Hop BroYamanashi's Koshu City's Riot Beer Katsunuma Base is making a charge into an event in Nakano.
MugiWhat! They're at the Oedo Beer Festival? Just the name alone already feels like a festival!
Hop BroThe venue is Nakano Shikinomori Park, and the brewery will be there for five days from May 27 to May 31.
MugiWait, what does advance tapping even mean? If you open it early, won't the beer get mad?
Hop BroNo, no, it won't get mad. Basically, it means you can drink it there before anyone else. This time, the key point is that they're offering the Hyuganatsu Pilsner in advance.
MugiOhhh! A pilsner with a citrusy aroma might be perfect for warmer days!
Hop BroExactly. A pilsner is a crisp, easy-drinking lager style, and when you add the Hyuganatsu character on top, it really brings out that lively freshness. It's just the thing for the hot season.
MugiBut a Yamanashi brewery coming to a Tokyo event feels intense! Koshu City's beer is becoming a pretty interesting name.
Hop BroOn weekdays it's from 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., and on the 30th it starts at noon, while on the 31st it goes until evening, so it's easy to go after work or on the weekend.
MugiAnd coming from a place that's so strongly associated with wine and bringing beer instead is kind of cool. It feels like a new face of Yamanashi that you want to cheer for!
Hop BroYeah, it's great to be able to meet Katsunuma's flavor in the middle of the city. This definitely belongs on the day-drinking shortlist.
MugiDecided! Let's go sometime in May and enjoy it with serious commitment from the first glass!
Yamanashi-based Riot Beer Katsunuma Base, headquartered in Koshu City, announced on Instagram that it will have a booth at the Oedo Beer Festival in Tokyo's Nakano. According to the post, the brewery will be there for five days, from May 27 to May 31. The venue is the Nakano Shikinomori Park event area, making it an urban event that beer fans in Tokyo can easily stop by.
The post also announced that the brewery will be serving "Hyuganatsu Pilsner for Sagamiono Sakeota's anniversary" as an advance tap at the venue. A pilsner made with "Hyuganatsu," a citrus fruit with a bright, aromatic character, is likely to draw attention as a style well suited to the warmer season ahead. From the wording of the post, it seems the brewery's aim is not just to sell beer, but to give visitors something special to enjoy through an event-exclusive pour.
The schedule for the Oedo Beer Festival is 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. from May 27 to 29, 12:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. on May 30, and 12:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. on May 31. With hours spanning weekday evenings through weekend daytime, it is set up to be easy to drop by after work or for a weekend daytime beer.
With a brewery based in Katsunuma taking part in a major event in central Tokyo, this could also be a chance for more people to discover Yamanashi craft beer. Koshu City is strongly associated with grapes and wine, but as a craft beer producer coming out of the area, Riot Beer Katsunuma Base is a brewery whose moves are worth keeping an eye on.
