TBE Brewing is a beer pub on the 2nd floor of the Shinbori Guitar Building in Ebisu Minami. It has a relaxed, tucked-away feel with counter seating, making it an easy place to settle in for a beer in Ebisu.

The Aug. 12 keg lineup is led by Shiga Kogen Beer’s "DPA" and "Sono Juu No.10 IPA." The rest of the current board includes Romantica Mura’s "Tochigi Berry Berry Sour," CRAK Brewery’s "Mundaka," Black Tide’s "#499 Summer Loop," Ushiku Brewing’s "Gohobi," Hino Brewing’s "Zutto Yare IPA" and "Dont Yare IPA," and Minoh Beer’s "Osaru IPA" and "Coffee IPA." The post notes that stock is running low on some of these beers, so timing matters.

The next tap beers are also listed: Ishinomaki Hop Works’ "4 in LOVE," Hop Dog’s "FaRM to YOU DDH Hazy IPA," and Shiga Kogen Beer’s "Muga Muchu." The mix makes it easy to plan a tasting route, with IPAs at the core and a sour plus a Hazy IPA adding variety.

Food options include grape beef shoulder steak, assorted vegetable ajillo with baguette, house-made char siu, crispy chicken tender cutlet with plum and shiso, fried Manganji peppers, and an oil pasta with mussels, tomato, and celery. It is a lineup that pairs naturally with the beers on tap.
