Craft Beer Server Land Updates Today's Beer in Kagurazaka, Featuring Torahachi Beer and Minami Shinshu IPA
Craft Beer Server Land in Tokyo's Kagurazaka released its 'Today's Beer' lineup for April 20. Alongside Weizen, Pilsner, Pale Ale, and IPA, the selection also spans from lemon Weizen to dark beers.
Hop BroThis Today's Beer update from the basement in Kagurazaka is pretty aggressive from Craft Beer Server Land today. Just seeing Weizen, IPA, and dark beers lined up all at once makes it fun before you even start choosing.
MugiWhoa! That broad? From white beers to black beers, it's basically a beer encyclopedia, not a fridge!
Hop BroAnd the first things that catch your eye are Hida Takayama Beer's Weizen and Beer Herun's Lemon Weizen. It's a lineup that makes it easy to start lightly, so today's setup feels relaxed and unforced.
MugiI get Weizen, but what even is Lemon Weizen? A beer that's this refreshing feels almost too much!
Hop BroIt's like soft wheat character layered with a lemon nuance. Because it has the mellow body of wheat, the nice part is that it drinks smoothly without being too sour.
MugiI see... but Yatsugatake Beer's Torahachi Beer and Isekadoya Beer's West Coast Pilsner are tempting too! When the names sound this strong, it makes me nervous about how intense they might taste.
Hop BroThat's a good reaction. West Coast Pilsner has a crisp bitterness and layers hop character onto the drinkability of a pilsner, while Torahachi Beer has enough presence to work as your first beer of the day.
MugiWait, a pilsner with hop character too? So it's like going on the attack with a gentle face?
Hop BroExactly, and the IPA lineup is strong too. You've got ISHINOMAKI HOP WORKS' Makikaze IPA, Onidensetsu Ji Beer's Shin Oni IPA, Minamishinshu Beer IPA, and even Isekadoya Beer's TDH Hazy IPA.
MugiTDH? What is that!? Those spell-like abbreviations are suddenly appearing, and the beer world is scary!
Hop BroTDH stands for Triple Dry Hopped, a brewing method that uses a lot of hops. It's a technique for bringing out a strong aroma, and with Hazy styles, you can enjoy that juicy fragrance especially well.
MugiOhhh! Then ending with something like Chichibu Beer's Nami Machi Black Ma or Gahaha Beer's porter for a dark-beer finish sounds great!
Hop BroThat's the best part. Try a few by the glass, then dig deeper with a pint, and build a tasting route in the basement of Kagurazaka.
MugiNow I'm completely craving beer! I want to go for a drink in Kagurazaka right now!

The shop is located in the Okawa Building B1F at 2-9-3 Kagurazaka, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, and its appeal lies in being able to enjoy a leisurely drink in a basement space close to the station. In this post as well, glass and pint prices are listed side by side, so it seems well suited to starting with a few beers by the glass and then deepening the experience with a pint of your favorite. A flow that begins lightly with Weizen or Lemon Weizen, moves through the bitterness of West Coast Pilsner and IPA, and ends with a dark beer is easy to put together. It is a tap list you can rely on when you want to choose one beer at a time according to your mood in Kagurazaka.
