In a post dated March 19, 2026, the beer pub CRAFT PORT FUNABASHI in Honcho, Funabashi City, Chiba Prefecture, announced temporary hours ahead of the long weekend. As of that day, there were no new taps. However, because the existing taps were expected to turn over quickly, the pub encouraged visitors who had a beer in mind to come in early.

The post specifically highlighted two beers as options for a "slow drink" during a time when evening temperatures were still low.

- Streetlight Brewing "Moon Shine"
- Kyoto Brewing "Naimitsu Wane"

Both were introduced as suggestions for nights when you want to relax and slowly tip back your glass. Because the cherry blossom bloom was becoming a topic of conversation, the pub also suggested drinking craft beer as a companion to hanami. In line with the start of outdoor drinking season, it presented both an option for lingering over drinks inside and a way to enjoy the season.

CRAFT PORT FUNABASHI is a second-floor beer pub in the Funabashi Station area centered on craft beer. Its posts continue to use hashtags for solo drinking and meal visits, showing the shop's intent to appeal to everything from everyday use to casual bar-hopping. Because tap conditions can change quickly around the long weekend, if there is a beer you want, arriving early is the practical choice.
