TAP1 Returns to the Online Store

Northern Brew, a craft beer brewery based in Abira Town, Hokkaido, announced on Instagram that "TAP1 has been restocked." The post said it was back in the online store and directed readers to check the link in the profile.

It's Easy to See Where You Can Buy It

What stands out in this post is that it does not stop at simply announcing the restock; it also clearly lays out the stores where TAP1 can be purchased and the restaurants where it can be enjoyed. On the retail side, the list includes Roadside Station Abira D51 Station, the product hall (Hayakita Station), Chida Shoten, memos, Harada Shoten, all Bikkurikki locations, Liquors Kamehata, Kamehata Seitaro Shoten, Wine & Cheese Hokkaido Kono-sha, and Sake no Iroha.

For restaurants, TAP1 can be enjoyed at Menya Utsukushii Hi, GreenPockets Domestic Terminal Gate Store, Amamoya, Jiyuichi Bar, and bar NAYA, among others. By presenting the sales outlets in a list, the announcement is easy to understand for both buyers and drinkers.

A Brewery Carrying Abira Town's Identity

Northern Brew is a brewery based in Abira Town, Hokkaido, that continues crafting beer while championing respect for Hokkaido's rich nature and primary industries. Its official website also introduces original beers made with oats from Abira and the operation of a sports bar serving BBQ dishes that pair well with craft beer.

For a locally rooted maker to carefully share where its beer can be bought and where it can be drunk is a strength that feels very much like a local brewery. The restock of TAP1 will likely be a welcome sight for drinkers who have been waiting for a staple, and it may also serve as a reason to follow craft beer from Abira Town.
