PUB Karr puts Kyoto Brewing, FLORA FERMENTATION and Asahi on tap
PUB Karr in Kyoto's Nakagyo Ward posted its July 6 tap list, featuring Kyoto Brewing's "Shukyu 6-nichi" and "Pa Pi Pu Pe Bingsoo," FLORA FERMENTATION's "Cascara" and "Utsurobune," plus Asahi's "Maruef."
Hop BroPUB Karr has a five-tap lineup today, and it is a strong one. Rainy Monday, 6 p.m. open, records spinning, and the whole list feels built for settling in.
MugiWait, that is rainy-day perfection. White-toned room, vinyl playing, beer in hand... that is basically instant main-character energy!
Hop BroThe headliner is a Kyoto Brewing double feature: Shukyu 6-ka is a Belgian Session IPA, and Papipupepinsu leans dessert-like, inspired by Korean shaved ice.
MugiBelgian Session IPA sounds like three beers in a trench coat. Is it fancy, strong, or secretly homework?
Hop BroIt is the light body, big aroma combo. You get Belgian yeast character with citrus and tropical notes, so it stays expressive without drinking heavy.
MugiAnd Papipupepinsu has azuki and milk vibes too? That is not a beer, that is a dessert menu trying to seduce me.
Hop BroThen FLORA FERMENTATION shows up with two wildly different pours: Cascara, a dunkel built around coffee cherry, and Utsurobune, a hazy IPA pushing hop aroma up front.
MugiWhat is dunkel though? That word sounds like a miniboss, and now hazy is here too, so my brain has officially turned to foam.
Hop BroThink of it as toasty versus juicy. Dunkel brings dark-bread, roasty depth, while hazy IPA is cloudy and fruit-forward, so the side-by-side is half tasting, half field trip.
MugiThat is so unfairly good, all in one night. You can go from cozy roastiness to tropical juice mode without even changing seats.
Hop BroAnd the structure is smart because Maruefu for the finish keeps the landing smooth. After the louder beers, even that closing pint makes me want to go.
MugiSame, I want that flight now. Put me in PUB Karr with the records on, and I am drinking this list from top to bottom.
PUB Karr is a beer pub on the second floor along Haramachi-dori and Rokkaku in central Kyoto, with records in the background and a focus on craft beer and music. In its July 6 post, the bar noted that it was opening at 18:00 on a rainy Monday and shared the day's tap list.
The lineup consists of five beers. From Kyoto Brewing, the pub is pouring "Shukyu 6-nichi," a Belgian session IPA, and "Pa Pi Pu Pe Bingsoo," a dessert-leaning beer inspired by Korean shaved ice. The two beers show very different sides of the same brewery: one leans into citrus and tropical notes, while the other layers fruit, azuki, and milk-like sweetness.
FLORA FERMENTATION brings two more options: "Cascara," a coffee-cherry dunkel, and "Utsurobune," a hazy IPA with a hop-forward aroma. Together they offer a range that moves from roasted, cocoa-like depth to soft, juicy haze. Asahi's "Maruef" rounds out the list, giving the lineup a familiar, easygoing finish.
PUB Karr's appeal is the balance between individuality and comfort. It is the kind of place where you can start with a distinctive craft beer, move through a few different styles, and then settle into a classic pint while records spin in the background. On a rainy evening, that combination feels especially natural.
