After School Brewery to Offer House-Brewed Beer in Ikejiri-Ohashi on July 25-26
After School Brewery in Setagaya’s Ikejiri-Ohashi area announced its July 25-26 pop-up on Instagram. The lineup centers on house-brewed craft beer, paired with food from the venue’s purchase counter.
Hop BroThere’s a tap pop-up in Ikejiri-Ohashi worth watching: After School Brewery is pouring house-brewed beer at HOME/WORK VILLAGE on July 25 and 26.
MugiWait, it sounds like a school club and it’s a real brewery? Brewed in the old staff room is way too powerful as a premise!
Hop BroThat’s exactly the charm. It keeps the feel of the former Ikejiri Junior High site, so drinking there feels like an adult after-school hang. That old-school atmosphere is part of the flavor.
MugiBut the article doesn’t list any beer names, right? Beer names unannounced means I’m supposed to be nervous until the day of?
Hop BroPretty much. This one is selling the experience more than individual labels, and the styles aren’t listed either. Still, house-brewed craft beer is clearly the main event.
MugiStyle means IPA or lager and stuff like that? Every time I hear beer style, I feel like I’m about to fail a dress code check.
Hop BroExactly. It’s basically the blueprint for whether a beer leans aromatic, crisp, roasty, and so on. When it’s fresh, fermentation-driven aroma can really pop.
MugiWhat is this, surprise science class? So basically the aroma is extra lively. And then they add a special school-store burrito plus chili con carne hot dogs and pizza? That’s unfair!
Hop BroCompletely unfair, in the best way. With takeout-friendly food, it isn’t just beer for beer’s sake. Even the food pairing is making me want a pint already.
MugiThen it’s settled. A fresh pour in a former school setting sounds way too good, and now I desperately want a pint in Ikejiri-Ohashi.
What’s Happening
After School Brewery announced a two-day appearance at HOME/WORK VILLAGE on Saturday, July 25, and Sunday, July 26. The post highlights the brewery’s own house-brewed craft beer, served in the setting of a former school staff room.
Food will also be available for takeaway, including the venue’s signature burritos, chili con carne hot dogs, and pizza. The setup is clearly designed so visitors can enjoy beer together with a proper meal rather than stopping at drinks alone.
The Setting
After School Brewery is located inside HOME/WORK VILLAGE, a repurposed former school campus in Ikejiri-Ohashi, Setagaya. The space leans into the idea of “adult after-school activities,” and the school atmosphere gives the taproom a distinct sense of place.
No individual beer names were listed in the post, but the focus is firmly on the brewery’s own beer. Rather than a flashy limited release, this reads as a chance to experience the brewery’s everyday character through fresh beer and casual food.
Who It’s For
This is a good fit for anyone interested in brewery spaces built around community and a sense of place. If you want to spend a weekend in the Ikejiri-Ohashi area with craft beer at the center, this pop-up should be worth a stop.
