Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand to join Crank Beer’s 8th anniversary beer picnic on June 14
The Bunkyo-based brewpub will take part in Crank Beer’s anniversary event at Arakawa Toda Bridge Green BBQ Area on Sunday, June 14. The post says setup begins around 9 a.m., with walk-in participation welcome.
Hop BroA weekend plan just got more tempting. Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand is joining an anniversary beer picnic on June 14.
MugiWhat! A beer picnic means sitting outside and drinking on a blanket? That already sounds delicious.
Hop BroThe venue is Arakawa Todabashi Green BBQ Area, and they even warned people not to mix it up with the other Arakawa barbecue spot.
MugiWait, what even is a brewpub? That suddenly sounds like a magic spell. How is it different from a normal beer bar?
Hop BroIt means a place where you can drink on-site and they can also serve beer they brew themselves. So the star is house-brewed beer.
MugiOhhh! So even though beer names and styles aren't announced yet, there should still be a lot to try on the day?
Hop BroExactly. Their post literally says there will be lots of beer, including Hinomoto's own brews plus kegs from the other participating breweries.
MugiHold on, when you say kegs lined up, do you mean giant wooden barrels rolling in like some old port-town movie?
Hop BroUsually that means metal kegs. In plain terms, it's containers of draft beer lined up so people can sample a little of everything.
MugiAnd walk-ins are welcome, with drinking starting around noon? That's actually super easy to join. I like that they even remind people to bring water.
Hop BroThey start setting up around 9 a.m., pour until 4 p.m., and fully clear out by 5. With music and art too, it's a densely packed gathering.
MugiWow, doing small tasting rounds in the riverside breeze sounds perfect... my stomach and my throat have already arrived before I have.
Hop BroIt sounds like a riverside beer day where you soak up the anniversary vibe along with the pours, and now I absolutely want a drink.
Hinomoto Brewing & Beer Stand, a brewpub in Honkomagome, Bunkyo City, will join Crank Beer’s 8th Anniversary Beer Picnic on Sunday, June 14. The venue is Arakawa Toda Bridge Green BBQ Area, and the post specifically notes that it is not Arakawa Iwabuchi Green BBQ Area.
According to the announcement, setup starts around 9 a.m., drinking begins around noon, the event runs until 4 p.m., and the site will be fully cleared by 5 p.m. Walk-ins are welcome, and the post also recommends bringing drinking water.
The event brings together breweries, importers, food vendors, music, art, and more. The brewery/importer lineup includes `@tokyoaleworks_taproom`, `@beerplusplus_brewing`, `@nu10rin_brewing`, `@grow_brew_house`, `@letsbeerworks`, `@okeibrewery_brewing`, `@gahahabeer`, `@andbeer_brewery`, `@hinomotobeer`, and `@aq_bevolution`. With food, records, live music, camera work, and sound all listed as part of the program, it looks more like a dense neighborhood picnic than a standard beer festival.
No individual beer names are listed in the post, but it does say that there will be plenty of beer. That suggests Hinomoto’s own beers, alongside beers from the other participating breweries, will be part of the day’s drinking. For beer fans who like to sample across different producers, this is the kind of outdoor gathering worth keeping on the radar.
Information may be inaccurate. Please refer to the venue’s official channels for the latest details.
