Hop BroCat lovers and beer lovers, gather round. Otako Beer Brewery in Chiba announced a donation-based IPA project for Cat Day on February 21, 2026.
MugiWhat! A donation-based IPA? So if you drink it, cats get help!?
Hop BroExactly. Otako Beer Brewery is serving "Bokura to, Neko," brewed by NORTH ISLAND BEER in Ebetsu, Hokkaido, and part of the sales goes toward medical support for cats without owners.
MugiNo way! It feels like you’re helping the kitties every time you tilt your glass. That’s amazing!
Hop BroAnd it actually tastes great too. It has a tropical, bright aroma, the solid bitterness you expect from an IPA, and a full body, but the finish is clean. It’s designed for spring.
MugiWait a second, did the "body" and "finish" suddenly turn this into a beer critics' championship!?
Hop BroSimply put, body means the "heaviness in your mouth," and finish means the "aftertaste once you’ve swallowed." In other words, it’s "satisfying, but crisp on the way out!"
MugiOhhh! So it’s not just bitter, you can enjoy the aroma too, and then it slips away cleanly. Perfect for a Cat Day toast!
Hop BroYeah. Drinking it "deliciously, fun, and comfortably" is what matters, and that turns into support for life itself. It’s a glass that really shows the social reach of craft beer.
MugiDecision made! Let’s toast with "Bokura to, Neko"! My heart is already hopping before I even drink it!
Otako Beer Brewery introduced a donation-based beer project timed for the February 22 "Cat Day" observance. According to the post, the brewery will carry NORTH ISLAND BEER's (Ebetsu, Hokkaido) donation beer, "Bokura to, Neko," and part of the sales will go toward medical support for "cats without owners," including stray and rescued cats.
The beer style is IPA. The announcement describes its taste as having a tropical, vibrant aroma, the firm bitterness typical of an IPA, and a satisfying body with a clean finish. It is presented as a beer suited to the feeling of spring, and as something that appeals to people who want to enjoy hop aromas.
As a brewery based in Chiba that continues to share information actively, Otako Beer Brewery's latest post also highlights the broader social role craft beer can play, where simply drinking becomes a form of support. Rather than just a seasonal campaign, it is also worth noting as an idea that creates a point of connection between beer fans and cat lovers.
"Delicious, fun, and comfortable." That single glass gives something back to the local community and to living beings. For a Cat Day toast, this is the kind of option worth remembering.
