Kamigata Beer to Set Up at Totoya in Kyoto on March 20, Serving a New Mint-Style Beer
Kamigata Beer will set up a booth at the “SUSTAINABLE CRAFT BEER FES” held at Totoya in Kyoto on Friday, March 20 (public holiday). Serving hours are 15:00 to 21:00. In the post, the brewery said it plans to bring a new mint-style beer, not yet available, along with several bottled beers.
Hop BroToday I’ve got a Kyoto topic you’ll want to know about: Kamigata Beer is setting up at SUSTAINABLE CRAFT BEER FES on March 20.
MugiWait, where in Kyoto is it? If it’s easy for me to get to, that would be perfect. What’s the Totoya event like?
Hop BroThe venue is Totoya in Kamigyo Ward, and the hours are a pretty generous 15:00 to 21:00. Nice to have room to drop in even in the evening.
MugiOh wow! With those hours I can hop between places! So what can I drink? The post’s “refreshing minty one” already has me curious!
Hop BroHere’s the thing: it sounds like a new release that hasn’t even been connected at the taproom yet, so it’s basically in early-tap debut territory. Mint styles really hit the spot in spring.
MugiWhat is that! “Early-tap debut territory” sounds so technical all of a sudden! And “not connected” sounds like a cable isn’t plugged in, which gives me IT trouble vibes!
Hop BroIn short, it means the keg hasn’t been hooked up for draft service yet. This event could be your chance to drink it before anyone else.
MugiGot it! And it’s not just draft, right? There are several kinds of bottled beer too? That makes tasting side by side super easy!
Hop BroExactly. And the fact that they’re also bringing grissini as food is pretty sharp. The saltiness helps reset your palate, so it’s a great match for spring outdoor tasting.
MugiThat settles it! Getting to taste Kamigata Beer from Osaka in Kyoto is exciting, so let’s aim for the new mint beer first and arrive early for a toast!
The brewpub Kamigata Beer, based in Nishi-Awaji, Higashiyodogawa Ward, Osaka, announced that it will appear at an event in Kyoto on Friday, March 20 (public holiday). The venue is Totoya (Osawa Office Headquarters Building, 252 Izumicho, Kamigyo Ward, Kyoto City), and the event is called “SUSTAINABLE CRAFT BEER FES”. Serving hours are 15:00 to 21:00, giving attendees a solid window from evening into night.
According to the Instagram post, the brewery plans to bring a new beer described as “a refreshing minty one.” As of the time of the post, this beer was said to be “not yet connected at the taproom”, meaning there may be a chance to taste it ahead of release at the event. They also plan to bring several kinds of bottled beer, offering options beyond draft pours.
On the food side, the post also says they will bring grissini, introduced as something “everyone loves.” With its light saltiness and crisp texture, it should pair well with early-spring outdoor events and between tastings.
As a brewpub that keeps brewing and serving close together, Kamigata Beer continues to share its beers from its Osaka base (3-15-6 Nishi-Awaji, Higashiyodogawa Ward, Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture). This Kyoto appearance is worth noting as a chance to experience its beers outside Osaka.
If you are heading to the event, it looks like a good idea to arrive early, secure the new release first, and then set your pace with bottled beers and food in between.
