Uchuu Brewing's "P!P!P!" Tapped at Tamsan, a Spring Pilsner Arrives
Tokyo's Tomigaya beer pub Tamsan has shared new tap information for Uchuu Brewing. This time's centerpiece is "P!P!P! (PILSNER 5%)." The post also touches on how it differs from the malt-forward "Uchuu LAGER," introducing it as a beer whose hop character really stands out.
Hop BroA new tap has opened at Tamsan, the Tomigaya beer pub, and Uchuu Brewing's "P!P!P!" has arrived. It's a spring pilsner that really fits the current season.
MugiWhoa! Just the name P!P!P! sounds so energetic already. It's like it's shouting, and now I'm getting restless too!
Hop BroBut inside, it's got real sharpness. It's a 5% pilsner with a clear finish, firm bitterness, and German hop notes of herbs and spice.
MugiHerbs and spice really come through that much in beer? Does that mean the hop character is especially strong?
Hop BroExactly. This one is built so the hop-derived aroma rises fresh and bright. It's not just about bitterness; the aroma has a clear outline, so it's a lager designed to pair easily with food.
MugiOhhh! So it's easy-drinking, but you can still enjoy the aroma properly. It sounds really great for daytime spring drinking!
Hop BroAnd the post also mentions the recent Uchuu LAGER. That one leans more malt-forward, while this one puts hops front and center, which makes the contrast interesting.
MugiThey're that different even though they're both lagers?! That's a compare-them side by side situation! If they were lined up, could I even tell the difference?
Hop BroYou should be able to. Uchuu LAGER is about malt depth, while P!P!P! is about hop definition. Even within the same style family, the brewing philosophy is crystal clear in these contrasting lineup beers.
MugiThat sounds amazing! Tamsan turns over its guest beers quickly, right? Then we'd better go early or it'll be gone before we know it!
Hop BroExactly. It's great to run into limited taps like this in Tomigaya. Today, I think I'll start with P!P!P! first, and then go looking for Uchuu LAGER too.
MugiYeah, yeah, now I really want to drink it too! I want to grab the spring pilsner first, then do a comparison tasting and grin the whole time!
In the latest post from Tamsan, a beer pub in Tomigaya, Shibuya Ward, Tokyo, new tap information for Uchuu Brewing (@uchubrewing.japan) was announced.
The beer tapped this time is "P!P!P!". Its style is pilsner, and its alcohol content is 5%. The post describes it as "perfect for the current season" and presents it as a lager with a clear, clean finish.
The tasting focus is on firm bitterness and the herbal and spicy notes that come from German hops. It is designed not only for light drinkability, but also so that the hop aroma rises with a refreshing clarity, making it a type that is easy to enjoy both with food and on its own.
The post also mentions "Uchuu LAGER", which appeared recently. That one leans into a stronger malt presence, while this P!P!P! is said to be the opposite, with hops brought to the forefront. Even within the lager family, it is a lineup where the differences in brewing philosophy become clear when you compare them side by side.
Tamsan is a beer pub in the Tomigaya area that continuously introduces guest beers. Because it is also a place with a fast turnover of new taps, if you're aiming for limited or one-off Uchuu Brewing releases, it would be best to check availability and visit early.
