Akatsuki Taps Ginza Announces Breweries Exhibiting at BONUS TRACK BEER FES 2026
Akatsuki Taps Ginza announced the exhibitors for "BONUS TRACK BEER FES 2026," to be held on May 30 and 31 in the parking lot adjacent to BONUS TRACK in Shimokitazawa. Eleven groups, including Akatsuki Brewery Tokyo Lab, will gather, with beer and food available under free admission.
Hop BroHey, Mugi-chan, the exhibitor info for BONUS TRACK BEER FES 2026 is in. Akatsuki Taps Ginza is the one sharing it, and it sounds like it’s going to be a pretty lively weekend in Shimokitazawa.
MugiWhoa! A beer fest in Shimokitazawa sounds fun! And it’s free admission, too, so it feels like the kind of place you can just drop by, right?
Hop BroExactly. It’s being held on May 30 and 31 in the parking lot next to BONUS TRACK in Shimokitazawa. The hours are 11:00 to 20:00, so it’s basically an early-summer roaming-style event you can hit from daytime drinking through an evening pint.
MugiRoaming-style? That sounds like a fancy way to say drinking! How many exhibitors are there? I saw 11 breweries listed, which is kind of amazing, isn’t it?
Hop BroIt really is impressive. In addition to After School Brewery, Futako Beer, and Goto Brewing, Akatsuki Brewery Tokyo Lab is in there too, so it’s a lineup that brings together a bunch of Tokyo’s distinctive breweries at once.
MugiTokyo Lab? Are they making beer in a laboratory? That sounds complicated... what does lab-style brewery even mean?
Hop BroBasically, it’s a base for trying new recipes and brewing methods, not just the classics. Akatsuki Taps Ginza centers on its organically certified JAS organic beer "Dragon Eye," so the ingredients feel really clean and polished.
MugiDragon Eye sounds powerful, but it’s organic? That contrast is wild! But do you pay differently at the venue? It said cash-on, right?
Hop BroYep, that means you pay on the spot at each booth. So it’s easy to try the beers one by one, and you can pair them with food like Y.MARKET BREWING’s Nagashi no Biryani too.
MugiBeer and biryani is the best! And if there are one-day-only snacks from the BONUS TRACK tenants too, it really feels like the food is a star attraction as well.
Hop BroExactly. Beer lovers and people who just want to wander around Shimokitazawa alike should find this one really appealing. If we go, let’s start with a tasting round and see how it goes.
MugiAgreed! If we chase all 11 groups, we’ll probably be laughing by the time we head home. All right, let’s go around saying, one more drink is fine!
