Hop BroSakura Taps in Yokohama's Yoshida-cho announced that eight taps were running in its May 22 post. Even without any new kegs tapped, the place still feels like it's firmly in “ready to drink now” mode.
MugiReally? You can still enjoy it even without a new beer? The way they say finishing off a keg is welcome too sounds kind of exciting!
Hop BroExactly. Sakura Taps has a calm setup built around craft beer and coffee, and it's fun to follow the daily tap list. It's a Yoshida-cho spot that's easy to use for anyone in Yokohama looking for their first drink.
MugiI see, but what kind of thing are they going to start every Friday? Hearing that it begins in mid-June makes me way too curious!
Hop BroThat's the part to watch. The post said they would launch a new Friday project from around mid-June. The details are still secret, but it sounds like the mood of the place is about to shift again.
MugiKeeping it secret just makes me want to drink there even more! And today's lineup, this group of eight beers, is impressive!
Hop BroThe lineup includes Super Fresh from West Coast Brewing x Inkhorn Brewing, Yoshidacho Helles 2026 from Sakura Taps x Numazu Craft, and Ume Kyugo Gose from Repubrew. It's a very solid collaboration lineup, with IPA, gose, and helles all there, so you can choose based on your mood.
MugiWait, isn't the range of styles a little too wide? Gose, helles, and even strong ale types? My stomach is having a meeting over this!
Hop BroAnd on top of that, there's Tsunagi English IPA from Shiokaze Brew Lab, Kesennuma Pride ver. 12.1 from Black Tide Brewing, and Black Boxxx from Uchoten Brewing. In other words, there are multiple right answers to the question of 'what should I drink today,' and that's a happy kind of traffic jam.
MugiEven on a rainy day, I'd want to stop by, and I'm still curious about the new Friday project. At this point, I guess I just have to go. One drink at Sakura Taps is definitely the kind of thing both you and I would nod at!
Sakura Taps, the beer pub on the second floor of Nora Neko Street in Yokohama's Yoshida-cho, updated its business information in a post on May 22. Although there were no new kegs tapped this time, the bar continued to keep eight craft beers on tap, and it also revealed plans to start something new every Friday from around mid-June.
In that day's post, the pub said it would keep operating as usual even in the rainy weather, adding a message encouraging visitors to enjoy the lineup, including the chance to finish off a keg. Sakura Taps is known for its calm, comfortable space centered on craft beer and coffee, and part of the fun is following its ever-changing tap list. It is an easy choice not only for regulars, but also for beer fans in the Yokohama area looking for a first drink.
The following eight beers were listed as today's draft selection.
1. Super Fresh / West Coast Brewing x Inkhorn Brewing
2. Yoshidacho Helles 2026 / Sakura Taps x Numazu Craft
3. Ume Kyugo Gose / Repubrew
4. Kurgantaite / Bighand Bros. Beer

6. Kesennuma Pride ver. 12.1 / Black Tide Brewing
7. Shibaku zo! 2026 / Shiokaze Brew Lab

Looking at the lineup, it spans IPA, gose, helles, pale ale, and strong ale styles, giving drinkers plenty of room to choose based on mood. In particular, the inclusion of Sakura Taps' original Yoshidacho Helles 2026 really shows the bar's character. Among the collaboration beers, Super Fresh from West Coast Brewing x Inkhorn Brewing and Tsunagi English IPA with Shiokaze Brew Lab also stand out.
Sakura Taps is the kind of place to remember on a day when you want to compare craft beers in Yokohama. Although this post mainly served as a hiring announcement, the tap lineup alone was enough to catch any beer lover's attention. The follow-up to the new Friday project, which is set to begin in mid-June, is also something to look forward to, and future posts are worth keeping an eye on.
