Tap list for July 13


Beer Pub Nekotoazarashi, a small craft-beer pub with counter seating in Mitaka, is open on Monday, July 13 from 17:00 to 23:00. The bar focuses on pairing beer with food, and this update centers on a 10-tap lineup that spans a wide range of styles.

The 10 taps


- Azarashi Pilsner O-kawari / And Beer & Mitaka Yamaneko Brewery
- Pico Pico / And Beer
- TranquilAle PaleAle / Mugi Zakkoku Kobo
- SAL SAL / And Beer
- Zakkoku Weizen / Mugi Zakkoku Kobo
- Sennosake ni Natte / Ushitora Brewery
- Golden Sparkling / Beer Hearn
- Vale BestBitter / And Beer
- Schwarz / Harvest Moon
- Kiri no Machi Ki Hazy IPA / And Beer

The featured beer is "Azarashi Pilsner O-kawari," a collaboration between And Beer and Mitaka Yamaneko Brewery. The venue describes it as a summer-friendly pilsner designed for easy drinking. And Beer also appears with "Pico Pico," "SAL SAL," "Vale BestBitter," and "Kiri no Machi Ki Hazy IPA," giving the board a mix of crisp, bitter, and hop-forward options.

The rest of the lineup adds contrast: Mugi Zakkoku Kobo contributes both "TranquilAle PaleAle" and "Zakkoku Weizen," while Ushitora Brewery, Beer Hearn, and Harvest Moon round things out with "Sennosake ni Natte," "Golden Sparkling," and "Schwarz." With pale ale, weizen, bitter, dark beer, and hazy IPA all in one place, it is the kind of list that invites side-by-side drinking.

On the food side, the bar recommends spicy tomato braised pork and fresh-basil gapao rice. Chili beans sold out and are being prepped again, which fits the pub's beer-first, food-second-afterthought-not-at-all approach. July 14 is listed as a day off, so July 13 is the night to catch this lineup.
