A February 9, 2026 at 18:34 Instagram post from Yamato Brewing revealed the tap list for the WTTO to be held on February 14 at YCBT Nara Sanjo-dori. In a double tap takeover by CAMADO BREWERY and Shima Brewing, all 10 taps are scheduled to be served that day.
Hop BroThe Nara craft scene is about to get seriously hot on February 14! Yamato Brewing is holding a WTTO at YCBT Nara Sanjo-dori, and the full 10-tap lineup has been revealed.
MugiWait, 10 taps? That's basically a festival! What does WTTO stand for?
Hop BroWTTO means Double Tap Takeover. This time, CAMADO BREWERY and Shima Brewing are taking over together, and it even includes the collaboration beer "Shima-Kama Pale Ale."
MugiOh wow, the lineup is legit... What even is "ICCHAN ESB"? It sounds like a special move!
Hop BroGood one. ESB is an English-style ale, with moderate bitterness and a rich malt character. So if you compare it with the IPA "Kanko IPA," the difference in the quality of bitterness really stands out.
MugiWhat is this, a beer tasting class already! And on the Shima side, you've got "Super Delic Saison," "Oaky Smoke Ale," and "Tora no O Spice Ale" all piled together with huge personality!
Hop BroAnd with "Isobue Black IPA" and "Meyer Lemon Lager" too, you can travel from light to toasty, spicy, and citrusy styles all in one day. The tap lineup is really thoughtfully put together.
MugiSeriously, with that much range, won't I get lost? By my third drink, I feel like the menu and my friendships would both be falling apart...
Hop BroDon't worry. The head brewers are scheduled to visit around 4:00 p.m., so if you tell them what you like, they should help you map out a route. This is where Yamato Brewing's hands-on approach to "sharing the fun" really shows.
MugiThat's the best! On February 14, let's kick things off with a toast of Shima-Kama Pale Ale at YCBT Nara Sanjo-dori! I already totally want a drink!
Yamato Brewing has announced the beers to be poured at the WTTO (Double Tap Takeover) it will hold on February 14 at YCBT Nara Sanjo-dori. The announcement features a lineup of 10 taps, including one collaboration beer from CAMADO BREWERY × Shima Brewing.

According to the post, the head brewers from each brewery are also scheduled to visit around 4:00 p.m. on the day. The lineup spans a wide range of styles, from pale ale, IPA, ESB, and lager to saison, smoke, spice, and black IPA, making it an easy event for tasting side by side.
The venue, YCBT, is one of Yamato Brewing's craft beer bases in Nara. On its official website, Yamato Brewing says it aims to "share the deliciousness and fun of craft beer," and has been broadening the reach of beer culture in the gateway area of Nara. This WTTO should offer a chance to experience the character of breweries from outside the prefecture while making use of that local foundation.
February 14 is worth watching as an event that combines a tap lineup capable of covering a wide range of styles in a single day with direct contact with the brewers themselves.
