Lupulin Beer House in Ginza to host LUPURON's Pinot Noir Red launch event on June 13-14
Lupulin Beer House in Ginza will host a release event for LUPURON's Pinot Noir Red on June 13 and 14. The event aligns with the bar's 14th anniversary on June 9, with four taps pouring LUPURON beers and a special display of label artwork.
Hop BroThere’s a standout event in Ginza: Le Purin’s 14th anniversary lines up with a June 13-14 release celebration for LUPURON’s new Pinot Noir Red.
MugiWait, a Ginza LUPURON takeover? And it’s tied to the 14th anniversary too? That is both festive and extremely persuasive!
Hop BroThat’s the fun part. They usually pour one or two taps, but this time it’s a four-tap lineup of LUPURON, so you can compare the brewery’s character side by side.
MugiWhoa, but Pinot Noir Red sounds like a wine-like beer. Is this a pint, or did my glass just become fancy?
Hop BroPretty close, actually. The article presents it as a red-hued brew, made with Pinot Noir grape skins after pressing, so you get grape aroma and wine-like nuance layered in.
MugiThey use the grape skins too? So are we entering the tannin zone now? I asked about beer and suddenly I’m cramming for sommelier finals!
Hop BroExactly. That tannic grip is the gentle drying, tightening feel in your mouth. A little of it gives the flavor structure instead of letting it go flat.
MugiOkay, now I need this. And it’s not just drinks, right? They’re also showing three original label artworks by Asa Hiramatsu, which is absurdly classy for a beer night.
Hop BroAnd seeing them in Ginza is the rare part. On June 13 it opens at 3:00 p.m. with last call at 9:00 p.m., and June 14 last call is 8:00 p.m. The food-and-beer style stays the same, which totally fits Le Purin.
MugiThat settles it. Pinot Noir Red flight plus the artwork plus a 14th anniversary toast? I’m absolutely showing up hungry.
Lupulin Beer House, a beer pub in Ginza, Tokyo, will hold a launch event for LUPURON's new beer, Pinot Noir Red, on June 13 and 14. The timing matches the venue's 14th anniversary on June 9, making this a milestone celebration as well as a release event.
According to the post, the bar will keep its usual food-and-drink format, but the tap lineup will be special for the occasion. Instead of the usual one or two taps, four taps will be dedicated to LUPURON, giving guests a chance to experience a broader range of the brewery's beers. The only beer named explicitly in the post is Pinot Noir Red, described as a red liquid made with skins left after pressing Pinot Noir grapes.
The event will also feature three label originals by Asa Hiramatsu, who handles the interior design for Lupulin Beer House and the visuals for LUPURON. The original artwork is scheduled to be exhibited later at the brewery in Niki Town, so seeing it in Ginza will be a rare opportunity.
Hours for the event are June 13, 15:00 opening with last order at 21:00, and June 14, 15:00 opening with last order at 20:00. Reservations are accepted as part of normal service, but only for guests ordering both drinks and food. Lupulin Beer House is located on the 3rd floor of Urano Building in Ginza 6-7-7, and its regular hours are Tuesday to Friday from 17:00 to 23:00, and Saturday and Sunday from 15:00 to 22:00. For beer fans in Tokyo, it is a notable chance to drink LUPURON in a central Ginza beer pub setting.
