Streetlight Brewing (Chuo Ward, Sapporo) announced its lineup for the three-day weekend in a February 20 post at 18:09. The highlight is the tapping of the final keg of "NZHZ2," which placed 4th in the HAZY IPA category at JAPAN BREWERS CUP 2026. In addition, Helles Bock "Kimi to Bock" cans will be sold at 10% off.
Hop BroThis holiday weekend's Sapporo news, Streetlight Brewing's announcement is pretty hot. In the Soen area, it's one where you can drink on-site and take some home!
MugiWhoa! What is that? The 3-day weekend lineup sounds like more than just a business notice - it feels like something bigger!
Hop BroThe headline is this: the final keg of NZHZ2 is being tapped. It was also introduced as placing 4th in the HAZY IPA category at JAPAN BREWERS CUP 2026.
MugiWow, that sounds strong! But how good is 4th place in the HAZY IPA category? And I only know that "hazy" means kind of cloudy!
Hop BroGood question. Hazy means a cloudy, aroma-forward style; the key is a juicy aroma design. Getting 4th in the competition means it was clearly recognized among breweries nationwide.
MugiOhh! Then hearing it's the last keg means it's definitely a drink-you-don't-want-to-miss - I need to hurry!
Hop BroThere's more good news for can drinkers too: Kimi to Bock cans are 10% off. The style is Helles Bock, the kind you can slowly enjoy for its malt depth.
MugiWhat is that thing, a Helles Bock!? The name already sounds like a boss character, and my vocabulary is getting left behind!
Hop BroPut simply, it's a bock leaning toward lager with drinkability plus body, a style where you can feel the malt sweetness and depth. Pairing it against the tap-only NZHZ2 is the best way to enjoy them.
MugiAnd with a pop-up curry vendor and a beer-stew project too, the whole experience of being there sounds delicious! At this point I just have to go have a drink in Sapporo!
The brewery Streetlight Brewing, located in Sapporo's Soen area, shared its weekend operating highlights on Instagram ahead of the three-day holiday. It was the kind of weekend update that puts beer at the center, true to a taproom's voice.
The post that is drawing beer fans' attention this time is the tapping of the last keg of "NZHZ2 (New Hazy 2)". In the post, the beer is introduced as having placed 4th in the HAZY IPA category at JAPAN BREWERS CUP 2026, making it sound like a beer you won't want to miss.
Also appealing to bottle and can fans is the 10% OFF sale on Helles Bock "Kimi to Bock" cans. For those looking to enjoy some malt depth, the lineup offers styles to choose from.
On the food side, the post also mentions a notice for a pop-up curry vendor and a "beer stew" project by the taproom staff, so it goes beyond simple serving information and instead suggests how to spend time on site. It can be described as a weekend operation characteristic of Streetlight Brewing, layering local food experiences on top of its own brewing identity.
With its easy-to-access location at 1-1 Kita 10-jo Nishi 19-chome, Chuo-ku, Sapporo, Hokkaido, one of the shop's strengths is being able to enjoy a draft beer on site and a can to take home at the same time. If you're looking for craft beer in Sapporo during the holiday, this is one place to prioritize.
