CRAFT BEER BAR IBREW GINZA announces breweries for the Oct. 1 Tokyo 47Tap Takeover
CRAFT BEER BAR IBREW GINZA has revealed the breweries taking part in its Tokyo 47Tap Takeover and Tokyo Beer Collection 2026 on Oct. 1. The lineup showcases Tokyo craft beer with 47 breweries on tap, offering a citywide tasting opportunity in Ginza.
Hop BroGinza is turning into a 47-tap Tokyo festival on October 1. CRAFT BEER BAR IBREW Ginza has announced the breweries joining 「Tokyo 47Tap Takeover」 and 「Tokyo Beer Collection 2026」.
MugiWhat! 47 breweries, 1 tap each? That sounds like every beer faucet in Tokyo reporting to Ginza!
Hop BroPretty much. A tap is the pouring line, and this is a tap takeover where each brewery gets one spot.
MugiNo way, that's a beer culture festival. Fourteen west-side breweries alone is enough to make my notebook foam over!
Hop BroThis announcement covers the west Tokyo lineup from places like Tachikawa, Komae, Chofu, Koganei, Mitaka, Fuchu, and Nishitama, with names like Sakamichi Brewing, ISANA BREWING, and VERTERE.
MugiWow! But the actual beer names still are not out yet? My stomach already showed up early.
Hop BroRight, for now it's the brewery list. But it should range from hop-forward IPA to calmer, maltier styles, so the tasting spread looks strong.
MugiHold on, malty character suddenly sounds like science class. Is that basically the tasty bread-crust part?
Hop BroThat is actually close. Malt is grain, and it creates the backbone of the flavor with toastiness, sweetness, and body.
MugiAnd some are usually not sold outside their own place? That is so rare my excitement just hit keg pressure levels!
Hop BroThat is a big part of the appeal. It means sending beer outside the brewery, and IBREW makes easy side-by-side tasting possible with small pours.
MugiThen October 1 is officially Tokyo beer raid in Ginza day. IPA first or malt first, either way I already want a glass!

As a beer pub, the venue is a practical place to sample multiple taps in one stop. For anyone following Tokyo craft beer, Oct. 1 should be a date to watch.
