Tap update


Kokage Sakaba, a beer pub in Jiyugaoka, has tapped Monster Gold from Black Tide Brewing. In the Instagram post, the beer is introduced as a refreshing pint that suits hot days, making it an easy choice for the late-summer drinking season.

What to drink with it


The guest beer on this update is Black Tide Brewing’s Monster Gold. The pub’s caption positions it as a clean, refreshing pour rather than a heavy, slow-sipping beer. That makes it a good fit for a casual stop-in pint, especially when you want something lively and seasonally appropriate.

The day’s specials include teriyaki shiso tsukune and shrimp cream croquette. That kind of food lineup gives drinkers a few different ways to pair the beer, whether you want a savory bite to go with the pint or a lighter snack between glasses. It is the sort of menu that supports beer-first pub drinking without overcomplicating the experience.
