Hop BroCATARATAS BOTTLE SHOP, about two minutes from Shibuya Station, has received two contrasting beers from Ehime’s DD4D BREWING.
MugiWhoa, Ehime beer in Shibuya? That sounds like a little beer trip!
Hop BroFirst up is Easy Walker, an Iyokan Lager made with Ehime-grown iyokan citrus: a bright citrus lager.
MugiDoes that mean it tastes sweet like orange juice? I’m curious about that citrus character!
Hop BroIt is not sweet-forward. Fresh iyokan aroma and a hint of tropical fruit lead into a clean finish. At 4.5% ABV, it’s ideal for a first glass.
MugiNice! I want to sip it after walking around town. That crisp refreshment sounds perfect!
Hop BroThe other is Time After Thyme, an IPA layering kawachi bankan, lemon, lime, and thyme: an herb-kissed IPA.
MugiThyme!? Are we drinking time itself? You mean the culinary herb, right?
Hop BroExactly—thyme the herb, not time on a clock! Its cool herbal aroma lifts the citrus with a refreshing accent.
MugiThat suddenly sounds so fancy! At 7.0% ABV and 25 IBU, it’s for slowly savoring aroma, isn’t it?
Hop BroYou got it. Comparing Easy Walker’s easygoing profile with Time After Thyme’s aromatics reveals the joy of tasting side by side.
MugiLet’s pick bottles at CATARATAS BOTTLE SHOP and go from iyokan to IPA! We should check availability and head over!
CATARATAS BOTTLE SHOP, a beer pub located in Sakuraoka, Shibuya, is introducing two beers from DD4D BREWING, a craft brewery based in Matsuyama, Ehime.
The lineup includes Easy Walker, an Iyokan Lager, and Time After Thyme, a Citrus and Spice IPA.
Easy Walker is 4.5% ABV, 30 IBU, and served in a 350ml format. It combines fresh iyokan citrus aromas with subtle tropical notes. The beer is light, crisp, and clean, with a refreshing finish that makes it an approachable choice for a first pour.
Time After Thyme is 7.0% ABV, 25 IBU, and also served in 350ml. Bright aromas of kawachi-bankan citrus, lemon, and lime are paired with the cooling character of thyme. A gentle sweetness and crisp finish give the beer a refreshing profile while allowing its citrus and herbal notes to remain distinctive.
Together, the two beers offer a contrast between a light, citrus-led lager and a more aromatic IPA with herbal accents. CATARATAS BOTTLE SHOP is located about a two-minute walk from Shibuya Station and offers a selection of craft beer alongside Japanese sake and coffee.
