GRILLMAN in Nagoya taps Grandline Brewing and Taros Brewing
Japan Craft Beer&Wine GRILLMAN in Nagoya’s Nishiki district opened at 11:30 a.m. on Saturday, June 27, and announced two fresh guest beers: Grandline Brewing’s Trial Brew#3 and Taros Brewing’s ARTEMIS. It is a strong reason to stop by even on a rainy Saturday.

MugiWait, Saturday day drinking with two new kegs? That's too strong. Even in the rain, I'd be power-walking there with an umbrella!
Hop BroFirst up, Grandline Brewing's hazy-style Trial Brew#3. It keeps that dense hazy body, trims the sweetness, and uses a soft bitterness to define the finish.
MugiWhoa, but define the finish of a beer? What is that, did the pint suddenly start doing push-ups?
Hop BroBasically, the hazy-style heft doesn't just fade out as sugary softness. A little bitterness tightens it up so it feels focused instead of overly juicy.
MugiOkay, so it's rich but still crisp! That sounds like the kind of first glass that makes noon feel like the smartest decision of the day.
Hop BroThen there's Taros Brewing's ARTEMIS, with blood orange and pine resin up front, pear in the middle, and caramel plus dark syrup-like richness underneath.
MugiWhat is that, an aroma traffic jam? Pine says forest, dark syrup says dessert, and my brain is switching channels too fast!
Hop BroThat's the fun part. That resin note means a green, sticky pine-like character, and with the citrus and sweet depth, it'd pair really well with GRILLMAN's grilled food.
MugiI'm finished, I need a counter-seat tasting. It sounds easy to drop in solo, and I want Trial Brew#3 first, then ARTEMIS right after.
Hop BroThat's the move. A two-beer crawl starting at lunch makes sense: open with Trial Brew#3, then let ARTEMIS bring the bigger, deeper finish.
MugiSettled. The first stop after rain has to be GRILLMAN. Just reading this made me crave a glass, and now my whole mouth is facing Nagoya!
Fresh taps for June 27
Japan Craft Beer&Wine GRILLMAN in Nagoya opened at 11:30 a.m. on Saturday, June 27, and used its Instagram post to highlight two new guest beers. The message also framed the day as a rainy Saturday that might clear later in the day.
The two beers
- `Grandline Brewing / Trial Brew#3`
A hazy beer that keeps its dense character while dialing back the sweetness and sharpening the finish with a subtle bitterness.
- `Taros Brewing / ARTEMIS`
A beer with aromas of blood orange, pine resin, and pear, followed by caramel- and black-honey-like depth on the palate.
GRILLMAN is a beer pub in the Fushimi and Marunouchi area that is known for rotating Japanese craft beer on tap. Wine and grilled dishes are also part of the draw, and the Saturday daytime opening makes it easy to plan as a first stop for lunch drinking. With both counter and table seating, it works well for a solo pint, a casual meal, or a relaxed beer-focused visit.
The post functioned both as a tap update and a reminder of the weekend opening time. For beer fans, that usually means one thing: a new keg, served early, before the day really gets going.
