Yokohama Beer Brewery to Host TYSON PIZZA Popup and Serve Yorocco Beer on May 2
On May 2, Yokohama Beer Brewery will hold a TYSON PIZZA popup on the first floor of the attached Yokohama Beer Stand. Guest taps will also feature Yorocco Beer’s "Hometown Stout," so visitors can enjoy freshly baked pizza and craft beer together.
Hop BroA one-day-only popup on May 2 is coming to Yokohama Beer Brewery. TYSON PIZZA is taking over the first floor of Yokohama Beer Stand, and the fresh-baked pizza paired with beer sounds really good.
MugiWhoa! So it’s a pizza artisan popup? Being able to eat pizza at a beer bar too sounds like an insanely happy level of indulgence.
Hop BroExactly. TYSON PIZZA is run by a craftsman from Kumamoto, and their signature is baking at about 400°C. It comes out fragrant on the outside and chewy on the inside, the kind of pizza that pairs well with craft beer.
MugiOhhh! But what does chewy oven-baked actually taste like? I always somehow end up finishing pizza in one bite before I know it!
Hop BroPut simply, the strong heat bakes it in one shot, so the aroma comes forward and the dough keeps just the right amount of moisture. That gives you crisp outside, chewy inside, which works really well with beer’s bitterness and roasted notes.
MugiThat sounds amazing! And this time Yorocco Beer is showing up too, right? A guest tap that goes with pizza already feels like a win before ordering even starts.
Hop BroExactly. The highlight is Hometown Stout 4.5%, a regularly brewed dark beer. It has a roasty character without being too heavy, so it pairs well with the wheatiness and cheese in pizza.
MugiI always thought dark beer meant something really heavy, but there are easy-drinking stouts too! Then maybe I can handle it, or maybe I won’t stop at just one glass!
Hop BroAnd Yokohama Beer Brewery started brewing on July 1, 1999, so it’s a long-established brewery that has built its identity around local ingredients and beer. Being able to drink at UMAYA while looking at the tanks is also irresistible for beer lovers.
MugiWow, it feels like such a locally rooted event. If I can enjoy both pizza and beer, I want to get there early and secure everything before it sells out!
Hop BroThen on May 2, let’s have a drink with freshly baked pizza in hand. With this combination in Yokohama, I’d even want to run there as soon as I closed up shop.
MugiI’m in! If we toast with pizza and dark beer, we’ll probably both have pretty happy faces!
Yokohama Beer Brewery will host a TYSON PIZZA popup on the first floor of "Yokohama Beer Stand" in Sumiyoshi-cho, Naka Ward, Yokohama City, on Saturday, May 2, from 12:00 to 20:00. Service will end once items sell out, so arriving early is the safest bet.
TYSON PIZZA is a pizza artisan from Kumamoto who mainly appears at events and catering setups across the Kanto area. Their pizzas are baked in an oven at about 400°C, and are known for a fragrant crust and a chewy center. It is a pizza that makes the most of its ingredients and can be enjoyed together with beer.
This time, Yorocco Beer from the Shonan area will also appear as a guest tap. According to the announcement, offerings will include the regularly brewed "Hometown Stout (ABV 4.5%)", which is being served to commemorate the opening of a taproom in Ofuna, plus two other varieties. It is an event where the combination of pizza and craft beer can be enjoyed in a one-day-only style.
Yokohama Beer Brewery began brewing on July 1, 1999, and has long continued brewing in Yokohama, the birthplace of beer in Japan. At the brewery’s attached main restaurant, "UMAYA," another attraction is being able to enjoy fresh beer while looking out at the tanks. This popup is a regionally rooted project that feels very much in line with a brewery that has focused on local ingredients and craft beer.
