Hop BroAt Niku to Mugi, a yakiniku stand in Hatagaya, the collaborative Meat-Clearing Lager is down to its final keg.
MugiWhat, “clearing meat” means it’s so good the plate disappears!? We need to hurry for that final keg!
Hop BroI love that energy. It’s a three-way brew by NAMI NO OTO BREWING, Takamatsu’s Saraeru, and Niku to Mugi—made for yakiniku.
MugiWow! But it says it’s a rice-koji lager. Koji makes me think of amazake!
Hop BroRice koji turns starch into sugar and can give beer a light, rounded character. In short: an easy-drinking sidekick for grilled meat!
MugiSo it cheers beside every slice of yakiniku! If it’s an easy-drinking beer, I can definitely order more kalbi!
Hop BroThe eight-tap list is strong too, with Himitsu Beer’s Kamo no Hashi Lager and Shiga Kogen Beer’s Fresh Hop IPA 2026.
MugiDoes fresh hop mean super-fresh hops? Like my feelings about yakiniku? I want to taste that hop character!
Hop BroExactly—hops used close to harvest can bring especially vivid aromas. There are lagers, IPAs, and Oni Densetsu’s Sweet Strawberry, too.
MugiLet’s start with lager for the meat, then compare an IPA and fruity beer! Check availability, and let’s drink in Hatagaya!
The final keg of an original lager
Yakiniku Stand Niku to Mugi, a beer pub in Hatagaya, Tokyo, is highlighting the last keg of its original beer, Meat-Savoring Lager. The beer was created through a collaboration between NAMI NO OTO BREWING, Takamatsu-based Saraeru, and Niku to Mugi.
Brewed with rice koji, the lager has been poured at the pub since June. The restaurant describes it as an easy-drinking beer that does not become tiring, making it a natural match for grilled meat and a beer suitable throughout a meal. The post announces that only one keg remains.
Eight beers on tap
The current list includes Mt. Fuji Ale from Fujiyama Hunter's Beer and Kamonohashi Lager from Himitsu Beer. Fresh Hop IPA 2026 from Shiga Kogen Beer brings a hop-focused option, while Cockatrice from FLORA FERMENTATION and Stopphobia from Totopia Brewery add further variety.
The lineup is rounded out by Sweet Strawberry from Onidensetsu and the newly added Migaku from Novoru Brewing. From crisp lagers to IPA and fruit beer, the selection offers several ways to pair craft beer with the pub's yakiniku-focused menu.
With its combination of grilled meat, a neighborhood beer-pub atmosphere and a rotating tap list, Niku to Mugi is a destination for drinkers who enjoy pairing beer with food. Visitors hoping to try the original Meat-Savoring Lager should check availability, as the final keg is now on tap.
