Kimama Craft Beer Stand to host KUNITACHI BREWERY tap takeover and Kiriwo Men event on Aug. 22
Kimama Craft Beer Stand in Machida announced a tap takeover and food event with KUNITACHI BREWERY and Kiriwo Men on Saturday, Aug. 22, from 2:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. The post highlights clean, easy-drinking beers paired with Hazy ramen.
Hop BroMachida has a TTO on August 22 coming up. Kimama Craft Beer Stand is bringing in KUNITACHI BREWERY and Kirio Noodles.
MugiWait, what is TTO? And beer plus ramen too? That is way too much excitement at once!
Hop BroTTO means tap takeover. One brewery takes over the taps, so this is a full day to drink a lot of KUNITACHI BREWERY beers.
MugiOhh! But when they say clean beers, does that mean light and kind of forgettable?
Hop BroNot at all. A clean finish means low roughness and smooth drinkability, so you want another sip and it works really well with food.
MugiOkay, then what is Hazy ramen supposed to be? Did somebody pour cloudy IPA into a noodle bowl?
Hop BroThe name is wild, but think snack-style ramen. It is not a late-night finisher, it is a rich, punchy bowl built to go alongside beer.
MugiBeer is the star and the ramen still comes in swinging? Incredible. And four minutes from Machida Station means I can practically drift there.
Hop BroAlso, KUNITACHI BREWERY is sending Kobari and Nao, and at night they are even doing a rock-paper-scissors contest for merch. It runs from 2 p.m. to 11 p.m.
MugiEven if the beer lineup is still secret, drink-all-day vibes plus Kirio Noodles already sounds like a guaranteed win. I need to show up hungry.
Hop BroExactly, and the beer names are unannounced for now, but the direction is clear: easy-drinking, food-friendly beers that do not wear you out.
MugiI am done for, I want a pint now. Start me with a clean beer, then send in the Hazy ramen and I will be completely happy.
Event details
Kimama Craft Beer Stand in Machida, Tokyo, has announced a tap takeover and food event with KUNITACHI BREWERY and Kiriwo Men on Saturday, Aug. 22, from 2:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. The post frames it as the long-awaited KUNITACHI tap takeover, giving beer fans a chance to focus on one brewery's lineup for the day.
What to drink
No individual beer names were disclosed in the post, but KUNITACHI BREWERY's beers are described as clean and suited to any occasion. The caption suggests an easy-drinking range that should work both on its own and alongside food, rather than a lineup built around heavy or extreme styles.
Food pairing
The food side comes from the phantom ramen project Kiriwo Men. The caption describes it as a savory Hazy ramen that is not meant to be a closing bowl, but a beer-friendly snack-style ramen. That makes the event feel built around pairing, with the beer and food meant to be enjoyed together rather than separately.
Venue atmosphere
Kimama Craft Beer Stand sits about four minutes from both the Odakyu and JR Machida stations, making it an easy stop for local drinkers. KUNITACHI BREWERY's Koba and Nao are also expected to join, and a rock-paper-scissors contest for brewery goods is planned for the evening. The setup is casual, compact, and very much oriented toward beer people who want to spend time with the brewery and the food in one place.
At this stage, the announcement is more about the brewery's overall character than specific labels, but the combination of clean KUNITACHI beer and Kiriwo Men's Hazy ramen should be an easy draw for fans looking for a focused tap takeover with food.
