Sekimachi Cellar Teases an April 11 (Sat.) Event on Instagram
The beer pub Sekimachi Cellar in Sekimachi-Higashi, Nerima, posted a teaser on Instagram ahead of Saturday, April 11. The shop features a first-floor standing-drink counter and a second-floor terrace, and its craft beer lineup changes frequently.
Hop BroYou know, Nerima's Sekimachi Cellar has put out a teaser announcement. Their Instagram post for Saturday, April 11 already gives off the vibe that something is brewing, and that's enough to tug at any beer lover's heart.
MugiWhoa! A teaser on Instagram? They're really stretching it out! I'd be gripping my phone and freezing in place, dying to know what they're going to put out!
Hop BroSekimachi Cellar is a beer pub built around a long-established liquor store along Ome-kaido. You can have a drink at the first-floor counter-drinking setup, or relax with a beer on the second-floor terrace. The whole place has a good feel.
MugiWow, a counter-drinking style spot? That sounds kind of insider-ish and cool! And with a terrace, it feels like you could drink there on a little outing.
Hop BroWhat's more, they handle more than 200 kinds of craft beer, so they're serious about it. From limited small-batch releases to regular staples, the fridge contents change fast, and that's part of what makes Sekimachi Cellar what it is.
MugiWait, if the lineup changes fast, does that mean a beer you like might be gone the next time you go? That's exciting, but my heart can't keep up!
Hop BroExactly, but that's the fun of it. Recently they had an Onidensetsu tap takeover, and Aonio Pilsner and Sweet Strawberry were on tap.
MugiWhat is that! Aonio Pilsner already sounds strong just from the name! But isn't pilsner just bitter?
Hop BroThat's what's interesting. Aonio Pilsner has an elegant finish with lingering malt sweetness, so it's not just bitterness; you also get the rounded character of the malt. Sweet Strawberry brings out a strawberry aftertaste and a light acidity, so it even has a dessert-like side.
MugiWow, a strawberry aftertaste and light acidity? That's the kind of beer that makes you want to keep talking after you drink it. If a beer has fruitiness, it feels like you're getting a little extra!
Hop BroAnd as for whether the April 11 (Sat.) post is a teaser for the next event or a follow-up, that's still part of the fun. The real skill of Sekimachi Cellar is that 'waiting to see what shows up' feeling.
MugiThis definitely makes me want to go! It's easy to drop in for a drink, and it's exciting not knowing what will be on offer. Are we basically both talking as if we're already going out to drink today?
Sekimachi Cellar is a beer pub built around a long-established liquor store along Ome-kaido. On the first floor, guests mainly enjoy draft craft beer; on the second floor, they can enjoy events and counter-drinking style service. The shop's website says it carries more than 200 kinds of craft beer from Japan and abroad, and that the refrigerator lineup, from limited small-batch releases to regular staples, changes often.
This Instagram post is a teaser-style message that says, "On the coming Saturday, April 11..." The details are brief, but the announcement leans into the appeal of waiting to see what will be served, very much in Sekimachi Cellar's style. As for how people drink there, the basic flow is to grab a drink right at the first-floor counter, or bring purchased snacks and head up to the second-floor terrace. They also offer draft beer with no cover charge, which makes it easy to stop by casually.
Beer Highlights
In a recent in-house report, a tap takeover from Onidensetsu Jiba Beer was held, and the following were served:
- Aonio Pilsner
- Sweet Strawberry
Aonio Pilsner was described as having an elegant finish with lingering malt sweetness, while Sweet Strawberry was said to be memorable for its strawberry aftertaste and light acidity. This neatly reflects the shop's strength in offering everything from staples to limited releases.
Whether the April 11 (Sat.) notice is a follow-up to such a brewery event or a different project will have to wait for the rest of the post, but Sekimachi Cellar's appeal lies in balancing the breadth of a liquor store's selection with the comfort of a beer pub. If you're a beer lover, it's worth keeping an eye on the lineup that day.
