Okei Brewery Nippori posts a 12-tap lineup of house beers and guests
On July 25, Okei Brewery Nippori listed 12 taps, mixing house beers such as Arakawa Hazy Under Bridge and OKEI IPA with guest pours from REPUBREW, Otamabrewing, and Black Tide Brewing. It is a broad, beer-forward lineup for a brewpub in Higashi-Nippori, Arakawa Ward.
Hop BroNippori is seriously lively today. Okei Brewery Nippori is running 12 taps today, with house brews and guests lined up side by side, so the first pour already feels like a strategy game.
MugiWait, Okei Brewery Nippori alone has that much range? That is absolutely an indecision championship the moment you walk in!
Hop BroThe house lineup is already stacked. Arakawa HAZY Under Bridge, OKEI IPA, HELLES, Hyuganatsu Splash, and Nippori Kolsch all pull in different directions in a really clean way.
MugiHold on, HELLES and Kolsch are what exactly? Those sound less like beer styles and more like classes at wizard school!
Hop BroIn plain terms, they’re clean easy-drinking styles. HELLES leans soft and malty, while Kolsch is crisp and light, so they frame a louder Hazy really well.
MugiOhhh, then Hyuganatsu Splash sounds like a fun opener. Fruity, summery, and probably the kind of first sip that makes you grin for no reason.
Hop BroAnd the guest side is strong too. You’ve got BLUES from REPUBREW, Majonoodekakestout from Otamabrewing, and Monster Gold ver 6.0 from Black Tide Brewing, which is a pretty wild spread.
MugiWhat is this, three guest breweries in one stop? That is basically a mini festival, and my order is already taking emotional damage!
Hop BroThe food makes it worse in the best way. Chilled tomato, asparagus with anchovy mayo, wagyu tagliata, even peach sorbet, so you can build a beer-first meal from snacks to dessert. I absolutely want a glass now.
MugiSame, I’m fully sold. I want to agonize over Hazy versus OKEI IPA first, then go all the way to dessert. Tonight I want to seriously debate where to start drinking!
On July 25, Okei Brewery Nippori showed a 12-tap lineup. The house beers included `Arakawa Hazy Under Bridge`, `Transit Inn`, `Helles`, `OKEI IPA`, `Hyuganatsu Splash`, `Nippori Kölsch`, `Steam Ale`, `Ultra Arakawa Hazy Under the Bridge`, and `Megante`. Guest beers were `BLUES` from REPUBREW, `Majonoodekakestout` from Otamabrewing, and `Monster Gold ver 6.0` from Black Tide Brewing.
The mix points clearly in several directions: hazy, hop-forward pours on one side; clean lager-like beers such as Helles and Kölsch on another; and a citrus-leaning seasonal beer in the lineup as well. That makes the pub a place where a drinker can move across styles in one visit instead of settling into a single lane.
The post also highlighted a substantial food menu. It ranged from chilled tomatoes with myoga and shirasu, to asparagus with anchovy mayo, spring rolls, roasted eggplant with beef tendon meat sauce, wagyu tagliata, basil genovese pasta, caramelized figs with vanilla ice cream, and peach sorbet. In other words, the beer list is paired with dishes that can work from snacks to a fuller meal.
Okei Brewery Nippori is a brewpub in Higashi-Nippori, Arakawa Ward, Tokyo. Its appeal is straightforward: house-brewed beer at the center, guest taps as accents, and enough variety on the board to make comparative tasting part of the experience.
