If you follow craft beer in the Ikebukuro area, one place worth watching is Beer Pub Camden Ikebukuro East Exit for the speed of its tap updates. In this post, the shop clearly announced that its weekend hours would be "open from 12 noon," while also announcing Keyphobia from the Aichi brewery Totopia as that day’s new tap.

The fact that it shares same-day information in the form of "draft beer breaking news" is a major advantage for drinkers. It makes it easy to decide whether to stop by, whether you’re specifically looking for a certain beer or just want to discover something new on the spot. In particular, weekend daytime hours are a great fit for people who want to enjoy a drink slowly away from the busier evening rush.

The shop is located on the 2nd floor of Tohkoma Building, 1-7-2 Higashi-Ikebukuro, Toshima-ku, Tokyo. Its easy access from Ikebukuro Station’s East Exit is another plus, making it easy to drop in while shopping or eating nearby. As a beer pub, it suits the kind of visit where you follow the tap changes and enjoy the lineup as it evolves from one moment to the next.

This time, the highlight is Totopia’s "Keyphobia". If you’re interested, it seems best to check the latest draft beer information and aim for your first drink early in the weekend.
