Beerbar Festa Shimokitazawa lists five Japanese craft beers on June 17
Beerbar Festa Shimokitazawa posted its June 17 tap list and evening opening notice. The lineup includes Minoh's Kozaru IPA and T.Y. Harbor's Kanpai West Coast Pilsner, with five Japanese craft beers on draft, plus late-night hours and darts.
Hop BroToday's topic is Beer Bar Festa Shimokitazawa and its June 17 tap list, and honestly it's too good not to talk about.
MugiWait, really!? A pub two minutes from the station is already dangerous enough, so what makes this one special?
Hop BroThat day they lined up five Japanese drafts: Minoh 'Kozaru IPA,' T.Y. Harbor 'Kanpai West Coast Pilsner,' and even Delayla's 'Anonymous BrewHolic Revolution.'
MugiHold on, what is a West Coast pilsner supposed to be? Is the beer served with actual ocean breeze?
Hop BroNo sea breeze included, but it's a pilsner with bigger hop aroma and a crisp finish. It has bite, but it doesn't drink heavy.
MugiOhhh! Then what about Kozaru IPA? The name sounds cute, but is it secretly a hop punch to the face?
Hop BroThat's the nice part: it has proper IPA bitterness, but it's still approachable. It's the kind of first pint that keeps the conversation rolling.
MugiAnd they also have Seya Wheat Beer from Yokohama Beer? So the gentle, easygoing option is covered too!
Hop BroExactly, and there's also a collaboration beer, Hansharo's 'Coco Farm & Winery White,' so the lineup goes way beyond just IPA, wheat, and pilsner.
MugiNo way, and some taps are already marked almost gone? I can literally see my future favorite disappearing while I hesitate.
Hop BroThey open at 6 p.m. and go until 1 a.m. on weekdays, plus they have house-made sausages and darts events, which is basically a trap in the best way.
Hop BroIt's easy to use whether you want one quick drink or a long stay, and once you see 12 taps and 40 bottles, your throat checks in before the rest of you does.
MugiThat's it, I'm sold. Let's raise a glass now and seriously debate whether to start with Kozaru IPA or the wheat beer!
Beerbar Festa Shimokitazawa, a craft-beer pub a short walk from Shimokitazawa Station, posted its June 17 service update and tap board. The bar offers 12 draft lines plus roughly 40 bottles, so it works both as a quick stop for a pint and as a place to settle in with darts.
The day’s draft lineup was all Japanese craft beer: 箕面 'こざるIPA', T.Y.ハーバー '乾杯ウエストコーストピルスナー', ディレイラ 'アノニマス ブリューホリック レボリューション', 横浜ビール '瀬谷の小麦ビール', and 反射炉ビヤ 'ココファーム&ワイナリー 白'. The selection spans IPA, pilsner, wheat beer, and collaboration-style entries, and the post notes that several were close to selling out.
The bar opens at 18:00 and stays open until 1:00 on weekdays. The post also thanked guests for the latest Beer Party gathering and announced future events, including a June 21 anniversary trio tournament, a June 18 Shimokitazawa darts exchange, and a June 19 house tournament. With house sausages and other food on hand, it is the kind of place where beer, dinner, and a game of darts fit naturally together.
