BLACK TIDE BREWING to debut at Tohoku Beer Festival in Akita 2026
BLACK TIDE BREWING, the brewpub based in Kesennuma, Miyagi, will make its first appearance at Tohoku Beer Festival in Akita 2026, starting on June 12. The three-day event will bring together 15 breweries from Tohoku and Hokkaido and more than 50 craft beers.
Hop BroA big Tohoku beer festival is coming to Akita. BLACK TIDE BREWING from Kesennuma is joining for the first time from June 12 to 14, 2026, and that is worth tracking.
MugiWait, BLACK TIDE BREWING is heading to Akita? A first-time appearance makes it feel like a proper beer road trip.
Hop BroThe venue is Area Nakaichi Plaza, and breweries from Tohoku and Hokkaido are bringing more than 50 craft beers from 15 companies. Admission is free, so your liver has more to worry about than your wallet.
MugiWhoa, more than 50 beers? I would get decision paralysis before I even touched the first cup.
Hop BroAnd BLACK TIDE's beer names aren't announced yet, but the lineup should span limited brews, seasonal releases, fruity witbier, and beers made with Tohoku fruit. That's a wide style range.
MugiWhat even is a fruity witbier? Is that beer pretending to be juice, because that sounds dangerously convincing.
Hop BroWitbier often uses wheat for a softer texture, and yeast can create esters in aroma that read like banana or citrus. In plain terms, it's bright, fragrant, and easy to drink.
MugiHold on, esters in aroma sounds like chemistry class. But the second you say banana and citrus, I'm already making friends with the glass.
Hop BroWhat I like here is the brewpub sense of place from Kesennuma meeting other regional breweries in Akita. Add local food, and you can really trace the shape of each pour.
MugiI am fully ready for a festival drinking route now. If we spot BLACK TIDE in Akita on June 12 to 14, our first sip is absolutely getting applause.
