A morning run and a drink at a brewery in a former school in Setagaya

At Ikejiri-Ohashi's "Afterschool Brewery," the morning run event "HYPER After School Beer Run" will be held on Sunday, May 31. The venue is on the schoolyard side inside HOME/WORK VILLAGE at 2-4-5 Ikejiri, Setagaya-ku. It is a plan to get moving from early in the day in a space renovated from a former school, then head straight back to the brewery.

The event starts at 9:00 a.m., with meetup at 8:45 a.m. The course is about 5 km, taking participants through Setagaya's quiet residential streets at an orderly pace. A key feature of the event is that after the run, you can linger and enjoy the afterglow at Afterschool Brewery.

After the finish: craft beer and soft drinks

The post says to enjoy the lingering aftertaste with a beer in hand after the run, and on the day there will be craft beer and soft drinks available. Participation is a one-drink-order system, with each person's actual cost paid on the day. Payment is cashless only, the price is 800 yen per drink (tax included), and up to two drinks are allowed. The run itself is free to join.

There is also guidance that bags can be left inside the brewery, and showers are available if needed. The showers on the sports club side of the gymnasium can be used for 400 yen. It's designed to make it easy to go straight from a morning run to a drink.

The atmosphere unique to Afterschool Brewery

Afterschool Brewery is a brewery inside HOME/WORK VILLAGE, a place that still carries traces of a school. Its appeal lies in being able to enjoy beer in a space where the old schoolyard and staff room still seem to linger. Even though it is in the middle of the city, the laid-back atmosphere seems like a great fit for a morning event.

This time, no specific beer brands are mentioned in the post, but the key point is that you can enjoy craft beer from the brewery after the run. It is an event to watch for as a beer-lover-friendly morning outing that naturally links running and drinking.
