KARAKURI Taps Noroshi Brewing’s "Peanuts Porter (Nitro)": Limited Porter Scented with Chiba Peanuts
At the Tokyo Kanda beer pub "KARAKURI -Craft Beer & Oden & Sake-", Noroshi Brewing’s "Peanuts Porter (Nitro)" has been tapped. It is a special flavored porter brewed to celebrate the brewery and taproom’s first anniversary, and it can be enjoyed on nitro.
Hop BroIt’s a tapping at KARAKURI in Kanda’s basement. Noroshi Brewing’s "Peanuts Porter (Nitro)" will be on from 5:00 PM to 11:00 PM on Friday, May 22.
MugiWhoa! Peanuts in a porter!? That savory Chiba aroma makes it sound like the snack is already in the glass!
Hop BroExactly, and this is a special 1st-anniversary release. It’s a seriously considered beer made to mark the brewery and taproom milestone.
MugiWhat’s a robust porter? When people say it has strong roast character, I start picturing something like toasted dark bread!
Hop BroThat’s actually pretty close. The base is a robust porter, a style that layers the roasted aroma of malt with coffee- and cacao-like depth.
MugiHuh! And then peanuts come in? That sounds like a triple layer of toastiness. Isn’t that a little too indulgent?
Hop BroThat indulgence is the fun part. Adding peanut notes creates a kind of unity, like the pairing of cacao and peanuts.
MugiWhat caught my eye too was the nitro! That means the foam is extra fine, right? It’s the thing that suddenly makes it feel fancy!
Hop BroExactly. Nitro makes the mouthfeel smoother and brings out a silky texture. That’s the nice thing about heavy dark beers too: they can still go down easily.
MugiKARAKURI has oden too, right? Just hearing oden and dark beer makes it feel like the night already won!
Hop BroRight, they have craft beer, sake, and natural wine, plus a bottle shop. In other words, it’s a place you can drop in for just one drink, or stay and settle in for the long haul.
MugiI’ve decided! I want to warm up with oden, then finish with a peanut-scented glass. Hop bro, looks like tonight we have no choice but to go out drinking!
Hop BroExactly. If you’re looking for your first drink in Kanda, a Friday reward beer and oden are the way to go.

This beer is a special flavored porter brewed to commemorate the brewery and taproom’s first anniversary. The base is a robust porter, with roasted notes and a deep richness reminiscent of coffee and cacao, layered with the savory aroma of peanuts that feels distinctly Chiba. Because KARAKURI serves it on nitro, its smooth mouthfeel should also be part of the appeal.

It also has an attached bottle shop, and it can accommodate takeout of bottles and cans, as well as draft beer, sake, and wine sold by measure.
