Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke Reveals August Schedule With Hansharo Beer TTO
Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke in Tokyo has published its August schedule. The lineup includes a Hansharo Beer tap takeover on August 8 and a 7th anniversary celebration on August 29 at the basement beer pub in Akasaka.
Hop BroAkasaka-Mitsuke's basement is getting loud this month: Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke just posted its August calendar, and the August 8 Hansharo Beer Summer Festival TTO is the main attraction.
MugiWait, what! That acronym pressure is intense. It sounds like I'm getting a quiz before I even order a beer!
Hop BroTTO means Tap Take Over, where one brewery basically takes over the draft list. This time it's 20 Hansharo beers on tap, so the faucets are basically throwing a summer festival.
MugiWhoa! Twenty kinds? That's not a menu, that's a tasting carnival. My stomach needs a scheduling app.
Hop BroThey're also tapping the store's Original WEST COST IPA. Style-wise, it's crisp, firmly bitter, and built to put the hop aroma right up front.
MugiWhat does that even mean? Hop aroma up front makes it sound like the beer walks in and introduces itself!
Hop BroHonestly, kind of. You get citrus and pine-like notes, and it's more dry than sweet. Plus brewer Yamada is doing a hand-pump serving of one limited beer.
MugiWait, like pump-pump pump? The second I heard one beer only, my relaxed face clocked out.
Hop BroNot quite that athletic. It gives the beer a softer mouthfeel, which is the fun part. And they pair it with fresh Izu fish sushi and a 7 p.m. rock-paper-scissors contest.
MugiBeer, sushi, and rock-paper-scissors? That's way too much summer fair energy. A basement beer pub isn't supposed to be this dangerous!
Hop BroThen on August 29 there's the 7th anniversary event: 270ml glasses for 550 yen, 473ml pints for 890 yen, and from 7 p.m. Besshoman does a special live set of Showa folk songs, so now I want to drink through both dates.
MugiThat's it, I'm in. August 8 for Hansharo, August 29 for the anniversary, and right now I'm already obsessing over my first pour.
August lineup
Craft Beer Server Land Akasaka-Mitsuke has shared its August calendar, highlighting two events. The first is the `August 8` Hansharo Beer summer TTO. The post announces 20 Hansharo Beer taps, an original WEST COST IPA opening, and a one-off hand-pump service by brewery head Yamada.
Beer, food, and event programming
The same post also lists sashimi-to-sushi made with fish delivered directly from Izu, plus a rock-paper-scissors game planned around 7:00 p.m. The setup suggests a venue where beer is paired with food and in-store events, rather than a simple tap list drop.
7th anniversary party
On `August 29`, the bar plans a 7th anniversary celebration. Opening prices are listed as 550 yen for a Glass (270 ml) and 890 yen for a Pint (473 ml). A special live performance by Bessho, the representative of Gargery, is also scheduled from 7:00 p.m., along with Showa-era folk songs.
About the venue

Its basement location makes it easy to stop by after work or before meeting friends.
