MugiWait, a festival sequel? So it’s like a downtown after-party?
Hop BroExactly. It carries the buzz of August’s Sendai Craft Beer Festival to Amber Rondo’s taps. You can hang out from 3 p.m. to 11 p.m.
MugiI know BrewBeast beer, but what is hard cider exactly? Is it basically sweet apple juice?
Hop BroIt’s an alcoholic drink made by fermenting apple juice. Yeast turns sugars into alcohol, so think of it as fermented apple goodness—with bright acidity and fruit character.
MugiOh wow! Comparing beer and cider sounds like a field trip for taste buds!
Hop BroAnd beyond the festival beers, there will be event-only hard cider that was not poured at the festival. The specific labels are still a surprise, which makes the tap list even more fun.
MugiA delicious mystery! But I heard oyster dishes are coming too—is that true?
Hop BroIt is. Oyster Hut Rokko will be there, alongside Amber Rondo’s festival menu. Salty, savory oysters pair beautifully with crisp beer or appley acidity: a pairing traffic jam in the best way.
MugiThen September 22 means Amber Rondo! Let’s raise a glass to beer, oysters, and cider and savor the festival afterglow!
Taking the festival atmosphere into the city
BrewBeast from Hanamaki and Green Neighbors Hard Cider from Shiwa, Iwate, will join forces at Beer Stand Amber Rondo in Honcho, Sendai, for “AFTER TAPS.” The event will take place on September 22, 2026, from 3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.
Presented as a continuation of the Sendai Craft Beer Festival held at Kotodai Park in August, the event brings the connections and energy of the festival into a downtown taproom. The taps at Amber Rondo are scheduled to feature beers from BrewBeast alongside hard cider from Green Neighbors Hard Cider.
The announcement does not identify individual beer names. It does state that beers served at the festival will be available, together with hard cider that was not brought to the festival. That lineup should offer drinkers a chance to compare craft beer with the crisp acidity and fruit character of hard cider from Green Neighbors.
Oyster dishes and festival food
Food will be provided by Oyster Hut Rokko, which also appeared at the Sendai Craft Beer Festival. Menu items served at the festival by Amber Rondo will also be available, giving guests plenty to pair with the beer and cider.
Beer Stand Amber Rondo is located on the first floor of Raryushū Sendai in Honcho, Aoba-ku, Sendai. With BrewBeast, Green Neighbors Hard Cider, and Amber Rondo sharing the taps, “AFTER TAPS” offers a compact downtown gathering built around beer, cider, and food.
Green Neighbors Hard Cider’s taproom in Shiwa is scheduled to remain open as usual on the day of the event.
