Mukuraf in Tokyo lines up summer-ready taps from VERTERE, WCB and GOODHOPS
Mukuraf, a beer pub in Tokyo's Shin-Ohashi area, shared its latest tap status and opening schedule. The lineup leans on hazy IPAs, West Coast IPA, and sessionable hop-forward beers from VERTERE, West Coast Brewing, and GOODHOPS.
Hop BroThe hot topic today is Mukuraf’s tap list in Shin-Ohashi, Tokyo. It’s packed with summer-ready IPAs from VERTERE and WCB.
MugiWhat! It’s basically a summer IPA festival. Is vacation pouring straight out of the taps?
Hop BroThe lineup is seriously stacked. VERTERE has Artemisia#3 as a Hazy DIPA, Passiflora#49 as a Hazy IPA, and Casimiroa#41 as a NEIPA.
MugiWhat even is Hazy DIPA? That sounds like a special attack move, not a drink.
Hop BroIt is a drink, relax. Cloudy and juicy is the Hazy part, and DIPA means more hop punch and a bit more alcohol.
MugiWhoa! Then WCB’s Triple Cone and Analog Glow already sound like a summer festival lineup.
Hop BroThat’s exactly the fun of it. Analog Glow is a West Coast IPA with crisp bitterness, while Instant Classic is easier to keep sipping, so even IPAs show very different sides.
MugiHold on, does Session IPA mean a beer for meetings? Because I’d definitely toast before taking notes!
Hop BroNot that kind of session. It means light and easy-drinking, so you can enjoy it longer. GOODHOPS Summer Grow and Tono IBUKI IPA sound perfect for that.
MugiAnd they even have keg beer to-go plus bottles? That’s ridiculously convenient when it’s hot out.
Hop BroThe food lineup is strong too. With horse meat yukhoe, wagyu meat sauce pasta, mackerel coconut curry, and peach rice pudding, I absolutely want a long tasting session.
MugiIf they’re on summer break from August 14 to 18, then it’s full speed to Shin-Ohashi before that. I’ll grab the peach dessert, you grab the IPA mountain, and we toast!
Tap list
Mukuraf, a beer pub in Shin-Ohashi, Koto-ku, Tokyo, shared its latest tap status. There are no new tap openings today, but bottled beer is being sold heavily and keg beer is also available for takeout. That makes the shop useful both for drinking in and for taking beer home in the heat.
The core lineup is hop-forward and IPA-heavy. VERTERE brings Artemisia#3 (Hazy DIPA), Passiflora#49 (Hazy IPA), Casimiroa#41 (NEIPA), and Fabiana#1 (Hazy Pale Ale). West Coast Brewing lists Triple Cone (Hazy IPA), Analog Glow (West Coast IPA), and Instant Classic. GOODHOPS adds Summer Grow, Tono IBUKI IPA, Pacific Lines, and Xroad, giving the board a clear IPA range.
Another set of beers includes Asahi Premium Draft Beer Jukusen, Kamado Brewery's Natsuzora, Yamorido's Chakabuki Shincha ver., GOODHOPS' HOP FARMERS, TWO RABBITS' Dr.HOPTHUMB, Shiga Kogen Beer's SNOW MONKEY IPA orange ver., and Y.MARKET BREWING's Mata Ashita. The styles span Hazy IPA, IPA, Session IPA, and Tea Saison, so the board offers a wide tasting range.
Food and hours
Food options include horse meat yukke, Wagyu meat sauce pasta, mackerel x coconut curry rice, and white peach riore with jasmine tea ice cream. It is a lineup that works both as beer snacks and as a full meal. The shop is scheduled to be closed from August 14 through 18 for summer break, then return to regular hours on the 19th, so checking the schedule before visiting is wise.
