Novel Craft, a craft beer pub in Setagaya’s Minami-Karasuyama neighborhood, will open at 18:00 today due to preparations. Located on the second floor of Kazama Building, the pub offers an easy stop for an after-work beer with food.

The day’s tap list includes seven beers. Yorocco Beer × Novel Craft Brewing / remix leads the collaborative selection. Novel Craft Brewing is also represented by four beers: Looper, Reloop, Tape Delay, and Dub Echo. Together, they provide an opportunity to explore several beers associated with the brewery behind the pub’s name.

The remaining taps are Pigalle Tokyo × Yorocco Beer / Stammtisch Helles and CRAFTROCK BREWING / Alternative IPA. With a Helles and an IPA included, the lineup offers different directions for the evening, from a crisp lager-style pour to a hop-forward option.

Food is part of the appeal as well. The pub is serving a five-vegetable saag chicken curry, described as a variation with a distinctly fresh, green vegetable character despite its appearance. A mini curry with house-made bread is also available. Oden and other snacks designed to pair with beer round out the menu.

Novel Craft is located at 4-13-9 Minami-Karasuyama, Setagaya, Tokyo, on the second floor of Kazama Building. The pub also has a small remaining stock of T-shirts celebrating its 12th anniversary. For drinkers looking for a varied local tap list and relaxed food pairing, the seven taps make this an appealing evening stop after 18:00.
