MugiWhat! A secret dark beer? That name alone makes me want to sprint to the taproom!
Hop BroThat’s the fun part. BUZZED LAMB BREWING is a brewery and taproom in old-school Yanaka, and they keep sending out house-brewed pours from the neighborhood.
MugiBut porter style means rich and roasty in my head, right? And now they’re adding jasmine?
Hop BroThat’s where it gets clever. The style is Porter w/ Jasmin, and they kept the roast really gentle so the floral aroma can lead.
MugiNo way! A dark beer that’s floral and breezy? That contrast is doing a lot!
Hop BroAnd it’s 6.0% ABV, but instead of feeling heavy, it sounds built to be easy to finish from first sip to last.
MugiHold on, what is pH 4.27 supposed to mean? Why did this beer suddenly become science class!?
Hop BroRoughly speaking, pH affects how acidity and texture come across, so it’s a clue for shaping the flavor outline of the beer.
MugiOkay, got it! So this isn’t a dark beer that punches you, it’s aiming for an easy-drinking dark instead!
Hop BroExactly. And calling it a newly tapped secret black beer is just unfair. I can already picture a pint in Yanaka.
MugiA jasmine-scented porter is way too tempting. I want a glass now, and don’t you dare sneak the first sip!
BUZZED LAMB BREWING is a brewery and taproom in Yanaka, Taito-ku, Tokyo. From its base in a historic downtown neighborhood, the brewery continues to release its own beers on site.
The latest beer highlighted on Instagram is “Jasmine Potter.” As the name suggests, it is a porter brewed with jasmine. The posted specs are:

Porter is a classic dark beer style that originated in 18th-century England. In this version, BUZZED LAMB BREWING added jasmine to bring out a bright, floral aroma while keeping the roasty character deliberately restrained. The result is a dark beer designed to stay approachable from the first sip to the last.
The brewery described it as a “secret dark beer” now on tap, and positioned it as a refreshing option for summer drinking. For a brewery rooted in Yanaka, this release shows a thoughtful take on a traditional style, with a floral accent that should appeal to drinkers looking for something familiar but a little different.
