CRAFT BANK in Fukuchiyama, Kyoto, will host a 4th-anniversary BBQ and Kölsch free-flow event on July 25, 2026. The program features a 1F outdoor venue, 1,000 liters of commemorative Kölsch, an original BBQ set, and live music.
Hop BroCRAFT BANK in Fukuchiyama is throwing a 4th anniversary event on July 25, 2026. “BBQ & all-you-can-drink Kölsch” already sounds like summer making very good decisions.
MugiWait, all-you-can-drink Kölsch and BBQ in one plan? My stomach just RSVP’d before the rest of me did!
Hop BroAnd it’s happening in CRAFT BANK’s first-floor outdoor space. You can enter the 1F and 3F after 5:00 p.m., and the BBQ itself runs from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m.
MugiThat’s the brewery that rebuilt an old bank, right? I love the idea of a place that used to protect money now protecting beer.
Hop BroExactly, and the star is a 1,000-liter anniversary Kölsch. Kölsch is fun because it uses top fermentation but still drinks really clean.
MugiHold on, top fermentation? That suddenly sounds like a science quiz. Are the yeast doing cannonballs on the surface?
Hop BroBasically, they use ale yeast for a little fruitiness, then shape it into a crisp, easy finish. So it stays refreshing and super drinkable.
MugiAnd the plan includes BBQ, a Kentaro Okawara glass, and live music too, right? That’s not just drinking, that’s a whole festival for my taste buds!
Hop BroYep. There’s a Rooftop LIVE from 9:00 p.m., and the unlimited drinks also cover soft drinks, highballs, and lemon sours.
MugiWhoa, that’s generous. But the house craft beer, other drinks, and snacks are cash-on extras, right? Good, my wallet wants a safety briefing first.
Hop BroRight, and it’s 20 and over only, with no drinking and driving. This is absolutely a public-transport kind of night.
MugiThen it’s settled: train there, toast there. BBQ, anniversary Kölsch, live music, old-bank vibes... now both of us seriously need a glass.
CRAFT BANK, based in Fukuchiyama, Kyoto, will hold a 4th-anniversary event titled "BBQ & Kölsch Free-Flow Plan" on Saturday, July 25, 2026. The event will take place in the brewery's 1F outdoor space, with BBQ scheduled from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Guests can enter the 1F and 3F areas after 5:00 p.m., and a Roof top LIVE is planned from 9:00 p.m., along with music live performances on each floor.
A key highlight is the brewery's 1,000 liters of commemorative Kölsch, brewed for the anniversary. The plan includes an original BBQ set, all-you-can-drink Kölsch, and an original glass featuring art by Kentaro Ohgawara. The free-flow menu covers Kölsch, soft drinks, highballs, and lemon sours. Other drinks, house-brewed craft beers, and light snacks will be sold separately.
CRAFT BANK began brewing in 2020 after repurposing an old bank building that had stood vacant for about 30 years. Located in Minamihonmachi, Fukuchiyama, the brewery has built its identity around a space that blends local character with beer culture. This anniversary event follows that approach by combining food, beer, and live music in a single evening.
The event is limited to guests aged 20 and over. The brewery also strongly prohibits drunk driving and asks attendees to use public transportation.
