And Beer Koenji opens Oatmeal Stout on July 9
And Beer Koenji Taproom posted its July 9 schedule and introduced an oatmeal stout that was tapped earlier this week. The update also highlighted limited desserts, salmon biryani, all-day hours, and takeaway options.
Hop BroLet’s start with Koenji today. AND BEER Koenji is putting a freshly tapped oatmeal stout in the spotlight on July 9.
MugiWait, oatmeal stout sounds like breakfast. How is that a beer?!
Hop BroIt’s very much a beer. The style is stout, but oats give it a lighter finish, so it sounds like something you could crush as your first pint.
MugiNo way! I always thought stout meant super heavy and dark. My whole black beer stereotype is collapsing right now!
Hop BroThat’s the fun part. Light here means body and texture, not no flavor. You still get roast, just without that thick, exhausting weight.
MugiOkay, so it’s dark but still easygoing! And they made an orange Basque cheesecake for it too? Dessert is absolutely showing off.
Hop BroExactly, and that pairing makes sense. The stout’s roast can play with citrus, and the oatmeal cookie with dates and walnuts adds another toasted layer.
MugiThat suddenly sounds very classy. But I know myself, I’d freeze deciding between drinking there and taking some home. How serious is their takeout setup?
Hop BroPretty serious. The taproom runs 11:30 to 22:00, beer takeout starts at 9:30, and they do bottles, PET bottles, plastic cups, and growler fills too.
MugiHold on, growler fills sounds intense, but to me it still sounds like wizard vocabulary!
Hop BroIt just means they fill a reusable bottle for takeaway. And with salmon biryani, curry, and Uber Eats in the mix, it covers lunch through dinner without breaking a sweat.
MugiA pint at the pub, takeaway for later, and food to match the whole ride? That’s too strong. Now I really want to toast at AND BEER tonight!
A taproom stop in Koenji with all-day service
On Thursday, July 9, And Beer Koenji Taproom announced all-day service from 11:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Beer takeaway is available from 9:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., with options including bottles, PET bottles, plastic cups, and growlers. As a brewpub in Koenji, it works both as a place to sit down for a pint and as a spot to pick up beer to go.
The main beer mentioned in the post is the Oatmeal Stout, which had been tapped earlier in the week. The brewery described it as a lighter stout that goes down easily even as a first drink of the day. To match it, the kitchen also baked orange basque cheesecake and oatmeal cookies with dates and walnuts. It is a straightforward pairing approach that lets the beer and desserts play off one another without overcomplicating the menu.
Food service also includes salmon biryani. In addition to dine-in service, the shop offers takeaway for curry, snacks, and soft drinks, plus Uber Eats delivery. Reservations are accepted by phone or through the official LINE account, which makes it easy to drop in for lunch, an afternoon pint, or a later meal.
And Beer is a brewpub located under the railway tracks in north Koenji, Suginami. Its mix of house beer and spice-driven food keeps the place flexible: beer-first, food-first, or simply somewhere to stop in and see what is on tap that day.
