Hop BroAt Daikanyama's Bibibi., they're holding a launch event for a new original beer created with Shimokawa Mori Brewery in Shimokawa Town, Hokkaido. Over the two days of May 22 and 23, there's already a lot to talk about before you even take a sip.
MugiWait, so it's brewed in Shimokawa Town even though you're drinking it in Tokyo!? That feels like a long-distance couple that somehow gets along ridiculously well, and now I'm curious!
Hop BroWhat's more, the 22nd is limited to 20 people and requires advance registration, so you can really listen to the story behind the creation and the brewing process on-site. They'll even connect to Hokkaido on the big screen for a brewer interview.
MugiWhat's a brewer!? Does a brewer interview mean you get to ask the person who made the beer all kinds of things directly?
Hop BroExactly, it means the brewer. This time, in addition to Takashi Nakamura of Shimokawa Mori Brewery, Katsuhisa Takahashi, formerly of Bifuka Shirakaba Brewery, is also involved in supervision, so you can see the human connections behind the beer.
MugiOhhh! So it's not just a new release, it even includes the region's challenges. That's the kind of thing you want to root for!
Hop BroAnd the participation fee uses a price-set-by-intention system, so you pay according to how you feel. That kind of setup is pretty interesting for a craft beer event.
MugiWait, at a beer event you decide the price yourself!? My brain's calculator would be working overtime in front of the register!
Hop BroOn the 23rd, no reservation is needed, and they'll raise a toast at 18:00. Compared with the day before, it's a more casual session where you can enjoy the collaboration beer while taking in the story of how it was made.
MugiI want to go! Even if the style hasn't been announced, once you've heard the story of the land and the people, the first sip is definitely going to be delicious!
Taste a Pour from Shimokawa Town in Daikanyama
The craft beer bar "Bibibi." in Tokyo's Daikanyama will hold a launch event for a new original beer project it has been developing this spring. The setting is Shimokawa Mori Brewery in Shimokawa Town, Hokkaido. The beer was planned as a project inspired by a milestone year for co-owner Hibiya, who turned 50, and the team even traveled to the site while brewing moved forward.
This beer is designed to be more than just "trying a new release." In addition to Takashi Nakamura of Shimokawa Mori Brewery, who handled the brewing, Katsuhisa Takahashi, formerly of Bifuka Shirakaba Brewery, also took part in supervision. It carries not only ties to Shimokawa Town and Bifuka, but also support for community-building efforts and fresh challenges taking place in the region.
Two Days of Events
Friday, May 22 is limited to 20 people and requires advance registration. Along with an introduction to the new beer, the event will offer a deep dive into how it was made and what the brewing process was like on-site. There are also plans for a brewer interview connected live to Hokkaido using the large monitor inside the venue. The participation fee will use a "price set by the participant's intention" system.
Saturday, May 23 requires no reservation, with a toast at 18:00. Compared with the previous day, this session is less talk-centered and is designed as an easygoing chance to enjoy the collaboration beer while taking in the story behind its creation.
