Craft Beer 2mugi to Pour 6 Draft Beers on 4/7, Including Vector Brewing; Opens at 5:00 PM
Craft Beer 2mugi in Akihabara has released its tap list for April 7. The lineup features six beers, starting with Vector Brewing's "BAKA-UMAI HAZY IPA," plus offerings from BREWCCOLY, Katashina Brewing, Noroshi Brewing, Mikkeller Tokyo, and Barbaric Works x te_breetschoot. A cat-visit event is also planned for April 19.
Hop BroCraft Beer 2mugi in Akihabara has put out its draft lineup for April 7. And it's open from 17:00 to 23:00, so it's the kind of place you'd want to stop by after work.
MugiWait, six draft beers? That's way too luxurious, isn't it? If that many are on the board, I'd walk in and already have that "today is a win" face on!
Hop BroAnd it starts strong too. Vector Brewing's BAKA-UMAI HAZY IPA is a bold name, and as a Hazy IPA you can expect a juicy profile.
MugiHuh! But why are Hazy IPAs always so cloudy? What, are they the beer world's fog machine?
Hop BroThat's a good one. Their signature is haze and hop character, and the bitterness tends to feel softer. So it makes sense you'd want to call it "baka-umai".
MugiThat's so interesting! And BREWCCOLY's CROSS is making its debut as a Munich saison, which is so much information my brain is starting to foam over!
Hop BroOn top of that, Mikkeller Tokyo's Forest Friends is coming in as a new West Coast IPA. Then there's Katashina Brewing's Scotch Ale and Noroshi Brewing's India Black Lager, so the lineup is interesting because it covers malt depth and roasty notes too.
MugiWow, hearing malt depth makes it suddenly feel like "grown-up barley"! But is an India Black Lager really a lager if it's black? My head is getting twisted up!
Hop BroThe black color comes from roasted malt, but it still has the crispness of a lager. It looks heavy, but the drinking experience is balanced, and that's the charm of this day's lineup.
MugiAnd there's even a Foeder-aged Saison? Just imagining that barrel character makes it sound delicious! Honestly, I kind of want to get lost somewhere in the middle of a tasting flight.
Hop BroExactly, and this place also has a solid food menu, so you can properly enjoy it even from your first stop. The owner also serves serious German beer, and the laid-back atmosphere makes the drinks go down easy.
MugiAnd on Sunday, April 19, Shippo-chan the cat is coming by? That's almost unfair, isn't it? Beer plus cats is way too peaceful; I want to keep coming back.
Hop BroThat's a strong move in Akihabara. Just looking at the six distinctive draft beers and spending time deciding what to start with is part of the fun. It sounds like that kind of night.
MugiDecision made, I want to do a tasting flight right now too! I'll start with BAKA-UMAI to get the momentum going, then wrap up with Shippo-chan for some cozy vibes!
Tap List for April 7
On this day, Craft Beer 2mugi will be open from 17:00 to 23:00, and announced a lineup of six draft beers. As you would expect from a beer pub near Akihabara Station, the selection brings together distinctive domestic and international brews, and even reading the names makes you want to start imagining a tasting flight.
Main Beers for the Day
- Vector Brewing / BAKA-UMAI HAZY IPA / Hazy IPA
- BREWCCOLY / CROSS / Munich saison
- Katashina Brewing / Thistle's Breath / Scotch Ale
- Noroshi Brewing / India Black Lager / Mixed Style
- Mikkeller Tokyo / Forest Friends / West Coast IPA
- Barbaric Works x te_breetschoot / Spider Thread / Foeder-aged Saison
Among the beers listed for the day, Vector Brewing's Hazy IPA is marked as LAST CALL. BREWCCOLY's Munich saison is a new addition, and Mikkeller Tokyo's West Coast IPA has also just joined the lineup. Katashina Brewing's Scotch Ale and Noroshi Brewing's India Black Lager are both the kind of beers you want to savor for their malt depth and roasty character.
In addition to carefully selected authentic German beers chosen by the owner, who is a Doemens-certified beer sommelier, Craft Beer 2mugi also offers draft beers from Japan and overseas, along with sake and whisky. Small dishes are available too, making it an easy place to stop in from the first round and enjoy food alongside your drinks. The warm, relaxed atmosphere inside is part of its charm.
It was also announced that on Sunday, April 19, the regular customer's beloved cat, "Shippo-chan," will be visiting. Rather than a special event, the idea is more like a calm Sunday night with a cat in the usual bar atmosphere, and guests with cat allergies are advised to visit on another day.
If you're drinking craft beer in Akihabara, this is a spot worth noting for letting you enjoy both the personality of the taps and the comfort of the bar at the same time.
