And Beer Koenji Taproom in Koenji, Tokyo, announced that it will operate from 11:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. on Saturday, June 27. Lunch runs from 11:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., followed by an idle period from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., then dinner service from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. Beer takeout is available from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., making the taproom easy to use both inside and on the go.

The recommended beer for the day is `SAL SAL`. It is described as a saison made with lime and salt, with a light, easy-drinking profile and relatively low alcohol. The beer is tied to sister spot Olla's anniversary, and it is presented as a pint-worthy option that works well before a meal or alongside food.

Food-wise, the evening menu starts with dishes such as dashi-rich grilled mackerel biryani, dahl chicken, and Gujo miso keema curry. As a brewpub, the venue naturally lends itself to moving back and forth between food and beer. The terrace is also pet-friendly for dogs and cats, adding to its casual, flexible feel for a relaxed craft-beer outing in Koenji.
