Beer Pub Nekotoazarashi in Mitaka updates 10 taps on Aug. 21, led by Ushitora’s new pale ale
Beer Pub Nekotoazarashi in Mitaka, a small pub about three minutes from Mitaka Station’s South Exit, posted a 10-beer tap list for Friday, Aug. 21, 17:00-23:00. The newest pour is Ushitora’s "Mayo t tara Kono Pale!", alongside beers from And Beer, Shiga Kogen, Minoh, and more.
Hop BroMitaka’s Beer Pub Neko to Azarashi just updated its taps for August 21, and the list is strong. The new keg is Ushitora’s “Mayoittara Kono Pale!” and that name alone feels like a friendly trap.
MugiWait, “Mayoittara Kono Pale!” basically solves your first-beer crisis for you! I already want to order it just from the name.
Hop BroAnd the place is only 3 minutes from Mitaka Station south exit, open 5:00 to 11:00 p.m. It’s a small counter-focused pub, so it’s perfect for comparing all 10 taps carefully.
MugiOoh, a 10-tap lineup you can actually follow glass by glass sounds so fun. The takeaway plastic cups are also very dangerous for my self-control.
Hop BroThe range is wide too, from the crisp Azarashi Pilsner Okawari to Shiga Kogen’s hazy IPA, all the way to Minoh Beer’s 9% W-IPA. It’s not a straight line, it’s a flavor ambush.
MugiHold on, what is a W-IPA!? IPA already sounds intense, so does the W mean double bitterness and double biceps?
Hop BroHonestly, that’s not far off. Imperial IPA at 9.0% means more hops, more body, and more alcohol presence, like a regular IPA that started lifting weights.
MugiThat’s amazing. A gym-trained IPA sounds way too powerful. But if they also have sour ale and stout, you could have a completely different trip depending on your mood.
Hop BroExactly. For example, Buryutto Lemon is a Brut Ale, so it finishes super dry and light, almost champagne-like. Pair that with the limited octopus with salsa sauce through the 24th and it could get out of hand fast.
MugiNo way, they’ve got octopus with salsa sauce too? That’s unfair. It’s a tiny pub, but the choices are so broad my stomach might not keep up.
Hop BroThen the smart move is to start with the new pale ale on tap, then wander into the hazy IPA or the sour if the mood hits. Places like this ruin any plan to stop at one pint.
MugiThat settles it, I want a drink right now. I want to start with “Mayoittara Kono Pale!” and end the night saying, “Wow, I never had to hesitate at all.”
