Novel Craft posts seven-beer tap list and green curry-style spice curry for 18:00 opening
Novel Craft, a beer pub in Minamikarasuyama, Setagaya, announced an 18:00 opening together with a seven-beer tap list. The lineup includes Kemkur, Ruse Brewing, Falo Brewing, and several Novel Craft Brewing beers, alongside a green curry-style spice curry.
Hop BroTonight's headline is Novel Craft's seven-tap lineup. They open at 6 p.m., and the list runs from Kemkur's Coolship Pils to their own house brews.
MugiWait, a 6 p.m. opening with that kind of list? I'm getting restless before I've even picked my first pint!
Hop BroThe eye-catchers are Coolship Pils and Ruse Brewing's Glass Shadows IPA. You start crisp with a pilsner, then let the IPA bring the hop punch.
MugiHold on, coolship? What's that supposed to be? It sounds less like beer and more like a secret spaceship!
Hop BroIt's basically a shallow cooling vessel for hot wort. Simple version: it helps shape character in the beer, and this pils sounds like an easy, snappy first pour.
MugiOooh, so I warm up with the pils, then dive into Glass Shadows IPA for the hop blast? My mouth is already stretching like it's game day!
Hop BroAfter that you've got Falo Brewing's Ophelia, Cave D'occi x Novel Craft's Reflection, plus Novel Craft Brewing's Sweep, Looper, and Down Tempo. It's basically a tasting paradise with guest taps and house beer side by side.
MugiSweep, Looper, Down Tempo... that's a DJ setlist vibe if I've ever heard one. I order a beer and suddenly I'm headlining a club night!
Hop BroAnd the food is no side act. The star is a green curry-style spice curry with green chili, coconut milk, and fish sauce, plus a snack curry with house-made bread.
MugiThat is dangerously complete... from pils to curry is such a perfect move! It even sounds like a place for a proper meal night.
Hop BroExactly, the first-pint progression is too clean to ignore. I'd start with Coolship Pils, then chase Reflection or Down Tempo.
MugiI'm locking in the winning route: Glass Shadows IPA and that curry. After reading this, I straight-up want to go drink at Novel Craft tonight.
Novel Craft, a beer pub in Minamikarasuyama, Setagaya, shared its opening notice and tap list for the day. Although the owner was away for a meeting at Yorocco Oono, the bar said it would open as usual from 18:00. For food, the bar also prepared a green curry-style spice curry and an accompanying snack curry served with house-made bread.
Tap List

- Ruse Brewing / Glass Shadows IPA
- Falo Brewing / Ophelia
- Cave D'occi × Novel Craft / Reflection

The lineup is anchored by `Coolship Pils`, a pilsner, and `Glass Shadows IPA`, which makes the style clear from the name. It is followed by `Ophelia` and the collaboration beer `Reflection`, then three Novel Craft Brewing releases: `Sweep`, `Looper`, and `Down Tempo`. The mix of guest beers, a collaboration, and house beers makes for a tap list that invites comparison and easy tasting across styles.
On the food side, the green curry-style spice curry is described as combining the heat of green chilies with coconut milk and nam pla. With the snack curry also available, the bar looks suited both to a quick drink and to a fuller evening meal. If you are starting with one beer in Minamikarasuyama, `Coolship Pils` is the natural place to begin before moving on to the IPA and the house beers.
