Hop BroMatsudo Beer is going to hold “Matsudo Craft Beer Fest with Pub Crawl 2026” on the West Exit Deck of Matsudo Station. Running for seven days from April 30 to May 6, 2026 is pretty ambitious, right?
MugiWhat! They’re doing that for so long right in front of the station!? A pub crawl fest is basically the kind of thing where you end up drinking every time you move!
Hop BroExactly. And because it’s centered on breweries along the Joban Line, there’s a real fun in comparing the beers. The strength of this event is being able to encounter beers with all kinds of personalities right in front of the station.
MugiYou say personality, but how am I supposed to know what’s different? IPA and Belgian White sound like magic spells or something!?
Hop BroGood question. IPA is a style with strong hop aroma and bitterness, while Belgian White is a light, airy white beer with a soft wheat and spice aroma. Matsudo Beer adds local ingredients on top of that, which makes it interesting.
MugiWhoa, local Matsudo ingredients sound nice, like they really love the area. Hearing they use Matsudo fruit and rice makes me feel like I could eat a whole meal with it!
Hop BroThat’s exactly it. Matsudo Beer is a brewery in Matsudo City, and its range goes from standards like Matsudo Pale Ale to IPAs, Belgian Whites, and seasonally limited seasonal happoshu.
MugiHapposhu sounds kind of different! Is seasonal happoshu the kind that changes flavor depending on the season?
Hop BroThat’s right. Because it’s seasonal, it tends to feature ingredients and flavors unique to that time of year. And since food booths are also planned for the venue, one of the best parts is that you can enjoy the pairings with food instead of just charging straight through the beers.
MugiWow, that’s amazing! Taking it easy from the afternoon and finishing with a toast in Matsudo sounds like a total win.
Seven Days of Beer Fest at Matsudo Station West Exit
Matsudo Beer will hold “Matsudo Craft Beer Fest with Pub Crawl 2026” on the West Exit Deck of Matsudo Station for seven days from Thursday, April 30, 2026 to Wednesday, May 6, 2026. A defining feature of this event is its lineup centered on breweries along the Joban Line, offering a chance to sample and compare multiple craft beers right in front of the station.
Food booths are also planned for the venue, creating a setup where visitors can enjoy beer and food together. Because the event runs during a long holiday period, it should be a great chance to relax and make the rounds from the afternoon, or to enjoy it in the spirit of a pub crawl by comparing flavors little by little.
