Beer Pub Neko to Azarashi posts 10-tap list for Aug. 2, led by Ajarashi Pilsner O-kawari
Mitaka's Beer Pub Neko to Azarashi announced a 10-tap lineup for Sunday, Aug. 2, from 3:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., alongside an ICCHY'S Kitchen food pop-up. The board ranges from a pilsner collaboration to IPAs, saisons, stouts, and more.
Hop BroMitaka's Beer Pub Neko to Azarashi has a 10-tap lineup today, and it's a strong one. They're open on Sunday, August 2 from 3:00 to 10:00 p.m., with And Beer x Mitaka Yamaneko Brewery's "Azarashi Pilsner Oka wari" leading the board.
MugiWait, Azarashi Pilsner Oka wari is such a cute name! It's basically telling me to order a second pint before I've even had the first!
Hop BroExactly. And at Pilsner, 5.5% ABV, it sounds crisp and easy to drink but still satisfying, which makes perfect sense for the first tap.
MugiOkay, but easy to drink means what, exactly? Not "tastes like water," right?!
Hop BroRight, not that. A pilsner's clean snap is that quick, tidy finish that disappears fast and makes you want another sip. And Beer Herun's "Shinjiko MOON" is a weizenbock with honey, so you'd expect banana-like notes and a rounder sweetness.
MugiWhat even is a weizenbock with honey? That sounds less like a beer and more like a wizard's dessert spell!
Hop BroThat's the fun of this list. "Enmusubi Bakushu Stout" is a Milk Stout, "Orochi Midori 2026 Shichikanba ver." is a 10.5% heavyweight, and then you've got pale ale, IPA, and more, so the range is seriously wide.
MugiThat flavor range is wild! So where should a beginner start before I accidentally jump straight into boss-battle beer?
Hop BroI'd open with Azarashi Pilsner Oka wari, then maybe Romanchikku Mura's LIGHTLINE SaisonIPA at 3.8%, or BLUE MAGIC's "Taiwa N Beer" if you like tart beer. A dry saison really pulls food with it, so it should work great with ICCHY'S Kitchen's eggplant gyoza or dashimaki tamago.
MugiAnd it's à la carte food, easy to pair with sake too, and you can call ahead if it's busy? That's a drink-and-eat loop I completely support. I want at least two rounds tonight!
Beer Pub Neko to Azarashi announced service for Sunday, Aug. 2, from 3:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., with a food pop-up from ICCHY's Kitchen to kick off the day. The Mitaka beer pub is serving beer and Japanese sake in an a la carte format, and guests who are worried about crowding can call ahead to check the situation.
The headliner is And Beer x Mitaka Yamaneko Brewery's "Ajarashi Pilsner O-kawari" (Pilsner, 5.5%). From there, the list moves through Beer Hearn's "Shinji-ko MOON" (weizenbock with honey, 8.5%), "Enmusubi Beer Stout" (milk stout, 5.5%), and "Orochi Midori 2026 Shichikanba ver." (10.5%), giving the board real range.
Other pours include Shiga Kogen Beer's "Pale Ale" (5.0%), BLUE MAGIC's "TaiwaN Beer" (fruit and spice sour ale, 5.0%), Daisen G Beer's "India Pale Saison" (5.5%), Minami Aizu Mountain's "GION Omatsuri IPA" (6.0%), Sankt Gallen's "Amber Ale" (5.0%), and Romantick Village's "LIGHTLINE SaisonIPA" (3.8%). Taken together, the lineup covers crisp lager character, hop-forward IPAs, saison-driven lift, stout depth, and fruit-spice acidity in one visit.
The food note mentions eggplant gyoza, hiyayakko, and dashimaki tamago, so the tap list is clearly built for pairing. It is the kind of board that rewards a slower pace, especially for drinkers who want to move from lighter beers into stronger, more expressive pours over the course of the evening.
