Evolve Beer&Kitchen opens Hop Legends, with 11 taps including Minoh Beer
The Mukojima beer pub shared its June 7 tap list. West Coast Brewing and Onidensetsu's Hazy Double IPA Hop Legends is now pouring, alongside Minoh Beer, NAMACHAん BREWING, Novoru Brewing, and other familiar names.
Hop BroToday I want to talk about Hop Legends on tap at Evolve Beer&Kitchen near Tokyo Skytree.
MugiWait, what! A pub in Mukojima dropped that news, and with 11 taps in one lineup? That's way too much temptation.
Hop BroThe headliner is West Coast Brewing × Oni Densetsu's Hazy Double IPA, a collab built around juicy flavor and a thick hop presence.
MugiHold on, Hazy Double IPA sounds less like beer and more like a magic spell.
Hop BroIn simple terms, it's a cloudy stronger IPA. Big aroma, softer texture, and a fuller, heavier feel in the glass.
MugiWhat is that! So it looks friendly but sneaks up on you... and now that hop intensity has me curious.
Hop BroAnd Minoh Beer shows up strong too. There are four Minoh pours: Peach Weizen, Yuzu White, Nice Bitter, and Barrel Aged Imperial Stout.
MugiFrom peach to stout? That's a wild range. Also, does barrel aged mean the serious grown-up stuff from a cask?
Hop BroExactly. It's a barrel-rested dark beer, so you get more depth and roast. Plus there's Kin-Oni Pale Ale on nitro and a Brut Pale Ale version from NAMACHA'n BREWING.
MugiAnd the food is salt-koji grilled amberjack, drool-worthy boiled dumplings, and red hot chicken curry... spiced food with beer sounds dangerously good.
Hop BroCompletely. There's also an Okinawa FOOD Fair starting June 11, but before that I want a pint in Mukojima and I want to start with Hop Legends.
MugiDeal! Hop Legends first, then Peach Weizen or the stout to finish, because this is a perfect tasting flight waiting to happen.

Minoh Beer appears in four slots, giving the list a strong core of familiar styles, while the nitro Pale Ale, the Brut Pale Ale, and the West Coast IPA add a more hop-driven edge. The kitchen keeps pace with beer: salted-grain grilled tuna, yodare-style water dumplings, fried chicken skin with ponzu, and red-hot chicken curry are all on the board. The pub's spice-friendly food program makes it easy to build a proper beer-and-food session, and an Okinawa Food Fair is set to begin on June 11 after the shop's days off.
