MugiWhat?! So we know canned beer is coming, but not what’s inside? That suspense is fizzy already!
Hop BroExactly. For now, the name and beer style are undisclosed—along with the release date, ABV, price, and where it will be sold.
MugiThat is some serious teasing! So it could be an IPA or a lager, and the flavor remains unknown too?
Hop BroRight. Nothing official says which ingredients will be used, but Takao Beer is known for using local ingredients whenever possible.
MugiLocal ingredients? I’m picturing hops from next door announcing, “I’m in the can now!” I love the idea of knowing the makers behind ingredients.

MugiTiny workers pulling overtime where we can’t see them! And Takao Beer also reuses spent grain, right?
Hop BroYes. The grain left after brewing can become compost or animal feed. That local circular approach suits a brewery at the foot of Mt. Takao beautifully.

Takao Beer, a small brewery based in Hachioji, Tokyo, has published an announcement for what appears to be a new canned beer. The official Instagram post is titled “< C A N N E D B E E R >,” indicating that the brewery is preparing a new canned product.
At the time of publication, the brewery had not announced the beer’s official name, style, ABV, package size, price, release date, or retail availability. No official tasting notes or ingredient details have been provided either, so further information will need to come directly from Takao Beer.
Founded in 2017 by local residents, Takao Beer describes itself as a small beer maker rooted in the town at the foot of Mount Takao. The brewery emphasizes the use of ingredients from nearby producers where possible, including malt, hops, fruit, spices, and yeast. It also aims to reduce waste by reusing spent grain as compost or animal feed.
Takao Beer operates the KO52 Brewery & Taproom near the south exit of Takao Station, where visitors can enjoy draft beer. Its canned and bottled beers are also distributed through selected local retailers. The brewery has not yet revealed what style the new can will feature, making the next official update one to watch for fans of Takao’s locally focused brewing.
