Mugibaru in Kamata shares a nine-beer tap list
The beer pub Mugibaru in Nishikamata, Ota Ward, Tokyo, posted a tap list covering nine beers, from XPA and W-IPA to a barrel-aged IPA and a hazy double IPA. The lineup features Ise Kadoya, Minoh, Sankt Gallen, COEDO, Yellow Monkey Brewing and DD4D.
Hop BroKamata's Mugibaru tap list is dangerously good today. Nine beers from Isekadoya, Sankt Gallen, COEDO, and more make it feel like a mini festival of Japanese craft beer.
MugiWhat! Nine beers on tap in one place? And they posted chirashi sushi too? My stomach just started drafting a plan.
Hop BroMy first-pour pick is Isekadoya Beer's Ohisama Ale. It's an XPA at 5.5%, light and easy but still bright with hop aroma, so it's a great opener.
MugiHold on, what is XPA? It sounds like a secret level you unlock after three beers.
Hop BroXPA means Extra Pale Ale. Lighter color, solid aroma, and not too bitter, so it feels craft without knocking you over.
MugiOkay, then Minoh Beer's W-IPA at 9% is not the opener, right? That's the boss battle?
Hop BroExactly. W-IPA is double-scale intensity: more hops, more alcohol, more body. And Isekadoya's Nekojima is a Hazy Double IPA, so you get soft haze and juicy fruit-like aroma.
MugiWow, Nekojima sounds dangerous already! But Sankt Gallen's Pineapple Ale being a Brut IPA? That name walked in wearing a tux.
Hop BroThat part matters. Brut IPA has a dry, crisp finish, so it snaps clean instead of lingering sweet. Then the NEXT list brings COEDO's Kyara, Yellow Monkey Brewing's barrel-aged Imperial IPA, Chou Shonan Gold, and DD4D's HAZY IPA.
MugiSo this is basically a tasting roadmap in one pub. If you go from light to heavy, the whole lineup practically drinks itself!
Hop BroAnd you can even reset with Asahi's Jukusen pilsner, or check out Kyara's IPL for that malt depth. Honestly, I want the full nine-beer tour.
MugiThen it's settled: drinks at Mugibaru. Start with Ohisama Ale, get loud with Nekojima, finish with the barrel-aged one... this article absolutely failed at making me stay home!
