Beer O'clock taps Barbaric WORKS' The Spider Thread, with June events ahead
Beer O'clock, a craft-beer pub in Chiba's Fujimi area, has added Barbaric WORKS' The Spider Thread to its New Tap lineup. The bar is open through 11:30 p.m. on Fridays, and June also brings anniversary and guest events plus fresh bottles in the shop.
Hop BroBeer O'clock just put The Spider Thread on tap, and this Barbaric WORKS guest beer is exactly the kind of thing I chase down.
MugiWhat! A spider-thread name already sounds mysterious. What kind of beer is it?
Hop BroIt's a foudre saison collab, made with Barbaric WORKS and Asuto Nakanishi, who also works under Brouwerij te Breetschoot.
MugiWait, foudre saison sounds like a spell. Am I ordering beer or summoning something?
Hop BroIt basically means a wooden-vat saison. It has natural-yeast aroma, a woody note, and a fresh, youthful feel.
MugiWhoa, a woodsy saison? So I'm basically drinking a very stylish forest?
Hop BroAnd here's the clever part: a small barrel-aged blend was added to balance the acidity and body.
MugiSo it's tart but not thin? Craft beer really makes my brain do homework.
Hop BroExactly. Beer O'clock also has lunch-to-late-night hours, and on Fridays and Saturdays they're open until 23:30.
MugiThat helps so much! A Chiba station pint you can catch whenever the craving hits is a dangerous luxury.
Hop BroJune is packed too: the 13th anniversary beer drops on June 21, then there's a Maruho Saketen event on June 27, a galette event on June 28, plus Miyazaki Hideji 30th collabs and four Pasific bottles in the shop.
MugiPub pours, take-home bottles, and right now The Spider Thread pouring? Yeah, no question, I want a glass immediately.
New Tap
Beer O'clock has put Barbaric WORKS' The Spider Thread on tap. The beer is a collaboration with Western-style brewer Brouwerij te Breetschoot and brewer Asuka Nishinaka. According to the bar's post, the finished foudre saison shows aromas from natural yeast, a woody accent, and a young, fresh profile. A small blend of barrel-aged beer was added to balance acidity and body.
A practical stop in Chiba
Beer O'clock is easy to work into a day in the Fujimi district of Chiba City. Its updated hours from April 2026 are: Monday, Tuesday and Thursday from 12:00 to 22:30; Friday and Saturday from 12:00 to 23:30; and Sunday and holidays from 12:00 to 22:00. Weekday lunch service runs from 12:00 to 15:00, so it works both as a lunch stop and as an after-work beer bar.
Bottle shop and June schedule
The bottle shop is also active, with a notice about a Miyazaki Hideji 30th-anniversary collaboration and four Pasific items in stock. On the events side, Beer O'clock has announced a 13th-anniversary beer reveal on June 21, a Maruho Saketen event on June 27, and a galette event with Myojone at Benten on June 28. For beer fans, it is a place where draft updates and event programming move together.
