Komuro Beer to Host Brasserie Knot Tap Takeover on Aug. 22-23
Komuro Beer in Okusawa, Setagaya, Tokyo will host a Brasserie Knot tap takeover on August 22 and 23. Head brewer Hiromi Uetake is also scheduled to visit on August 22, and the event will highlight the brewery's core lineup and food-friendly approach.
Hop BroToday's topic is a Brasserie Knot takeover. Komurobiilu in Okusawa, Setagaya is hosting a TAP TAKE OVER on August 22 and 23.
MugiWhat? A tap takeover sounds like the beer faucets are staging a coup. What actually happens?
Hop BroA very peaceful coup. It's basically one brewery's festival: five core Brasserie Knot beers on tap, and head brewer Uetake is scheduled to visit on the 22nd.
MugiWow, a school-turned brewery? That's so dramatic. Does fermentation get recess when the bell rings?
Hop BroCute image, but fermentation is serious business. They're aiming for a clear, crisp profile that feels like it melts into the air of Tsurui Village beside the Kushiro wetlands.
MugiWhat is a Belgian wit anyway? It suddenly sounds like I'm being quizzed. What's FLOWER BELGIAN WIT like?
Hop BroIt's a soft white beer with wheat in the mix, and FLOWER brings citrus and spice on the nose. It sounds technical, but it drinks very gently.
MugiThen I want to start with BIRD PALE ALE! A light pale ale sounds perfect for my craft-beer warm-up.
Hop BroExactly. Then WIND IPA keeps the bitterness clean, MOON DOUBLE IPA goes tropical, and DOTO BELGIAN IPA brings that eastern Hokkaido identity. The range for a flight is seriously wide.
MugiHold on, does Double IPA mean double the amount? Because if it does, I'd be finished in three minutes!
Hop BroNot double the volume, more like bigger hop aroma and more body. And Komurobiilu is the kind of place that serves the story of the land along with the beer, so you get Tsurui Village in the glass too.
MugiThat sounds amazing! If I can take an eastern Hokkaido trip from Setagaya, I want to start soft with FLOWER and launch all the way to the moon with MOON.
Hop BroThat's the route. I want a pint now, and on August 22 and 23 I want to sink into the whole Brasserie Knot world right at the counter.
Event details
Komuro Beer, a beer pub in Okusawa, Setagaya, Tokyo, will host a Brasserie Knot tap takeover on August 22 and 23. According to the announcement, head brewer Hiromi Uetake will also visit the bar on August 22.
About Brasserie Knot
Brasserie Knot is based in Tsurui Village, Hokkaido, in a renovated former elementary school near the Kushiro Wetland. The brewery focuses on clear, food-friendly beers that fit the local climate and everyday drinking. Uetake has brewing experience at COEDO BREWERY, Ushitora Brewery, and Hoppukotan Brewing.
Beer lineup
The brewery's core lineup includes `FLOWER BELGIAN WIT`, `BIRD PALE ALE`, `WIND IPA`, `MOON DOUBLE IPA`, and `DOTO BELGIAN IPA`. That gives visitors a wide range, from a citrus-and-spice Belgian wit to a light pale ale, a cleanly bitter IPA, a tropical double IPA, and a Belgian IPA rooted in eastern Hokkaido.
Why it matters
Komuro Beer is a setting that suits Brasserie Knot well because the bar places value on the story behind each beer as much as the beer itself. This takeover should be a good chance to experience the brewery's identity in central Tokyo.
