Sakura Taps, June 1 Service Guide: 8 Taps Including "Yoshidamachi Helles 2026"
Sakura Taps will be open on June 1 from 3:00 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. While switching over to the early-June SakuraTaps Music playlist, the Yokohama Yoshidamachi second-floor venue offers craft beer across eight taps.
Hop BroOn June 1, Sakura Taps is running 8 taps on the second floor in Yokohama's Yoshidamachi. It opens at 3:00 p.m. and closes at 11:30 p.m., and just looking at the tap list is already fun.
MugiWhat, eight kinds on tap!? That's enough to make my eyes sparkle, but I might collapse trying to decide where to start!
Hop BroAnd the shop is also updating SakuraTaps Music, switching over to the early-June playlist. It's streamed on YouTube and Spotify, and the second-floor spot on Noraneko Street gives it that relaxed, one-more-pint kind of atmosphere.
MugiHuh! But what is Yoshidamachi Helles anyway? I can't tell if that's a place name or a spell!
Hop BroThat's a Helles lager bearing the shop's name. It's a German-style pale lager with gentle malt sweetness and a crisp finish, and because it's a collaboration between Sakura Taps and Numazu Craft, it has a nice local feel too.
MugiOhhh! Then Celebration Lager sounds interesting too, and it feels like a party or celebration!
Hop BroExactly. Once you add a fruit-forward beer like Fruit Life, the whole lineup opens up. It has Kyoto Brewing's playful character, but the drink is still very well balanced, so it's easy to move on to the next glass.
MugiWhoa, they even have STEREO and IPA!? Your explanation, Hop, just suddenly made the sound feel three-dimensional!
Hop BroNice reaction. The flow of checking the hop profile with STARLIGHT IPA and finishing with Dr. Dankness or Hometown Stout is strong too. Being able to compare lager, IPA, and stout in one place is one of the joys of a beer pub.
MugiWow, it feels like easy for first-time visitors to get in! I'll look at the tap list first, and I think I'd start with the Helles or a lager!
Hop BroThat's the way to go. Starting with one leisurely pint and then branching out to IPA or stout depending on your mood is probably the right move. Honestly, it's the kind of place that makes you want to go drink there right now.
MugiSo true! I want to say that my first pint of June is decided at Sakura Taps!
