leaves a firm outline after the lager's light body.
MugiOkay, I get it now. One has IPA heft, the other has lager definition, so side-by-side tasting is the move. I started with one glass in mind and now I want both.
Hop BroAnd craft beer BLUE is the kind of pub where tap swaps are fun. They also had Sour Ale, Yuzu Pale Ale, and Chocolate Stout on the list, but these two are begging to be compared.
MugiThen it's settled. Let's meet upstairs in Sagamidai for a 5 p.m. toast and start with Seaside Fetish Club before finishing sharp with Nullphobia. Now I really want a drink.
Tap Update
craft beer BLUE, located on the second floor in Sagamidai, Sagamihara, added two new beers to the taps. The bar is the kind of place where changing tap lists are part of the appeal, and this update brings two beers with clearly different expressions.
The two beers on tap
- FETISH CLUB “Seaside Fetish Club”
A DDH West Coast IPA built around grapefruit, orange peel, pineapple, passion fruit, blueberry, and mango notes. It is described as having the clean snap and bitterness typical of a West Coast IPA.
- Totopia Brewery “Nullphobia (Empty Fear)”
A West Coast Lager with a clear golden color, crisp mouthfeel, a lychee-like freshness, floral nuance, and a bitter, dank finish.
craft beer BLUE is a beer pub at Garden Bldg. II, 2F, 2-2-2 Sagamidai, Minami-ku, Sagamihara, Kanagawa. The appeal here is not only the beers themselves, but also the way the taps shift and keep the lineup moving. This particular update pairs a hop-heavy IPA with a sharp, aromatic lager, making it an easy choice for a side-by-side comparison.
The reported tap list also showed a broad mix, including Sour Ale, DDH Double Hazy IPA, Yuzu Pale Ale, and Chocolate Stout. It is the sort of lineup that lets drinkers choose between hop intensity, crisp lager character, and darker styles in one visit.
