BEER MARROW in Kichijoji Highlights DD4D's Mag Mag and BLACK TIDE's Full Power
In a July 2 post, BEER MARROW in Kichijoji noted that DD4D BREWING's sour IPA Mag Mag was down to the last few pours. The bar also added BLACK TIDE BREWING's Full Power and DD4D BREWING's ALTERING to the lineup.
Hop BroKichijoji's BEER MARROW has a seriously good tap update for early July. Mag Mag is almost gone, and two fresh pours just joined the lineup.
MugiWhat! A place one minute from the station where you can watch trains and still get a tap alert like that? A fourth-floor beer pub sounds dangerously easy to 'accidentally' visit!
Hop BroFirst up is DD4D BREWING's Sour IPA Mag Mag. It's a collab tied to the film 'Magamaga Onna,' with sweet vanilla, coconut, and herbal notes before a firm tart kick lands.
MugiWhoa, okay, but what is a Sour IPA? Is it sour? Is it IPA? Are those two styles fighting in the same glass?
Hop BroThat's the fun part. That bright tartness gets layered onto IPA-style hop aroma and body, so it feels almost like a citrus dessert that somehow learned about hops.
MugiNow I want it already! And the sticker is almost gone too? Maximum collab energy. That's not just a beer, that's a collectible trap.
Hop BroThen there's BLACK TIDE BREWING's Full Power on fresh tap. It's a Hazy IPA at just 4.0% ABV, but it starts sweet and fruity, then rolls into dankness and bitterness.
MugiHold on, what does dank mean here? That sounds less like beer jargon and more like a final boss term.
Hop BroThink of it as deep green aroma. A kind of resinous, grassy intensity. Full Power uses that to feel satisfying even with the lower ABV.
MugiThat is wildly efficient beer design. So DD4D's ALTERING is a Golden Ale... does that mean it's the easygoing one?
Hop BroPretty much. Floral honey-like notes sit on top of a solid malt character, it's 5.0% ABV, and it's modeled after Kamen Rider Agito, so it has a classic feel with some playful flair.
MugiWatching the view, waking up with Mag Mag's acidity, nodding seriously at Full Power, then settling in with ALTERING... my July detour is set. I want this tonight.
Hop BroThat's the route. A train-view pint with that lineup sounds ideal, and with Mag Mag running low, BEER MARROW suddenly feels very urgent.
BEER MARROW is a beer pub on the 4th floor of the Kawata Building, about a one-minute walk from Kichijoji Station. The location, set along the tracks, is known for its train-facing view, making it a place where guests can settle in for a slower beer-focused evening.
The standout in this update is Mag Mag, which the bar said was down to the last few pours. It is a Sour IPA from DD4D BREWING and is known as a collaboration beer tied to the film Mag Mag. The beer leans on sweet aromas reminiscent of vanilla, coconut, and herbs, backed by a clear acidic edge.
A new tap, Full Power from BLACK TIDE BREWING, is a Hazy IPA at 4.0% ABV. It was introduced as a beer created for the Kesennuma Beer Festival, with fruity aroma up front, followed by dank notes, firm bitterness, and enough body to keep the beer interesting without becoming heavy.
The other new addition is ALTERING, a Golden Ale from DD4D BREWING at 5.0% ABV. Built around a classic style, it is described with floral and honey-like hop character, plus a grainy malt presence that gives the beer a more defined, traditional profile.
BEER MARROW is the kind of bar that rewards a quiet stop rather than a rushed visit. For beer drinkers tracking tap changes in Kichijoji, this update offers a clear snapshot of what is pouring now and what may disappear soon.
