Y.Y.G. Factory, the Chiba City brewery-restaurant in Chiba, says pickups for its 10th-anniversary imperial stout will start with service on Aug. 28. Drinkers can compare barrel-aged and regular versions, and the Yoyogi first-floor tap will also begin pouring the regular version that day.
Hop BroListen to this, Y.Y.G. FACTORY's 10th anniversary imperial stout, brewed on April 5 by brewers past and present, will be ready for pickup starting August 28!
MugiWait, all-star brewers? That's basically an anniversary concert, except the instruments are beer tanks!
Hop BroAnd the main act is the imperial stout. It's a dark beer with more alcohol and a much bigger, richer profile than a regular stout.
MugiWhoa, but richer profile means what exactly? Is this beer wearing a weighted blanket?
Hop BroMore like extra density when it hits your palate. This time you can compare barrel-aged and regular versions, so you can feel how aging rounds it out.
MugiThat sounds like a tasting challenge! I'll sip the right one, sip the left one, and somehow end up dizzy all by myself!
Hop BroIf you're going for pickup, don't forget the anniversary ticket. That's a seriously important detail.
MugiYikes, ticket required? I was absolutely about to show up with nothing but enthusiasm!
Hop BroAnd starting the same day, August 28, the Yoyogi first-floor tap will serve the regular version, plus other brewers' beers are expected to be on tap too.
MugiSo it's basically a 10th anniversary festival! Pickup people win, taproom people win, everybody wins!
Hop BroA commemorative stout that packs ten years of brewing history into one pour is impossible for fans to ignore. I'm already pairing it with food in my head.
MugiThen I want the regular version first and the barrel-aged one next for a full dark beer field trip! On August 28, you're doing the commentary and I'm doing the drinking!
Y.Y.G. Factory, the brewery-restaurant in Chiba City, has shared an update on its 10th-anniversary stout. According to the post, an imperial stout brewed on April 5 with brewers from across the brewery's history has been completed, and pickups will begin on Aug. 28.

Known for combining fresh house-brewed beer with food service, Y.Y.G. Factory marks its 10th anniversary with a beer that reflects the brewery's history. For fans of dark beer, this is a release worth noting.
