Choshi Beer’s station-front crowdfunding enters final two days, with next goal set at 8.88 million yen
The crowdfunding campaign for Choshi Beer’s new station-front store in Choshi City, Chiba, has entered its final two days. In an Instagram post, the brewery thanked supporters and said its next goal is 8.88 million yen.
Hop BroToday's topic is Choshi Beer's new flagship. Their crowdfunding project for a taproom by Choshi Station has only two days left.
MugiWait, only two days left!? I thought this was about a beer release, but it's a full-on shop-building finale!
Hop BroExactly. And the next target is 8.88 million yen, so they're pushing ahead while thanking supporters on Instagram.
MugiHold on, what's a next goal? That sounds like the secret stage in a video game!
Hop BroIt's the new target you set after clearing the first one. Basically, it's a push to make the place even better.
MugiOhh, so this new shop isn't just for selling beer, it's more like a station-side hangout?
Hop BroPretty much. It's about a 90-second walk from Choshi Station, and they're aiming for an easygoing flagship spot for both travelers and locals.
MugiEvery time I hear flagship, I picture a beer tap on a ship and honestly, I can't unsee it!
Hop BroWild image, but not quite. A flagship store is the face of the brand, and this time community-building comes first more than any specific beer name or style.
MugiThat makes sense! Putting supporters' names on a board inside gives it a built-together feeling, which is really sweet.
Hop BroRight, you don't just visit after it's done, you get to be part of the process. The grand opening on September 19, 2026 already sounds worth the trip.
MugiMy throat is getting thirsty just thinking about it! A toast just 90 seconds from the station, with the first pint of the trip? Yeah, now I want one.
A station-front flagship store for Choshi
Choshi Beer, run by Choshi Cheers in Choshi City, Chiba, is currently advancing the crowdfunding project titled “Choshi Station Front: Let’s build the new Choshi Beer storefront together” on CAMPFIRE. In its Instagram post, the brewery announced that only two days remained in the campaign, thanked supporters, and set a next goal of 8.88 million yen.
A place for the first drink of the trip, and an everyday stop
According to the company’s announcement, the new store will be located about a 90-second walk from Choshi Station and is scheduled to open on September 19, 2026. The concept is to create a place where visitors can enjoy their first drink after arriving in town, while locals can drop in after work or when meeting friends. It is designed not just as a sales point, but as a hub that brings movement and connection to the station area.
A place built together with supporters
The project also plans to display supporter names on a board inside the finished store. That makes it more than a place to visit after the fact; backers can feel involved in the store’s creation itself. Choshi Beer has long focused on building spaces that reflect the appeal of Choshi and connect people, and this station-front expansion is a natural extension of that effort.
The crowdfunding campaign ends on June 26.
