Hop BroNutori Brewing is doing a three-day tap takeover at Tsumugi in Minamikashiwa, from Friday, March 13 to Sunday, March 15. A perfect event right in the middle of the weekend!
MugiWait! A tap takeover is the thing where they take over the whole bar!? A beer action movie!
Hop BroNot the violent kind. It’s an event where multiple beers from the same brewery are lined up on tap. This time, the highlight is the collaboration lager with Tsumugi!
MugiWhat! When you hear 'on tap,' suddenly it sounds super pro... so how are you supposed to enjoy it?
Hop BroIn simple terms, it means you can drink it on draft. And because you can compare the flavors from the same brewer one after another, the hop aroma and malt character are easier to tell apart.
MugiOhhh, a tasting showdown! And with three days, it’s easier to make plans, too. I’m glad we can do that in Minamikashiwa!
Hop BroOn top of that, on Saturday the 14th at 3:00 p.m., 'Okami' is scheduled to stop by, and on Sunday the 15th at 3:00 p.m., the brewery’s representative is scheduled to visit. Nutori’s signature 'Jiyo Meshi' will also be served. This is where the beer-and-food context really matters.
Mugi‘Context’ all of a sudden, like a critic! So Jiyo Meshi is basically the kind of tasty food that really sinks into your body, right?
Hop BroExactly. And because Nutori also serves its own brewed beer plus Jiyo Meshi at its brewery base in Kawaguchi, this Minamikashiwa event is like a 'Nutori on the road' experience.
MugiWait, so if the Kawaguchi location is also open as usual during the event... does that mean you can hop between Minamikashiwa and Kawaguchi!? A full-on stomach expedition!
MugiI’ve decided: first drink the collaboration lager at Tsumugi, reset with Jiyo Meshi, and if possible, go to Kawaguchi too!
Hop BroPerfect plan. Then from March 13 to 15, let’s go raise a glass at the Nutori Brewing festival!
Based in Saitama, Nutori Brewing will hold a three-day weekend tap takeover at Minamikashiwa's 'Tsumugi'.
According to the announcement, the event runs from Friday, March 13 to Sunday, March 15, 2026. Serving hours will follow Tsumugi's regular business hours. The key point is that several Nutori beers, including the collaboration lager with Tsumugi, will be lined up on tap.
In addition, on Saturday the 14th and Sunday the 15th, Nutori members are scheduled to be on site and to bring along the brewery's food concept, 'Jiyo Meshi'. The announcement says:
- Saturday, March 14: 'Okami' visits from 3:00 p.m.
- Sunday, March 15: The brewery's representative visits from 3:00 p.m.
Nutori's official website says it operates a shop and brewing base in Kawaguchi, Saitama Prefecture, and promotes a style that serves house-brewed beer and Jiyo Meshi in a brewery-adjacent space. This pop-up event can be seen as a chance to experience that combination of beer and food in Minamikashiwa as well.
The post also says the Kawaguchi shop will remain open as usual during the event, adding to the fun of bar-hopping between Kawaguchi and Minamikashiwa over the weekend. For anyone who wants to taste the lineup intensively, it should be three days hard to miss.
