Five Upcycle Beer selections on tap

Kimama Craft Beer Stand, a beer pub in Machida, Tokyo, will host a tap takeover featuring five Upcycle Beer beers. The announcement describes the event as an “upcycle 5-beer TTO,” offering guests the chance to compare several beers from the brand across the pub’s taps.

The announcement does not specify the individual beer names, styles or ABVs. Based in Ebina, Kanagawa, Upcycle Beer is known for brewing with local ingredients and materials that might otherwise be discarded. Its past beers have included a session IPA made with rescued iyokan oranges and a golden stout brewed with coffee beans, suggesting a lineup focused on distinctive ingredients and expressive flavors.

Food and live music alongside the beer

The event will also feature “Yamada Meshi,” with further details about the food still to be announced. Pairing the takeover with a food event gives guests an opportunity to explore how the beers work with different dishes. A live performance by Tomoki Yamada is also planned, adding music to the drinking experience.

Kimama Craft Beer Stand is a casual beer pub within walking distance of Machida Station, with multiple taps and a rotating selection of craft beer. Guests should check the venue’s official Instagram for the final beer list, schedule and opening details before visiting.
