Hop BroHere’s a hot year-end scoop from Shinjuku: Kumamoto Appears in the Galaxy is a one-day-only event!
MugiWhat! Kumamoto in Kabukicho!? Where is it being held?
Hop BroThe venue is Paradise Galaxy in Shinjuku Kabukicho, and the date is Sunday, December 21, 2025.
MugiWhoa! And only for one day at the end of the year, that’s seriously rare!
Hop BroThe core is a joint project between AMAKUSA SONAR BEER and WITCH CRAFT Market, designed to let people experience Kumamoto culture in the city center.
MugiWait, what can you eat and drink there besides beer?
Hop BroIt’s a three-part lineup: Beer is AMAKUSA SONAR BEER, Food is WITCH CRAFT MARKET, and Shochu is Amakusa Shuzo & Kuma Spirits, making it a full Kumamoto course lineup.
MugiWhat did you just say about a "tap takeover"!? Way too much katakana for me!
Hop BroSimply put, it’s a service style where one brewer’s draft beer is tapped in a concentrated way. This time, it’s basically a pairing experience event centered on Amakusa beer, matched with food and "atsumono" snacks.
MugiGot it, Kumamoto everywhere in both the glass and on the plate sounds amazing! On December 21, let’s definitely go drink together!
WITCH CRAFT Market (Ozu-machi, Kikuchi District, Kumamoto Prefecture) announced its final event appearance of the year in a news article titled "Kumamoto Appears in the Galaxy < Special Event in Kabukicho >." The venue is "Paradise Galaxy," which opened in Shinjuku Kabukicho in April 2025. The event will be held on Sunday, December 21, 2025.
The focus this time is a joint project between AMAKUSA SONAR BEER × WITCH CRAFT MARKET. The article describes it as a "special event that takes over Shinjuku Kabukicho with Kumamoto," offering a chance to experience Kumamoto makers and local culture in the city center.
The offerings are:
- Beer: AMAKUSA SONAR BEER
- Food: WITCH CRAFT MARKET
- Shochu: Amakusa Shuzo & Kuma Spirits
This three-part lineup centers on AMAKUSA SONAR BEER labels, designed so guests can enjoy Amakusa and Kumamoto drinks paired with "atsumono" snacks. WITCH CRAFT Market says this will be its "first food-focused booth," drawing attention to food offerings that go beyond what it usually serves in its regular store operations.
The article also touches on the background of WITCH CRAFT Market handling the craft beer purchasing for "Paradise Galaxy," and that relationship, which goes beyond a one-off collaboration, adds credibility to the event. How will Kumamoto's craft beer culture be expressed in Kabukicho, a district where diverse people gather? It is an event worth checking out with both a glass and a plate on this year-end day.
