Sakamichi Brewing adds two new beers to its weekend tap list
Sakamichi Brewing has shared its weekend tap list and added two new beers to the lineup. The release includes Oast House Ale, an English summer ale with citrus character, and Tanabata Pale Ale, brewer Yayoi's first recipe.
Hop BroThis weekend’s big topic is two new Sakamichi brews on the tap list. In Tachikawa, that’s not something you skip.
MugiWhat! Two new beers already has me buzzing! What are they like?
Hop BroFirst up is Oost House Ale. It’s an English summer ale with bright citrus aroma and a fresh, clean finish that feels really easy to drink.
MugiOoh! But English summer ale sounds like a picnic under a tree, not an actual flavor description!
Hop BroPut simply, it’s light British drinkability. The bitterness stays gentle, the body is crisp, and that citrusy aroma makes it perfect for warm weather.
MugiOkay, that helps! Then what about Tanabata Pale Ale? The name alone sounds dramatic!
Hop BroThat one is brewer Yayoi’s very first recipe. It layers malt richness with hop bitterness and citrus character, so you really get the brewer’s personality in the glass.
MugiNo way! Malt richness plus bitterness plus citrus all at once? That sounds like a full-on party in my mouth!
Hop BroExactly, and that’s why this is made for comparison drinking. It’s very Sakamichi Brewing: one beer shows a classic angle, the other shows a newer expression, and both make you want to hit the south-side taproom and Sakamichi North.
MugiI’m calling it now, this weekend needs a Tachikawa beer crawl! I want to start crisp with Oost House Ale and finish slow with Tanabata Pale Ale!
Hop BroThat is a perfect two-beer plan. Sakemichi Brewing says process matters as much as results, and honestly, these sound like beers you have to try on site.
Sakamichi Brewing has published its weekend tap list and added two new beers to the taproom lineup. Based in Tachikawa, the brewery is known for working across a wide range of styles, from classic beers to more modern interpretations, and this update follows that approach with an English-style summer ale and a brewer-led pale ale.
- Oast House Ale: An English summer ale with a bright citrus aroma and a clean, refreshing finish.
- Tanabata Pale Ale: Brewer Yayoi's first recipe, bringing malt depth together with hop bitterness and citrus notes.
According to the brewery's official website, Sakamichi Brewing values the process of brewing as much as the final result. It also emphasizes local ingredients and a broad style range, which fits the spirit of this release.
For beer drinkers in Tachikawa, the new beers add a straightforward reason to stop by: one beer that leans into crisp, citrusy drinkability, and another that highlights malt and hop balance through a first-time recipe. With both the south-side taproom and Sakamichi North operating in the city, the weekend lineup offers a neat excuse for a small beer crawl.
