Hop BroAn event in Ebisu's underground with around 20 draft beers coming together is not something to miss.

Hop BroExactly. It's a joint event by Paint Palette Brewing x AQ Bevolution, and it's happening on Saturday, March 28 and Sunday, March 29 at IBREW Ebisu Ekimae.
MugiWhoa! But who is AQ? An import network sounds like a secret beer base!
Hop BroPretty much that. They're planning to pour about 10 varieties from Barebottle Brewing and Trap Door Brewing, plus about 12 varieties from Paint Palette Brewing.
MugiWait, what's a variety? That suddenly sounds like science class, like beer categories!
Hop BroBasically, it means the number of beer brands or styles, and this lineup is fair to call a paradise for tasting side by side.
MugiAnd Paint Palette Brewing is based inside awaawaKOBE in Kobe? A brewery that comes from a hot spring spa is way too stylish!
Hop BroHead brewer Mr. Togami also studied overseas, and I love the idea of using malt and hops like paint.
MugiIf I can drink in Ebisu while hearing about that, I definitely want to take it slow at the counter!
Hop BroIn a calm underground space, IBREW prides itself on 47 draft beers, so this event is pretty hot.
MugiOkay, decided. March 28 and 29 are for toasting in Ebisu. My throat is already thinking about beer today!
20 Draft Beers Gather Underground in Ebisu
At IBREW Ebisu Ekimae, a joint tap takeover by Paint Palette Brewing x AQ Bevolution will be held. The dates are Saturday, March 28, 2026, and Sunday, March 29, 2026. The venue, IBREW Ebisu Ekimae, is a beer pub in an easy-to-access location within walking distance of Ebisu Station, and its appeal is that you can enjoy 47 kinds of draft craft beer.
At this event, AQ Bevolution will line up about 10 beers from Barebottle Brewing and Trap Door Brewing, while Paint Palette Brewing will offer about 12, for a planned lineup of around 20 in total. Unlike a TTO that goes deep on a single brewery, this event stands out for letting you compare the individual character of multiple breweries side by side.
Paint Palette Brewing is a brewery that opened in the summer of 2025 inside awaawaKOBE, a natural hot spring spa and sauna in Kobe's Chuo Ward. Head brewer Mr. Togami built his experience at breweries in California and Kyoto and also studied brewing at a university overseas. Its concept, which casts malt and hops as "paint," to create a wide variety of beers, is also impressive.
AQ Bevolution, meanwhile, is known as an importer of craft beer from the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. This event will use that import network to give visitors a chance to enjoy a lineup of fresh overseas beers all at once in Ebisu.
The interior has a calm atmosphere unique to an underground space, making it well suited both for lingering over beers at the counter and for gathering around a table with friends to share and compare labels. In Ebisu, this is an event worth watching as a chance to experience both imported breweries and up-and-coming domestic breweries at the same time.
