TAP&CROWLER Shibuya to Host APE BREWING 12-Tap Takeover
TAP&CROWLER Shibuya will host an APE BREWING 12-tap takeover on Saturday, July 25. The event is set up as a `meet the brewer` session with brewer Matsumoto on site, plus takoyaki and DJ sets through the evening.
Hop BroShibuya is about to feel a little like Osaka, because on July 25, TAP&CROWLER Shibuya is hosting a 12-tap takeover.
MugiWhat? In Shibuya? And it’s with APE BREWING too? That name already sounds intense!
Hop BroIt is intense in a good way. You get a full lineup from the Osaka brewery, and this one is a meet the brewer event with brewer Matsumoto visiting in person.
MugiWait, meet the brewer? You mean we can actually talk to the maker while drinking the beer?
Hop BroExactly. You can hear how the beers were conceived and brewed, and on top of that there will be twelve taps pouring APE BREWING beers all at once.
MugiOkay, but what about beer names or styles? I’m totally the style-checking type when it comes to IPA, sour, and all that!
Hop BroThat’s the twist here. The individual beers haven’t been announced yet, so the styles are still under wraps, but it’s clearly built as a broad lineup tasting from APE BREWING.
MugiThat almost makes it more exciting! And TAP&CROWLER is the place with the pay-by-volume setup, right? That’s perfect for trying little pours.
Hop BroExactly, and that matters. Since you can order small amounts, it becomes really easy to do side-by-side tasting right in the middle of Shibuya.
MugiThat already sounds great, but then I saw they’re serving Matsumoto’s family-style Osaka takoyaki too. That’s unfairly tempting!
Hop BroAnd they’re not stopping there. There’s DJ play from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., so the whole thing turns into a full sensory event with drinks, food, and music.
MugiAt that point, I’m done resisting. Even if the beer list is a surprise, twelve APE taps plus takoyaki means I need a glass immediately!
Event Overview
TAP&CROWLER Shibuya will host the `APE BREWING 12 TAP TAKEOVER` on Saturday, July 25. The event is presented as a `meet the brewer` session with brewer Matsumoto visiting from Osaka, and 12 taps will be dedicated to APE BREWING beers.

About the Venue
TAP&CROWLER is a volume-based craft beer pub in Udagawacho, Shibuya. It is the kind of place where you can drink in the shop and compare beers at an easy pace, which fits a tap takeover format well. For beer drinkers looking to spend time with a carefully selected lineup in central Tokyo, it is a practical and focused stop.
What to Expect
Alongside the beer, the event will also serve Osaka takoyaki made from the brewer's family recipe, described in the post as an `okan no aji` dish. DJ sets are scheduled from 17:00 to 22:00, so the evening is designed around beer, food, and music in one place. It is a straightforward event for people who want to meet the brewer, sample a brewery's lineup, and spend a weekend evening in Shibuya around craft beer.
