Quartet Brewing to join KOMAE BEER FESTA at Komae Festival
Karuizawa-based Quartet Brewing announced on Instagram that it will take part in KOMAE BEER FESTA at the e-kimae plaza venue of the Komae Festival. The post says One Seed will serve the brewery's beers at the event.
Hop BroHere’s the topic today: Quartet Brewing from Karuizawa, Nagano, announced it will join KOMAE BEER FESTA at the Komae Festival.
MugiWhat! Karuizawa in Komae? That instantly turned into a plan I want on my calendar.
Hop BroAnd the venue is the station-front plaza, with the post saying One Seed will serve the beer there.
MugiOhh! But what does served by One Seed mean? Is that different from the brewery pouring it themselves?
Hop BroThat’s the key part. It sounds like One Seed will handle draft service, which means beer poured fresh from a keg so you still get the craft beer experience.
MugiNo way! Draft service totally sounded like a rough draft for a meeting document to me. I was in the wrong genre!
Hop BroSee, Quartet Brewing runs a brewery and taproom on Karuizawa Hondori, so they’re the kind of brewery that sells the whole local experience, not just the liquid.
MugiNice! So have the beer names and styles been announced yet? IPA, sour, lager... that part matters!
Hop BroSo far, the article says the lineup is undisclosed. Still, a Karuizawa brewery showing up at a Tokyo station festival is enough to raise expectations.
MugiAnd in 2026 there’s a new south-exit venue at Komae Station too, right? That sounds like a beer-in-hand walking festival.
Hop BroExactly. Along with the Senryuji summer festival and the Izumi-no-Mori street area, it’s built for walking the whole district, which makes it a strong local event too.
MugiI’m finished, honestly. The image of a pint by the station and then hopping between spots means both of us want a beer right now.
Quartet Brewing announced on Instagram that it will appear at KOMAE BEER FESTA, the beer venue held at the e-kimae plaza during the Komae Festival. The post says One Seed will serve Quartet Brewing's beers, making the station-area venue a place where visitors can enjoy craft beer.
The Komae Festival is a community-led event spread across several venues around Komae Station. In 2026, a new south-exit venue is added, alongside the temple grounds, the beer-focused plaza, and the street-terrace area, creating a wider layout for visitors to move between different atmospheres.
Quartet Brewing is based in Karuizawa, Nagano. The brewery operates a brewery and taproom on Karuizawa Main Street, and it continues to share its beers through both on-site service and event appearances. This event connects a Karuizawa brewery with a local festival setting in Komae.
