Mikkeller Kiosk/Bar in Shibuya Adds Atsumi Peninsula Brewing Hazy IPAs AKAIRA and RAKAIA
Mikkeller Kiosk/Bar in Shibuya has added two Hazy beers from Atsumi Peninsula Brewing, AKAIRA and RAKAIA. Built from the same recipe base, the pair is set up as an easy side-by-side tasting comparison.
Hop BroShibuya's Mikkeller Kiosk/Bar just got a hazy twin drop from Atsumi Peninsula Brewing. AKAIRA and RAKAIA look practically built for a side-by-side.
MugiWait, beer can have a twin concept? AKAIRA and RAKAIA sound like names that would make my tongue dry-hop itself!
Hop BroThey share the same base recipe, then split through hop and yeast choices. That's why it's basically a drinker’s textbook for spotting differences.
MugiSo HAZY means the cloudy style star? Same recipe but different personalities sounds like one twin suddenly showing up in sunglasses.
Hop BroThat analogy is weirdly solid. AKAIRA uses Citra, Mosaic, Sabro, and Talus, and goes full classic Hazy IPA with coconut, lychee, and a juicy mouthfeel.
MugiWhat is this, a tropical fruit parade? Then where does RAKAIA pull ahead?
Hop BroRAKAIA brings Peacharine, Mega Motueka, and Citra, plus weizen yeast. That adds fruity lift and a fuller, deeper expression.
MugiHold on, what is weizen yeast? If the yeast has that much personality, it's basically the lead singer now!
Hop BroIt's a yeast often used in wheat beers, and it can add softness to aroma and texture. Because the base is shared, it becomes a crystal-clear comparison. I'm ready to speed-walk from Shibuya Station.
MugiSame, I want to go right now! At Mikkeller Kiosk/Bar I need to order AKAIRA and RAKAIA back-to-back and taste the twin drama for myself!
Mikkeller Kiosk/Bar, the beer pub in Shibuya, has received two guest beers from Atsumi Peninsula Brewing: AKAIRA and RAKAIA. Both are Hazy-style beers built around the same recipe foundation, making them a clear pair for side-by-side tasting.
AKAIRA uses Citra, Mosaic, Sabro, and Talus. It leans into the classic Hazy IPA direction, with tropical aromatics and a juicy, soft finish that keeps the beer easy to drink.
RAKAIA is brewed with Peacharine, Mega Motueka, and Citra, plus wheat beer yeast. The result is a fruit-forward profile with extra depth from the yeast character, giving it a rounder and more layered impression.
Located on the first floor of all day place shibuya, Mikkeller Kiosk/Bar is the kind of place where guest beers like these stand out. Because the two beers share a common base but differ in hops and yeast, they offer a straightforward way to compare how small recipe changes shape aroma, texture, and finish.
