Hop BroOGA BREWING COMPANY in Mitaka is running a giveaway where people turning 20 this year get one bottle of beer free. It is a limited-time event through March 31, and it is meant to support your first beer!
MugiWait, what! A coming-of-age celebration from the craft beer world?! And a whole bottle?!
Hop BroExactly. They announced it again in an Instagram post at 13:02 on March 11, 2026, and the eligible people are 20-year-olds living in Mitaka City or Musashino City. The conditions are showing ID, picking it up in person, and posting on social media with #OGABREWING and #はじめてのビール.
MugiThose conditions are pretty specific! So what beer do you get? Is it an IPA or a lager? What style is it?
Hop BroThat is the key point: the post does not name a fixed label, but says it is one bottle of an OGA-recommended original beer. In other words, the beer name and style are whatever is in the recommended slot that day. It is basically a selection tailored for first-timers.
MugiWhat! I was pretending I understood the word “style,” but it was actually kind of vague!
Hop BroA style is the beer category. It is basically the design blueprint name, like lager, IPA, or stout. It determines the bitterness, aroma, and drinking profile. So an “recommended bottle” is likely to be a type that is easy for beginners to get into.
MugiWhoa, so the beer world’s “first gacha pull” is professionally curated! And it sounds like there is hardly any chance of getting a bad one!
Hop BroAlso, OGA’s concept is “a beer that surprises first-time drinkers and turns them into beer lovers.” The taproom at Shimorenjaku 4-1-16 lets you drink while watching the brewing tanks, and they also offer bottle takeout and growler sales. Business hours are Wednesday through Monday, 11:00 to 20:00, closed on Tuesdays.
MugiA local brewery taking on someone’s “first beer” is just such a great story... I’m starting to want one too. Hop brother, let’s go stare at the tanks!
Hop BroLet’s go. This is the perfect gateway to a first beer, and to the next one too. Let’s do a practice toast!

OGA BREWING Context
On its official website, OGA also states its concept as "a beer that surprises first-time drinkers and turns them into beer lovers." At the taproom attached to its Mitaka brewery (4-1-16 Shimorenjaku, Mitaka City, Tokyo), visitors can enjoy beer while looking out over the brewing tanks, and the brewery also offers bottle takeout and growler sales.
Business hours are Wednesday through Monday, 11:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. (closed on Tuesdays). The same hours were announced in this post, so visitors planning to use the campaign should check the business day before going.
This project, in which a local brewery welcomes new adults’ “first beer,” is likely to draw attention as a practical example of expanding the reach of craft beer culture.
