Hop BroBreaking news: on Friday, March 6, SANITY Takanawa is hosting a “GAME BREW × Beppu Brewery TAP TAKEOVER”!
MugiWhat!? A tap takeover is the one where the shop's taps get taken over by beer!?
Hop BroThat's basically right. This time, GAME BREW has seven taps, Beppu Brewery has seven taps too, and the event is opening all 14 taps at once.
MugiFourteen taps is way too much of a festival! And Saga's GAME BREW plus Beppu's Beppu Brewery - a Kyushu combo is so hot!
Hop BroWhat makes it good is the pairing. GAME BREW's concept is “praying for victory and celebrating victory,” while Beppu Brewery makes beer around the idea of “after a bath,” so their local identities are almost opposite, which is interesting.
MugiOhhh! So what are the beer names or styles? IPA? Lager? Or hot-spring flavor...?
Hop BroHot-spring flavor would be pushing it too far. As of the post, the individual beer names and detailed styles haven't been announced, but that's exactly why there's excitement in comparing the lineup on the day.
MugiNot announced yet makes me even more restless! I can already see myself freezing in front of the menu for five minutes!
Hop BroLeave that to me. Start with lighter beers, then work your way up with a “stair-step tasting” toward stronger aromas, and even 14 taps won't leave you lost. Plus, it's got extra meaning because it's a milestone for Beppu Brewery head brewer Mr. Koseki, aka Kosekichi.
MugiThat's a night you can drink with a whole story attached! Let's head straight to SANITY Takanawa after work and travel through Saga and Beppu in a glass!
The craft beer specialty shop SANITY Takanawa Gateway announced on Instagram that it will hold a “GAME BREW × Beppu Brewery TAP TAKEOVER” on Friday, March 6. The venue is SANITY Takanawa Gateway (Takanawa, Minato City), and the post says that the lineup will feature 7 taps from each brewery, for 14 taps in total.
The highlight of this pairing is that you can compare the distinct character of two Kyushu breweries side by side. GAME BREW is based in Yoshinogari, Saga, and is a brewery that uses “praying for victory and celebrating victory” as its concept. Its official online store also emphasizes beer crafted to accompany the turning points of everyday life, and the brewery operates with ties to sports culture and local events.
Meanwhile, Beppu Brewery is known for brewing rooted in the context of the hot spring town of Beppu, and the post also introduced its beer-making concept centered on being “after a bath.” In addition, this time there is a special significance tied to a milestone for Beppu Brewery head brewer Mr. Koseki, known as “Kosekichi,” so it looks like it will be a night that goes beyond a simple tap event.
From a drink after work to a leisurely side-by-side tasting, this is a chance to experience beers that reflect the character of Saga and Beppu at the same counter.
