Yokohama Bay Brewing Kannai Honten posts salmon fry special and 14-slot tap list
In its August 18 post, Yokohama Bay Brewing Kannai Honten announced its 4 p.m. opening and highlighted the day’s special, Salmon Fry with house-made tartar. The tap list centered on the brewery’s own beers, spanning pilsners, lagers, wheat beers, and IPAs.
Hop BroToday's Yokohama topic is Yokohama Bay Brewing Kannai Main Store; on August 18 they posted a 14-tap lineup, and the featured dish was salmon fry with house-made tartar.
MugiWhat! Fourteen taps? That's the kind of menu that makes my brain buffer... and they added salmon fry too? Totally unfair!
Hop BroIt's a brewery-run beer pub just 4 minutes from JR Kannai Station and 2 minutes from the subway, and the big draw is drinking their own beer super fresh on draft.
MugiWhoa! But Hallertau Edition means what exactly? It sounds less like beer and more like a special attack move!
Hop BroHere's the thing, Hallertau is a German hop name, and it tends to give elegant floral notes with a little spice, so it feels like an alternate expression of Bay Pilsner.
MugiOkay, got it! Then what kind of beer is Yuzu Weiss? Every time I hear "weiss," I picture somebody dressed in white!
Hop BroA weiss is a softer wheat beer, so you usually get a light fluffy texture, and with yuzu on top it turns bright and refreshing, plus it has award history too.
MugiWow, they also have Bay Dark, Sprint IPA, and Team Up IPA, so it's from pilsner to IPA all in one place... and tap 11 saying Coming soon... is such a tease!
Hop BroBay Pilsner has WORLD BEER CUP 2025 gold, and Yuzu Weiss has 2024 gold plus 2025 silver, so they basically have two flagship award winners holding down the board.
MugiAnd they're frying up thick Norwegian salmon till it's crispy, then serving it with house-made tartar? My mouth is officially in beer standby mode!
Hop BroI'd pair that salmon fry with Bay Pilsner or Tag Lager, but cutting through it with Sprint IPA would be fun too, so the pairing range is huge.
MugiIf they open at 4 p.m. and go till 11, then after work I seriously want to lock in the first glass over in Kannai today!
