BEER HUNTING URAWA adds Shiga Kogen Beer’s "from scratch" on Aug. 6
BEER HUNTING URAWA in Kita-Urawa shared its lineup for Thursday, August 6, from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. The new pour is Shiga Kogen Beer’s "from scratch / a blonde ale," alongside house beers and real ales.
Hop BroBEER HUNTING URAWA in Kita-Urawa has a fresh Shiga Kogen tapping today. On August 6, they're opening from scratch / a blonde ale as the new keg.
MugiWait, that name from scratch already sounds cool! What kind of beer is it?
Hop BroStyle-wise, it's a light blonde ale with an easy, gentle drinkability. The hops do not come in too loud, so it works really well as a first pint.
MugiWhoa, but blonde beer still sounds like we're talking about hair color. I am a little lost here!
Hop BroIn simple terms, it means soft color and flavor. You get a mellow malt profile, and the pub even suggests pairing it with a lasagna loaded with eggplant.
MugiThat sounds dangerous in the best way. Eggplant lasagna pairing basically plans my whole dinner for me.
Hop BroAnd the tap list gets deeper, because they also have real ale from U.B.P BREWERY. URAWA CITY ALE and Oni Densetsu's Kin-Oni Pale Ale SP Real ver. are being poured by hand pump.
MugiWhat is that! Hand-pump pouring sounds different from a normal tap. Do you have to do bicep curls before serving it?
Hop BroA little, maybe, but the point is softer mouthfeel in the glass. It avoids forcing in too much carbonation, so the beer feels smoother and easier to drink.
MugiOkay, wow. With house beers like Kick Off Pils, Saihaku, and OWN GOAL IPA, plus Miyazaki Hideji's lemony Session Hazy IPA, Daisen G Beer's Weizenbock, and KANKIKU BREWERY's Ifu Dodo, that's basically pick-your-mood drinking.
Hop BroExactly. It is a wide-swing tap lineup from light to rich. I'd start with from scratch, then drift into Shiga Kogen IPA or Yamorido's Gogo no Stout for a side-by-side.
MugiThat is perfect. Tonight's first-pint plan is officially set. If they're pouring from 5:00 to 11:00 p.m., I absolutely want to get to BEER HUNTING URAWA and drink.

The headline addition is Shiga Kogen Beer’s "from scratch / a blonde ale". The bar notes it alongside a lasagna special built around eggplant, which makes the lighter blonde-ale profile an easy pairing to imagine. If you want to stay within the same brewery, Shiga Kogen Beer’s "IPA" or Yamamorido’s "Afternoon Stout" would make a natural comparison.
The tap list is broad. Real ale pours include U.B.P BREWERY’s "URAWA CITY ALE" and Onidensetsu’s "KONKI Pale Ale SP Real Ver." The house-beer section also features "Kick Off Pils," "Saishiro," and "OWN GOAL IPA," giving the bar a strong local core.
Guest beers cover several styles: Miyazaki Hideji Beer’s "Nichinan Lemon Fresh-Squeezed Session Hazy IPA," Daisen G Beer’s "Weizenbock," and KANKIKU BREWERY’s "Ibudoudou." From blonde ale to hazy IPA, lager, and stout, the lineup offers a clear range for beer-focused visits.
