Ginza Beer Pub Lupulin to Mark 14th Anniversary with Brasserie LUPURON Pinot Noir Red Release
Beer pub Lupulin in Ginza will hold a two-day event on June 13 and 14 to celebrate its 14th anniversary and the release of Brasserie LUPURON’s Pinot Noir Red. The brewery will be featured on four taps during the event.
Hop BroBakushuya Lupurin in Ginza is doing a 14th anniversary event this weekend. On June 13 and 14, they're also rolling out a new release from their own brewery, Brasserie LUPURON.
MugiWhat! A party plus a new release? That's way too many reasons to celebrate at once!
Hop BroThe star of it is Brasserie LUPURON's Pinot Noir Red, introduced as a red-hued brew made with Pinot Noir grape skins after pressing.
MugiWait, brewed with grape skins? Did a winery just crash the beer party?
Hop BroThat's the fun part. Those post-press skins add aroma and color, so it brings a wine-like finish into the beer side of things.
MugiNo way, and they're planning all four taps as LUPURON for the event? That's a huge jump from the usual one or two!
Hop BroYep, and a pre-release cuvee might show up too. In plain terms, that means a special batch where you can really taste that brew's individual character.
MugiSo it's basically a sneak-preview pour! Craft beer people really turned treasure hunting into a drinking format.
Hop BroAnd there's more: a three-piece label art display by Asa Hiramatsu, who designed the pub interior and also handles LUPURON's visuals. That's a pretty rare thing to catch in Ginza.
MugiSeriously, it's a Ginza-only display too? Beer and original artwork at the same time is a lot for my brain to process!
Hop BroJune 13 opens at 3:00 p.m. with last call at 9:00 p.m., and June 14 has last call at 8:00 p.m. Since it's a regular service format, reservations are fine as long as you order food and drinks. I already want to go.
MugiA beer-filled anniversary trip on the third floor in Ginza sounds perfect. I'm ordering Pinot Noir Red, and if you spot a mystery cuvee, you report back immediately!
A special tap lineup for the anniversary weekend
Beer pub Lupulin, located on the third floor of Urano Building in Ginza 6-chome, Chuo City, turned 14 on June 9 and has now entered its 15th year. To mark that milestone, the shop will host a special event on Saturday, June 13, and Sunday, June 14.
The main focus is Brasserie LUPURON’s new release, Pinot Noir Red. It is described as a red liquid made from the skins left after pressing Pinot Noir. For the event, Lupulin plans to connect four taps of LUPURON, instead of the usual one or two, and even a pre-release cuvée may appear.
The event will also feature a special display of three label originals by Hiramatsu Asa, the designer responsible for Lupulin’s interior and LUPURON’s visual identity. The originals are scheduled to be exhibited later at the brewery in Niki, Hokkaido, so seeing them in Ginza should be a rare opportunity.
Hours are 3:00 p.m. opening and 9:00 p.m. last order on June 13, and 3:00 p.m. opening and 8:00 p.m. last order on June 14. Reservations are accepted as part of regular service, but only for guests ordering both drinks and food. It will be a two-day chance to enjoy beer and a milestone anniversary in central Ginza.
