TBE Brewing in Ebisu posts Aug. 7 tap list with Shiga Kogen DPA and Sono Ju
TBE Brewing, a beer pub in Ebisu, Tokyo, has posted its keg lineup for Aug. 7. The list features two Shiga Kogen Beers on tap, along with sours, IPAs, a coffee IPA, and a beer from Italy.
Hop BroThis is the Ebisu story to watch today: TBE Brewing's fresh tap list is stacked. Shiga Kogen Beer's DPA and Sono Ju No.10 IPA landed at the same time, so August 7 is one of those stand-and-stare-at-the-taps days.
MugiWait, two Shiga Kogen beers at once? That's basically an event! I've heard of DPA, but Sono Ju sounds like a final boss.
Hop BroThat's the fun part. DPA leans like an easygoing pale ale, while Sono Ju No.10 IPA is a seriously hoppy IPA. You get to compare drinkability against a bigger aroma punch.
MugiHold on, what does drinkable mean? You said that way too casually. Is that just beer-speak for 'dangerously easy to keep sipping'?
Hop BroExactly, it's the glass empties itself kind of beer. Not too heavy, no rough edges, and the next sip shows up on its own. DPA is really good at that balance.
MugiOh wow, and this lineup runs from sour to coffee IPA too, right? That's such a wide range my taste buds are doing warm-up stretches.
Hop BroYep. You've got Roman Village's Tochigi Berry Berry Sour, Minoh Beer's Coffee IPA, and even CRAK Brewery's Mundaka from overseas, so the tap board is gloriously crowded today.
MugiCoffee IPA sounds like breakfast meets bar time. Is it bitter? Roasty? Citrusy? My brain just scheduled an emergency meeting.
Hop BroIt sounds chaotic, but it works. The hop aroma from the IPA meets roasted coffee notes, basically a double-threat aroma combo. And with sashimi or house-made roast pork, that gets really interesting.
MugiAnd if the pub is closed from August 9 to 11, then August 7 and 8 matter. I want to camp out in Ebisu and work my way from DPA to Sono Ju.
Hop BroThat's the right move. The upcoming beers like Muga Muchu and FaRM to YOU DDH Hazy IPA sound great too, but first I want to attack the current ten taps.
MugiDeal. Let's hit TBE Brewing and do a DPA versus Sono Ju flight, sneak in that Coffee IPA, and order way too much food while we're at it.

The food menu is equally broad, with items such as sashimi of wild Indian tuna, grape beef sirloin steak, ajillo with assorted vegetables, house-made roasted pork snack, chicken sasami cutlet with plum and shiso, fried shishito peppers, and mussels with tomato, celery, and oil pasta. It is the kind of lineup that makes TBE Brewing a practical stop for a relaxed beer session in Ebisu.
The shop is scheduled to close from Aug. 9 to 11 for a summer break, so Aug. 7 and 8 look like the best windows to visit.
