Novel Craft Brewing

What kind of brewery is Novel Craft Brewing?

hop excitedHop Bro

Novel Craft Brewing in Takaido, Suginami has all its beer names based on musical terms. The shop name, "reverb," means reverberation, and there is a turntable on the counter.

Huh, a beer place with a turntable!? That sounds super interesting!

Their standard saison, "Looper," the Belgian pale ale "Tremolo," and the dark lager "filter"... all of them are named after effects pedals and recording techniques. You can really tell they are made by a brewer who loves music.

Looper is the loop effect! It's interesting how saison connects with music.

It's a sister location of the popular beer bar "Novel Craft" in Chitose-Karasuyama, and they started brewing on site in Takaido in 2024. It's a brewpub style with a glass wall behind the counter so you can see the brewing equipment.

Oh wow! You can see the brewing tanks while you drink? That alone is exciting.

Another hallmark is the large number of saison-style beers. "Over Dub" and "Spiral" are also saisons. In a recent post, they even released a limited beer called "Phase 3," and on some days the tap list apparently has eight beers.

Eight kinds! And they're all named after music, right? Just looking at the menu sounds fun.

It's a 4-minute walk from Takaido Station, and on Fridays it opens at 5:00 PM. On March 28, they're also planning a 7-beer tap takeover at SANITY in Sangenjaya, so there may be another chance to drink their beers outside the brewery.

I want to go! Drinking saison while listening to music sounds amazing.
