Hop BroCraft beer kitchen Kokoro no Tsuki in Miyagawacho, Yokohama is pouring six beers on tap from 2 p.m. on August 30.
MugiWait, a Noge beer stop with six taps at lunchtime? That's absolutely trying to ruin my ability to choose!
Hop BroAnd it's a domestic-and-import mix: Garden Path Fermentation's The Twisted Branch Out, Nara Brewing's Double Swisher, and Hop Kotan Brewing's Iho and Inversion.
MugiThose names are intense! But when the article says from IPA to oddballs, what does that actually mean?
Hop BroThe easiest example is Seapine Brewing's Citra Hazy IPA. A hazy IPA is basically an IPA built to push aroma forward with that cloudy look.
MugiWhoa, what does hazy even mean here? Like, 'today's forecast is cloudy with a chance of hops'?
Hop BroClose, and honestly funnier. It means a soft, cloudy body with juicy texture and citrusy aroma coming from Citra hops.
MugiNo way! Then with Nara Brewing's Double Swisher and Odawara Garage Brewing's ju-low 2026 too, this is basically a tasting-flight paradise!
Hop BroExactly. And Kokoro no Tsuki is a beer-and-Chinese-food spot, so Chinese food pairing is a huge part of the appeal today.
MugiPairing suddenly sounds so fancy! What makes beer and Chinese food such a good match?
Hop BroThink mapo tofu or drool-worthy wontons: hop aroma and bitterness can cut through rich, spicy dishes. With steamed chicken, fried eggplant with ginger soy, and Shanghai-style noodles, it's from first pint to full meal.
MugiI'm done for. I want to start with Citra Hazy IPA and shrimp mayo and then move on to Hop Kotan after that!
Hop BroThen we finish with Iho or Inversion. A one-stop Noge session like this makes me want a beer right now.
Craft Beer Kitchen Kokorono Tsuki, a craft-beer pub in Miyakawacho, Yokohama, opened at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 30, and shared a six-beer tap list on Instagram.
Today's Tap List
- `Garden Path Fermentation` / `The Twisted Branch Out`
- `Nara Brewing` / `Double Swisher`
- `Hop Kotan Brewing` / `Iho`
- `Odawara Garage Brewing` / `ju-low 2026`
- `Seapine Brewing` / `Citra Hazy IPA`
- `Hop Kotan Brewing` / `Inversion`
The board mixes Japanese and overseas breweries, with a range that stretches from hop-forward beers to more distinctive house picks. `Citra Hazy IPA` should appeal to fans of juicy, aromatic hops, while the two Hop Kotan beers and Nara Brewing add a Japanese perspective to the lineup.
The bar presents itself as a place for craft beer and Chinese food, and the post highlights that pairing clearly. Dishes such as steamed chicken with sansho and scallion sauce, fried eggplant with ginger soy sauce, mapo tofu, Shanghai-style fried noodles, shrimp mayo, and yodare wonton give the beers plenty of support. For drinkers in the Noge area, it reads as a practical stop for both a first pint and a full meal.
