Hop BroAt BEERKICHI Beerkichi in Watanabe-dori, Fukuoka, the bar will be open from 3:00 p.m. to midnight on Monday, March 30. On top of that, five kegs of NEKOBEER's new releases are coming in at once, so today is pretty hot.
MugiWait, five new kegs at once? It's all cats in there now, like a beer cafe instead of a cat cafe!
Hop BroAnd the lineup is great too. There's DDH Oatcream IPA "Nyaji and the Oats Cream Factory," DDH Hazy IPA "More Nerutora-san," and even "Pilsnyaa!" so the range is wide.
MugiHold on, what does DDH mean? It sounds like a spell, like I suddenly walked into the brewery's back door!
Hop BroDDH basically means heavily double-hopping the beer, a method that really brings the aroma forward. Oatcream IPA has a smooth mouthfeel from the oats, and Hazy IPA is all about haze and juiciness, which makes them easy to understand.
MugiGot it! So pilsner is the crisp kind, and session IPA is the easy-drinking one, right? Wow, it's so broad it's basically cat-punching every preference at once!
Hop BroExactly. And there's also the sour IPA "I Am Cherry," so people who like acidity have an option too. It's a lineup that really covers everyone, from hard-hop fans to people who just want a light glass.
MugiAnd even members of Novoru Brewing came to celebrate? The toast pressure in there must have been intense!
Hop BroRight, and this time it overlaps with Yuri Fest 2026, so it's nice that you can enjoy the atmosphere of the city from March 27 to 30 as well. That's very BEERKICHI, being able to feel not just the beer but the whole event flow too.
MugiAnd the April 6 Machi Chuka event is interesting too, so this is definitely a place I have to go! I want to hold NEKOBEER and get as happily lazy as a cat too!
