Hop BroListen to this, Numazu-based Masters Brewing is heading to Yokohama Osanbashi Hall on September 12 and 13 for BeerFes Yokohama 2026.
MugiWhat! That's enough to make me go already, and Instagram says they're coming with four taps ready?
Hop BroExactly. Their three award winners are the core lineup: Otona no Amber Lager, Smoky Queen, and DaDaDa Dark Stout.
MugiNo way! An amber lager, a smoky beer, and a stout? That range is wild. That's not variety, that's a triple jump!
Hop BroThat's the fun part. Otona no Amber Lager is an easy-drinking amber lager, Smoky Queen brings that smoky aroma, and DaDaDa Dark Stout leans into roast and depth.
MugiHold on, I get roast, but smoke malt character suddenly sounds like science class!
Hop BroIt means the malt itself was smoked before brewing. That can give campfire or bacon-like notes, but when it's balanced, you get a refined smokiness that's seriously addictive.
MugiWhoa! And Otona no Amber Lager won silver in 2024, Smoky Queen won gold in 2026, and DaDaDa Dark Stout took bronze in 2026? That's a stacked award record!
Hop BroAnd the tasting lineup still isn't finalized. They'll center those three winners, but the last mystery fourth pour is still the big question.
MugiSo the last one is still secret? That hidden fourth tap is going to live rent-free in my head!
Hop BroPretty much. 'Four taps' just means four draft beers being poured at the booth, and for showing off a brewery's range, it's a strong lineup. Now I want to taste through it myself.
MugiThat's it, now I need a glass. If we spot them at Yokohama Osanbashi Hall, let's compare all three winners and chase down that last pour too!
