Titans Craft Beer Taproom Announces Lager Plans and a Birthday Event in Its May Calendar
Titans Craft Beer Taproom in Otsuka, Tokyo, has released its May operating calendar. The taproom will be closed on the 5th and 6th, and the first half of the month includes a beer festival at Tokyo Midtown, while the latter half features a rooftop-opening Lager Fest, a DJ event, and a staff birthday celebration.
Hop BroTitans Craft Beer Taproom in Otsuka has put out its May schedule, and the first thing to note is that it will be closed on May 5 and 6.
MugiWait, they’re closed right in the middle of Golden Week! So does that mean we should head to the beer festival at Tokyo Midtown first?
Hop BroExactly. The plan is to go to the Craft Beer Invitational. West Coast Brewing and AQ Bevolution are teaming up, and 16 breweries are gathering at Tokyo Midtown, which is a seriously strong lineup.
MugiSixteen breweries is a lot, isn’t it? And what is this Wild Card thing, a playing card?
Hop BroNot quite. It’s more like an unexpected specialty slot. On top of lager styles and IPA styles, there’ll be beers you don’t usually get to encounter, so it’s the kind of event where wandering around the lawn plaza with a drink is half the fun.
MugiI see! Then when we head back to Otsuka, Titans will be waiting with 12 permanent taps.
Hop BroThat’s right. And it’s not just bottles and guest taps either - AQ Gyoza is one of the signature items too, so you can fall into an endless loop of great beer and snacks.
MugiWhat, the gyoza are strong too!? And they serve the beer in dedicated goblets? That suddenly sounds way more serious!
Hop BroThat’s what makes Titans feel like Titans. It’s designed so you can properly enjoy aroma and temperature, and in the latter half of May they’re also doing Lager Fest, DJ events, and a staff birthday project, so the place stays in festival mode the whole time.
MugiWait, they’re serving hot dogs at the ZAMAKEN BD Event too? That’s the kind of thing that sounds delicious before you even start drinking!
Hop BroAnd every Tuesday there’s TITAN TUESDAY with Titan-size drinks 300 yen off, plus stand-up comedy on Thursdays. May is basically a month where you have to drink at Midtown and finish the night in Otsuka.
MugiYeah, this is definitely a month that makes you want to toast with lager first, then keep drinking with gyoza and DJ sets!
Titans Craft Beer Taproom in Otsuka, Tokyo, has published its May operating calendar. The post notes that the shop will be closed on Tuesday, May 5 and Wednesday, May 6. During Golden Week, it is also encouraging visitors to attend Craft Beer Invitational at TOKYO MIDTOWN, held at Tokyo Midtown from Monday, May 4, 2026 (national holiday) to Tuesday, May 5, 2026 (national holiday).
This event is a beer festival organized by West Coast Brewing (WCB) and AQ Bevolution. According to official Tokyo Midtown information, 16 breweries are scheduled to participate. The lineup is broad, ranging from lager styles and IPA styles to rare Wild Card selections that you do not often get to try, making it a relaxed setup for drinking on the lawn plaza.
Titans' main location is a beer pub and taproom in Minami-Otsuka 3-chome. On its official site, it is presented as having 12 permanent taps, bottle sales, guest taps, and AQ Gyoza as the core of the shop. Beer is served in a dedicated goblet, so it is a place suited less to flashiness and more to carefully enjoying aroma and temperature.
The in-store events for the second half of May are as follows.
- 5/15 (Fri) and 5/16 (Sat): Lager Fest
A lager event held with the rooftop open. Details will be announced later.
- 5/22 (Fri): GEORGE COCKLE'S LAZY FRIDAY

May connects Golden Week outside events with in-store lager plans, DJs, and a birthday event. With its location just a short walk from the south exit of Otsuka Station, it looks like a month that makes it easy to drop in for a drink after work or visit with an event in mind.
