The beer pub Mugibaru in Kamata, Tokyo, updated its beers of the day along with guidance for customers bringing dogs. The post lays out in-house etiquette while introducing labels from Hoppukotan, Sankt Gallen, Hime Beer, Uchu Brewing, COEDO, and more.
Hop BroMugibaru in Kamata posted a dog-friendly guide while also updating today's beers, so it packed in a lot of information right from the start.
MugiWait! Dogs can go in too? And it's a place with a resident shop dog? That's already ridiculously cute!
Hop BroAnd the manners are well thought out too, with instructions to wear dog diapers and use a cafe mat. It's designed so people can drink comfortably even when they bring a dog.
MugiHuh... but diapers and mats and stuff, that's a lot of dog etiquette and my head is starting to go fuzzy!
Hop BroIn short: if they walk on the floor, use dog diapers; if they go on a chair, use a cafe mat; and don't share human tableware. Those are the rules that protect both the shop and the pups.
MugiI see! And the beer name HOP IN MY HEAD catches my eye just from the title, but what does it taste like?
Hop BroIt's Hoppukotan's Double IPA at 6%. The hop punch sounds like it'll come through strong, and the lineup next to it lets you play with fruitiness through the Pineapple Ale and Iyokan Fruit Ale too.
MugiDouble IPA sounds strong... So the DDH Hazy IPA Mars is the kind that's cloudy but easy to drink?
Hop BroExactly. DDH means extra dry hopping, so the aroma really pops. Uchu's Mars is 7% and leans juicy, and the next candidates, Sirius and Seiheki, make for a really fun tap list.
MugiWhoa, if there's even fried chicken at the end, that's reason enough to drink! Why are beer and fried food such perfect justice?
Hop BroMugibaru is built around Japanese food too, so the pairing is excellent. Today you can go from first drink to finish, and it's the kind of place that makes you want to stop in even if you're not bringing a dog.
MugiTotally, I feel like I want to raise a glass in Kamata now! Let's start with HOP IN MY HEAD, then fried chicken, and then another beer... that's the flow!

The post calls for wearing dog diapers when letting dogs walk on the floor, using a cafe mat when placing them on chairs, and also asks guests not to place dog bowls on the floor or share human tableware.

As the next rotation candidates, Uchu Brewing's "Sirius" (Hazy IPA, 7%) and COEDO's "Seiheki" (Cold IPA, 5.5%) were also introduced.
On the food side, the post was accompanied by fried chicken, making it clear that the pairing was chosen with beer in mind.
