Craft Beer Market Mitsukoshimae Branch (Nihonbashi, COREDO Muromachi 3) will hold its 12th anniversary event on March 22. It will serve two commemorative collaboration beers created by Chichibu Beer and BLUE MAGIC, and the brewery teams are also announced to be visiting that day.
Hop BroYou know, a 12th anniversary event is coming to Mitsukoshimae. Craft Beer Market Mitsukoshimae Branch is getting seriously committed for the big day.
MugiWhat! Even though it's an anniversary event, it's not just about drinking? It sounds like it has a huge celebration vibe!
Hop BroThe venue is COREDO Muromachi 3, 1F, and it's directly connected to Mitsukoshimae Station. On Sunday, March 22, 2026, you can enjoy it from 11:00 to 23:00.
MugiThat's long! Then you could probably stay there from day to night. Wait, is it okay to assume that kind of thing?
Hop BroThe stars of the event are the collaboration beers, with Chichibu Beer and BLUE MAGIC taking part. What's more, they are expected to visit around 4:00 p.m. on the day, which makes it even more exciting.
MugiThe brewers are coming!? Then this is definitely one of those times when you drink while listening to them talk!
Hop BroThe first of the two planned beers is Ano Kuma Bitter. Since the style is Bitter, it's a fairly classic beer with mellow malt flavor and a nicely balanced bitterness that comes through gradually.
MugiEven though it's called Bitter, it's not just bitter? It feels like a grown-up flavor, but somehow that makes me feel a little relieved!
Hop BroThe other one is Dodon Harape-nyo, a New World Spice Ale. It pushes forward with jalapeño-like spice character, making it a beer that goes all in on aroma and heat.
MugiWow, it sounds like it would go great with Japanese food and beer! I suddenly want to snack on everything: sashimi, tempura, gyoza, all of it!
Hop BroExactly. Since the limited food menu also includes things like assorted sashimi and rolled sushi, drinking, eating, and comparing is the right way to do it. Today really makes me want to raise a glass in Mitsukoshimae.
MugiYeah, this is a birthday event I totally want to go to! First the Bitter, then the spice, and then let's have one more after that!
Craft Beer Market Mitsukoshimae Branch will hold its 12th anniversary event on Sunday, March 22, 2026, from 11:00 to 23:00. The venue is on the 1st floor of COREDO Muromachi 3, directly connected to Mitsukoshimae Station. True to a shop that excels at pairing Japanese food with craft beer, the anniversary celebration will feature not only beer but also limited-time food.
This time, the main attraction is the collaboration beers prepared to mark the shop's anniversary. In the post, the two breweries in charge of brewing are introduced as Chichibu Beer and BLUE MAGIC, and it is also announced that they are expected to visit around 4:00 p.m. The chance to enjoy a drink while hearing from the brewers themselves makes this an especially appealing event for beer pub fans.
The collaboration beers scheduled to be served are these two:
- Ano Kuma Bitter (Chichibu Beer)
- Dodon Harape-nyo (BLUE MAGIC)
The style labels are Bitter and New World Spice Ale, respectively. The appeal is being able to compare at the same time a classic, malt-forward beer and a brew that highlights spice character. Because the lineup clearly splits in direction, it should be easy to pace yourself with one light beer first and then move on to a second that digs deeper into aroma and stimulation.
Food is expected to include a broad range centered on Japanese dishes such as assorted sashimi, tempura, gyoza, smoked mackerel tacos, and rolled sushi. For a day in the Nihonbashi area when you want a proper meal but still want to push the beer a bit, it looks like it will be a dense, anniversary-style day to enjoy.
