Ebisu beer pub TBE Brewing has announced its September 25 keg lineup. Ten beers from breweries across Japan range from a light 3.5% ale to a robust 7.5% IPA, offering plenty of regional variety in one Tokyo taproom.
Hop BroTBE Brewing in Ebisu is pouring ten taps on September 25! A wonderfully varied lineup has arrived from eight regions of Japan.
MugiWhat? They range from 3.5% to 7.5%? How do I pick a first glass without getting totally lost?
Hop BroFor an easy start, try Kunitachi Brewery’s 3.5% Yurumi or Ushiku Brewery’s 4.5% Wonder Loss. A lower-alcohol pour is easy to pair with food.
MugiNice! But Fest Lager sounds like a party already. What is Ishinomaki’s Fest Lager like?
Hop BroIt’s a 6.0% beer from Ishinomaki Hop Works, inspired by German beer festivals. Expect a rounded malty sweetness—ideal for the first toast.
MugiOoh! And what about IPA? Just saying it makes my tongue want to yell. What exactly is that IPA hop character?
Hop BroIPA means India Pale Ale, a style that showcases hop aroma and bitterness. Think citrus-like aromas and a crisp, assertive bitter edge.
MugiNow I want one immediately! Is Shiga Kogen Beer’s Snow Monkey IPA Orange ver. basically orange juice?
Hop BroNot juice, but it’s a 6.0% IPA with a fun orange-inspired aromatic profile. Shiga Kogen also brings 5.0% DPA and the 7.5% No.10 IPA.
MugiSeven and a half percent sounds like the final boss! Ise Kadoya’s Jungle Fantasy and Nara Brewing’s Locomotion are both 6.5%, so that’s a full-bodied adventure route.
Hop BroAnd there’s sashimi, grape-fed beef shoulder steak, and tripe in tomato stew. The real joy is pairing food with draft beer from around Japan.
MugiDone! Let’s start with light Yurumi in Ebisu, then work up to IPA. Since some pours are running low, check availability, then cheers!
