Craft Beer 2mugi introduces "Tsumugi", "Akizuki", and more in May draft beers
The Akihabara beer pub "Craft Beer 2mugi" has published a post introducing its May tap list. A lineup of draft beers handpicked by the owner includes KUNITACHI BREWERY's "Tsumugi", Yorocco Beer's "Akizuki", and Mugi Zakkoku Kobo Microbrewery's "Zakkoku Weizen".
Hop BroThe Akihabara beer pub Craft Beer 2mugi has rolled out its May draft lineup. When KUNITACHI BREWERY's "Tsumugi" and Yorocco Beer's "Akizuki" are on the board, you can't help wondering what this month's lineup looks like.
MugiWait, this is a place to go see the kegs that are actually on tap!? Instead of carefully choosing from a menu, it feels like drinking the moment you meet it. I'm so excited!
Hop BroExactly. Rather than chasing a fixed menu, this is an ichigo ichie, once-in-a-lifetime kind of place where the next beer comes in as soon as a keg kicks. A label like Mugi Zakkoku Kobo Microbrewery's "Zakkoku Weizen" is the kind of thing you enjoy on the spot for its individuality.
MugiWhat is that! Weizen sounds cute, but what is it? It feels fluffy, but also kind of German!
Hop BroWeizen is a beer style made with wheat, so it tends to have a soft mouthfeel and aroma. So it's easiest to understand "Zakkoku Weizen" as a wheat-based style that lets you enjoy the grain's character.
MugiWow! And they even have Inkhorn Brewing's "Robin #2" too. Their taste in selection is seriously refined. The owner must really love beer!
Hop BroExactly. The owner, Mr. Yoshida, is a Germany-certified beer sommelier, and he is particular about how the kegs are connected. And with Baeren Brewery's "Classic" visible as the next candidate for rotation, you can look forward to the next pour too.
MugiA counter with the warmth of hinoki cypress, and they even use German-made glasses depending on the beer? That's basically a beer VIP room! The aroma and finish must be insanely good!
Hop BroThat's right. Since the impression changes with the pour and the glass, even the same beer shows a different face. And with homemade roast ham made from salt-koji pork and soupless tantanmen on top of that, it's reassuring that the food is strong too.
MugiWait, they even do bottle shop sales and growler takeout!? So you can keep drinking at home too, making it good twice over!
Hop BroExactly. If you want to carefully drink what's on tap right now in Akihabara, it's a perfect match. All right, today let's go with the mindset of chasing draft beer, just the two of us.
MugiLet's go! First "Tsumugi", then "Akizuki", and finally "Zakkoku Weizen" for a triple round of toasts!
May Tap List
Akihabara's "Craft Beer 2mugi" has released a reel introducing its May draft beer lineup.

In addition, Baeren Brewery's "Classic (Baeren Classic)" was also shown as a candidate for the next rotation.
