CRAFT BANK announces 4th anniversary event with tank-poured Kölsch
CRAFT BANK in Fukuchiyama, Kyoto, has announced its 4th anniversary event. The brewery will serve its anniversary Kölsch straight from a 1,000L tank as ultra-fresh beer, with the event scheduled for July 25 from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. by reservation.
Hop BroI’ve got a fun one today: Craft Bank’s 4th anniversary. The brewery in Fukuchiyama, Kyoto is throwing a celebration on July 25, 2026.
MugiWhat! A 4th anniversary party already sounds great, but what makes this one such a big deal?
Hop BroThe headline act is beer poured straight from a 1000L tank. They’re serving a special anniversary Kolsch as what they call super-fresh draft.
MugiNo way! Super-fresh draft sounds absurdly intense. Are people basically lining up at the tank like it’s a hydration station?
Hop BroAnd the beer choice matters too: the anniversary Kolsch. It’s fermented with ale yeast, then conditioned cold, so it finishes crisp and easy.
MugiWhoa, fermented with ale yeast just turned this into science class! So... basically light and easy to drink?
Hop BroExactly, crisp with a soft aroma. And the venue is Craft Bank itself, an old bank building turned brewery and restaurant, which adds a lot of character.
MugiAn old bank brewery? That setting is doing a lot of work! And it’s only a five-minute walk from JR Fukuchiyama Station?
Hop BroYep. It’s reservation required from 8,000 yen, runs from 17:00 to 22:00, and they also have seven craft beers plus food for the night.
MugiI’m already in July 25 at 5 PM mode! Finishing 1000 liters together sounds like the kind of story I want to be part of.
Hop BroThat’s the spirit. A brewery in the middle of town pouring tank-fresh Kolsch for its fourth birthday is a very solid reason to show up thirsty.
MugiNow I’m stuck on I need that first sip! I want to book it, raise a glass, and find out what super-fresh really tastes like!
