Beer Pub Neko to Azarashi in Mitaka taps three new beers, including HOPDOG
Beer Pub Neko to Azarashi announced its August 3, 17:00-23:00 service with three new taps. HOPDOG from Akita is making its first appearance at the bar, while char siu is scheduled to start service around 19:00. Potato salad and chili beans are also recommended.
Hop BroMitaka's Beer Pub Neko to Azarashi just dropped a tap list with three new kegs, and the full 10-tap lineup looks seriously good.
MugiWhat, three fresh tappings in one shot? Who's on the list?
Hop BroThe headliner is Akita's HOPDOG with Hard Cider 6.5%, making its first appearance at this pub.
MugiWait, hard cider isn't beer, right? An apple just sprinted onto the draft list!
Hop BroRight, it's sparkling apple alcohol, not beer, but the fruit-driven tang and light finish make it perfect on draft.
MugiOoh, then next to the regular beers the flavor range must be all over the place in the best way.
Hop BroExactly. Azarashi Pilsner Okawari, Shiga Kogen Pale Ale, and Sankt Gallen Amber Ale mean the classics are covered too.
MugiBut Sansho White and GION Omatsuri IPA? The name energy alone feels like a party.
Hop BroThat's the fun of it. Sansho White brings spice, Enmusubi Stout brings depth, and LIGHTLINE SaisonIPA stays dry, so aroma, bitterness, body are easy to compare.
MugiHold on, what does body mean? Are these beers secretly doing deadlifts?
Hop BroIt's the weight and fullness on your palate, and once you pair that with the fresh char siu coming out around 7 p.m., it clicks fast.
MugiWith potato salad and chili beans too, and the pub closed tomorrow, a Mitaka beer crawl sounds completely justified!
Hop BroThey're pouring from 5 to 11 tonight, so starting with HOPDOG and then fanning out into pilsner and IPA sounds like the right move.
Beer Pub Neko to Azarashi, a craft-beer-focused pub in the Mitaka Station South Exit area, shared its tap list together with its service hours for Monday, August 3, from 17:00 to 23:00. The bar is built around 10 draft lines and pairs its beer selection with food designed to match the lineup.
The day brought three new taps. The headline item is `HOPDOG/HardCider 6.5% (New!)`, which marks HOPDOG from Akita making its first appearance at the venue. It stands out as the most distinct new addition on the board.
The rest of the list spans a wide range of beer styles. There is `あざらしピルスナーおかわり` from And Beer and Mitaka Yamaneko Brewery, Shiga Kogen Beer’s `ペールエール`, and Sankt Gallen’s `アンバーエール`, giving the tap list a solid set of approachable classics for comparison.
More distinctive choices are also on deck: Beer Hearn’s `山椒ホワイト`, `縁結麦酒スタウト`, and `おろち翠2026 七冠馬ver.`, plus `GION Omatsuri IPA` from Minami-Aizu Mountain and `LIGHTLINE SaisonIPA` from Romantik-mura. Together they create a lineup that moves from crisp and easygoing to darker, more characterful beers.
On the food side, char siu is scheduled to come out fresh from around 19:00, and potato salad and chili beans are highlighted as recommended dishes. With the following day listed as a closing day, the bar also notes that food is subject to sellout. It is a practical snapshot of a small Mitaka beer pub where draft beer and food pairing remain central to the experience.
