At CRAFT BEER BAR IBREW Ginza, a British-style TTO will be held over two days, May 16 and 17. Unlike beers that put flashy hop aromas front and center, this event focuses on the strengths of British ales: malt depth, balance, and how easy they are to keep drinking.

On the 17th, Nakamura, head brewer at Bighand bros., and Kagami from Inn Beers, an importer of British beer, are scheduled to visit. The event is designed to introduce the appeal of British-style beer from both the brewing and importing perspectives. In addition, a special ale that the two sides collaborated on specifically for this event will be unveiled.

The breweries and importers listed in the post as confirmed participants include Bighand bros., Inn Beers Beer & Cider, Culmination Brewing, EZO Beer, O'Hara's, IKO N Euro Pubs, Whiplash Beer, MARUHO, ORB Micropub, NAMAchan Brewing, Fuller's, Põhjala, TDM 1874 Brewery, G Brand Bespoke Beerers, and Chichibu Beer. With notable brands from Japan and overseas, including authentic British names, the highlight of this event is being able to enjoy the flow of British, Irish, and Scottish beer all in one place.

The venue, IBREW GINZA, is a beer pub in the Ginza-Yaesu area. Its convenient location makes it easy to stop by after work, and it is well suited to leisurely tastings of craft beer. In a calm atmosphere reminiscent of a British pub, this is the kind of event where you can compare styles side by side and really appreciate the differences.
