Yokohama Bay Brewing’s Yokohama Front shop unveils a new tap list, including its flagship Bay Pilsner
On May 7, Yokohama Bay Brewing’s Yokohama Front shop announced a new menu. Featuring house-brewed Bay Pilsner and Bay Weiss along with yuzu beers and IPAs, the direct-run beer pub near Yokohama Station’s North West Exit is a great place to compare a wide range of pours.
Hop BroYokohama Bay Brewing’s Yokohama Front shop has put out a new menu. Centered on the flagship house-brewed staple Bay Pilsner, with Bay Weiss and 13th Anniversary Yuzu Lager on the list too, it is the kind of lineup that makes it hard to choose at first.
MugiWait, that many varieties!? Pilsner is the crisp, easy-drinking type, right? The other names already look like spells to me...!
Hop BroExactly. Pilsner is a clean, crisp lager, and Bay Pilsner is the flagship product. Since they have everything from lager to IPA, it is easy to pick one based on your mood.
MugiWhat is that supposed to mean? What is the difference between weizen and IPA? They are both beer, but now I am losing track of the beer!
Hop BroWeizen uses wheat, giving it a softer feel and a banana-like aroma. IPA emphasizes hops, bringing out bitterness and aroma, so it is the classic choice for aroma lovers.
MugiOhhh! Then Yuzu Weiss and 13th Anniversary Yuzu Lager sound like they would bring a refreshing citrus note, so a tasting comparison would be fun!
Hop BroExactly. And being on the second floor of THE YOKOHAMA FRONT near Yokohama Station’s North West Exit makes it easy for daytime drinking, which is a big plus. Since it stays open straight through from 11:30 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., it is very convenient.
MugiWait, it even has the just-right 35-seat size!? It seems like you could drop in alone, or come with friends and have a good time!
Hop BroYep. There is counter seating too, and what is interesting is that some days feature Bicycle Beer Series beers like Weekend Journey, plus guest kegs. When Pilsner Urquell is on the board too, you can travel between Yokohama and the world at the same counter.
MugiNow I really want to go! I want to toast with Bay Pilsner and then work my way through the yuzu beers and IPAs one by one.
On May 7, Yokohama Bay Brewing’s Yokohama Front shop announced a new menu. The store is a directly operated beer pub on the second floor of THE YOKOHAMA FRONT, in a location that is easy to reach from Yokohama Station’s North West Exit. It is open all day from 11:30 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., making it easy to drop in for a midday drink or an early evening pint.
The appeal of this shop is being able to enjoy Yokohama Bay Brewing’s own craft beer in a state close to fresh from the brewery. The tap lineup changes from day to day, but centered on the classic Bay Pilsner, you will find a broad selection ranging from lager to weizen to fruit beer, including Bay Weiss, Bay Dark, 13th Anniversary Yuzu Lager, German Pils, and Yuzu Weiss. For those who want to enjoy hop aroma, Old Fashion IPA and White Cat IPA are also strong contenders.
Also not to be missed are distinctive labels from the Bicycle Beer Series, such as Weekend Journey, Hill Climb, Uncle Rinne, Bunny Hop, and Freedom. On some days, the collaboration Kraftwerk West Coast Pilsner and the imported draft Pilsner Urquell are also available, making it very much a place where you can compare Yokohama local beer and guest beer at the same counter.
The interior has 35 seats, including counter seating, making it a comfortable fit for both solo drinkers and small gatherings. The food is structured to pair easily with beer, and the atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, true to a directly operated shop. It is the kind of place to keep in mind when you want to choose from direct brewery taps according to your mood around Yokohama Station.
