Hop BroHere's the news: Uchoten Brewing is holding a TTO at BEER TAP HONMACHI in Matsumoto on January 24!
MugiWait! Does TTO mean the whole place gets taken over by Uchoten Brewing!?
Hop BroPretty much! It's an event where all the taps are filled by one brewery, and this time all seven taps are Uchoten Brewing.
MugiSeven taps! It's basically Uchoten straight from the faucet!
Hop BroThe headline item is the release of Vienna Lager. The post says it was brewed together with Mr. Maruyama, so it sounds like a milestone beer.
MugiWhat is that! The name Vienna Lager already sounds so stylish that I'm lost trying to imagine the taste!
Hop BroIt's a lager style that originated in Vienna. It's crisp and easy to drink, with a gentle aroma of maltiness. It's the kind of beer where the deliciousness slowly sneaks up on you without being flashy.
MugiOhh! And there are two prerelease beers too, right? Does that mean you get to drink a preview of Uchoten's future?
Hop BroExactly that! If you compare them with the lager as the base, you can see Uchoten Brewing's current direction in a really three-dimensional way. Plus, the post says they'll be there from opening, so it's a chance to raise a glass with the brewers.
MugiBeing able to drink while talking with the brewers sounds amazing! A night in Matsumoto where craft beer wins!
Hop BroIt's a night where you can feel the energy of Nagano craft beer. Just imagining it makes my throat want a drink, and I want to go straight for my first glass.
Nagano-based Uchoten Brewing will hold a TTO at BEER TAP HONMACHI, a popular beer spot in Matsumoto. The announcement was posted at 11:45 p.m. on January 23 and said the event would take place the following day, the 24th.
The highlight this time is the release of Vienna Lager mentioned in the post. It is introduced as a beer “brewed together” with Mr. Maruyama to mark his graduation, and it sounds like a meaningful pour for the brewery as well. In addition, the lineup for the day is set to include this Vienna Lager plus two prerelease beers, filling seven taps in total with Uchoten Brewing offerings.
The appeal of a TTO is being able to experience one brewery’s character all at once. If you compare the beers, including the two prerelease selections, while keeping the lager at the center, you should get a three-dimensional sense of where Uchoten Brewing stands right now. The post also says, “I’ll be there from opening, so let’s raise a toast!” so it is also worth noting as a chance to talk directly with the brewers while drinking.
Nagano’s craft beer scene has been building momentum through collaborations between local taprooms and specialty shops. Uchoten Brewing’s Matsumoto TTO should also be a night that lets people feel that energy first-hand.
