The Cat & Cask Tavern updates its June 24 tap list with four beers
The Cat & Cask Tavern in Kanamecho, Tokyo, has posted its Wednesday, June 24 tap list. The lineup features four beers from Shiga Kogen, Hansharo Beer, and Minoh, while food service is temporarily paused. The pub continues to operate with a calm, house-like atmosphere and limited seating.
Hop BroKanamecho's The Cat & Cask Tavern just posted its June 24 tap update, and a quiet house pub pouring four kegs is exactly my kind of place.
MugiWhat! A house-style beer pub already sounds atmospheric, and just reading a tap update makes me ready for pint number one!
Hop BroThe four-beer lineup has Shiga Kogen AfPA, Hansharo Amber Lager, Minoh Nice na Bitter, and Minoh Osaru IPA Real Ale.
MugiHold on, what does AfPA mean!? And real ale makes it sound like the other ales are fake!
Hop BroAfPA is Shiga Kogen's Africa Pale Ale, and real ale is cask-style beer served by hand pump, with softer carbonation and a gentler mouthfeel.
MugiNo way! Three hand pumps sounds like gym equipment for beer nerds, and now I kind of want to pull one!
Hop BroAnd the place also has three draft taps, plus one cask of real ale every Wednesday, so the timing changes what you get.
MugiAnd with the food menu paused, the vibe is basically: today, please focus on the beer itself.
Hop BroThey are consistent about it too: Wednesday to Saturday from 6:00 to 10:00 p.m., last beer order at 9:30, groups capped at four, and cash on delivery.
MugiI love that. A quiet drinking space like that makes me want to debate whether to start with the amber lager or Nice na Bitter!
Hop BroAt that point it's really all four sound good, right? Start lively with AfPA, then finish thoughtfully with the Osaru IPA real ale.
MugiDone. I want to go now, sit down in Kanamecho with a glass, and have one of those 'today is quietly delicious' nights!
The Cat & Cask Tavern, a one-house British-style craft beer pub in Kanamecho, Toshima, Tokyo, has announced its tap list for Wednesday, June 24. The bar describes itself as a quiet place to relax, and its Japanese craft beer program is built around three handpump taps and three draft taps.
The beers listed for the day are Shiga Kogen Africa Pale Ale (AfPA), Hansharo Beer Amber Lager (limited), Minoh Nice na Bitter (limited), and Minoh Osaru IPA Real Ale. The lineup brings together a pale ale, an amber lager, a bitter, and an IPA, giving regulars and visitors a compact but varied set of options.
The bar also notes that food service will be suspended for the time being. Opening hours are Wednesday through Saturday, 18:00 to 22:00, with beer last order at 21:30. Other house rules are also in place: groups are limited to four people per party, and payment is cash on delivery.
Another point worth noting is the real ale rotation: the real ale line changes with one cask each Wednesday. For beer fans who want to focus on fresh draft beer in a quiet setting rather than a full dining experience, this is the kind of update worth keeping in mind.
