DD4D Brewing to Host Joint Tap Takeover at CBM Atre Kichijoji Store Starting May 2
Ehime-based DD4D Brewing in Matsuyama will hold a joint tap takeover with NORTH ISLAND BEER at CRAFT BEER MARKET Atre Kichijoji Store from May 2 to 3. At the store near Kichijoji Station, it is a chance to enjoy beers from two breweries together.
Hop BroFrom May 2 to 3, it's a joint event in Kichijoji. Just the idea of DD4D Brewing and NORTH ISLAND BEER gathering at CRAFT BEER MARKET Atre Kichijoji Store already sounds delicious.
MugiWait, you can compare beers from two breweries? If something like that happened in Kichijoji, I'd run all the way from the station to the store!
Hop BroExactly, that's what a tap takeover is. It's an event where the venue's draft lines are heavily used, and you get to encounter beers with that moment's brewing and a limited-edition feel.
MugiWhat does that mean! So you're saying they take over all the draft lines? It's kind of exciting, like a change of the beer's main character!
Hop BroThat's pretty close. DD4D Brewing is a brewery in Matsuyama City, Ehime Prefecture, and NORTH ISLAND BEER is from Hokkaido. What's interesting is seeing the personalities of the south and north lined up at the same counter.
MugiWow, being able to drink the distinct personalities of north and south all at once is the best! It feels like something you can only drink on a trip suddenly shows up in Kichijoji, that's kind of unfair!
Hop BroAnd since the venue is that spot on the first floor of Atre Kichijoji East Building, it's easy to stop by because it's close to the station. It's the kind of place where you wander in and before you know it, your glass keeps emptying.
MugiOhhh! Even someone like me who doesn't usually travel far would be super helped if I could compare beers in Kichijoji! This seems easy for craft beer beginners to get into too!
Hop BroExactly. Not only for fans of DD4D Brewing, but also for people who usually drink beers from other regions, it should be a chance to broaden their beer horizons.
MugiI can't handle it anymore, my throat is already reacting just from imagining it! I want to toast right now, so let's go together on May 2!
From Saturday, May 2, 2026 to Sunday, May 3, 2026, a joint tap takeover by DD4D Brewing × NORTH ISLAND BEER will be held at CRAFT BEER MARKET Atre Kichijoji Store.

DD4D Brewing is a brewery based in Matsuyama City, Ehime Prefecture. Its official website is `japandemic.co.jp`, and while rooted in the local community, it continues to communicate with beer fans across Japan. By teaming up this time with Hokkaido's NORTH ISLAND BEER, the project stands out for letting people taste the appeal of breweries from different regions all at once.
A tap takeover is an event in which one brewery or multiple breweries make concentrated use of the taps inside a venue, and one of the pleasures is encountering current brews and limited beers. Not only for fans of DD4D Brewing, but also for people who usually drink beers from other regions, it seems like it will be a chance to broaden their beer horizons in Kichijoji.
