Canal brewing in Oimachi to host Cycad Brewing Tap Take Over on Sept. 19
Canal brewing in Tokyo’s Oimachi area will host a Cycad Brewing Tap Take Over on Saturday, September 19, 2026. The post also teases a collaboration beer, making it a good chance to try guest-brewery character alongside Canal’s regular lineup.
Hop BroOimachi is about to get lively, because the September 19 TTO at Canal brewing is bringing in Cycad Brewing.
MugiWait, Tap Take Over already sounds intense. What actually happens?
Hop BroIn simple terms, it is a guest brewery festival. Canal brewing hands the taps over and Cycad Brewing gets to show its full personality.
MugiOhhh! And it even says a collaboration beer will be poured too. That makes it feel extra special!
Hop BroYep, and the headline bottle is Peanut Butter Po Taro Nitro ver. It is a Canal brewing × Cycad Brewing Flavored Porter, and they are clearly having fun with it.
MugiHold on, a Nitro porter suddenly sounds like science class. How is that still a beer?
Hop BroHere is the trick: pouring with nitrogen gives it a super smooth mouthfeel. The bubbles get finer, and the porter richness comes across softer and creamier.
MugiWhat is that! If it also has that peanut butter vibe, this thing sounds dangerously close to dessert.
Hop BroDangerously correct, honestly. And Canal brewing also has its flagship IPA C, plus saison and pale ale, so the side-by-side tasting will be strong.
MugiSo in Oimachi, you get Cycad's character and Canal brewing's range all in one go. That is kind of perfect.
Hop BroExactly, and being at Canal brewing means you can sample gradually instead of committing too fast. That is the beauty of a tap lineup like this.
MugiI am done for, I want a pint now! September 19 is starting to look like a mandatory trip to Oimachi.
