Gotojozo taps 10th Anniversary HAZY IPA in Kyodo
Gotojozo, the Setagaya craft beer bar and brewery in Kyodo, has tapped its anniversary beer, 10th Anniversary HAZY IPA, for its July celebration month. The brewery says the beer is still available as the month enters its final week, and the couple behind the brewery will appear at the bar on July 31.
Hop BroI want to talk about a 10th anniversary beer from Goto Brewery in Kyodo today. They’ve just tapped “10th Anniversary HAZY IPA.”
MugiWait, that name already sounds like a party! So HAZY IPA means the cloudy, super-hoppy kind, right?
Hop BroExactly. Goto Brewery is known as Setagaya’s first brewpub, and that fresh-from-the-source feel is a big part of the appeal.
MugiOooh, that suddenly feels very reachable! If it’s a 3-minute walk from Kyodo Station, I could get lured in after work.
Hop BroAnd they’ve got their regular Kyodo Ale as the backbone, with rotating seasonal releases on top. This anniversary beer is a seasonal special pint, basically.
MugiHold on, you just tossed that out like it’s obvious, but brewpub means what exactly? Not a pub painted blue, right?!
Hop BroFair question. A brewpub is beer brewed on-site and served right there. The tanks are so close the whole thing feels almost live.
MugiWhat is that, beer’s version of farm-to-table? And July being an anniversary month with ongoing updates sounds so fun!
Hop BroThe article says the husband and wife will also be in the drinking area on July 31 from 4:00 to 5:00 p.m. It really feels like ten years shared locally, not some flashy promo.
MugiWow, that makes it more than just a drink... a special pint at the usual spot hits weirdly hard.
Hop BroThey also said there’s still plenty left, so the timing looks good. That 10th Anniversary HAZY IPA sounds worth chasing for the aroma alone.
MugiThen it’s settled! I’m ready for my first sip to come out as “wow” instead of “oh, interesting.” I want one right now !
Gotojozo in Kyodo, Setagaya, is serving a 10th-anniversary seasonal beer called "10th Anniversary HAZY IPA." According to the brewery’s official website, the business opened as a beer bar in July 2016 and obtained a brewing license in July 2017. It has since operated as one of Setagaya’s early brewpub-style breweries, with its signature beer, Kyodo Ale, at the center of the lineup.
July is being treated as an anniversary month, and the brewery has been posting updates on Instagram throughout the celebration. In a post on July 27, Gotojozo said the campaign had entered its final week and noted that there was still plenty of anniversary beer left. The post also announced that the couple behind the brewery would be working in the dining area on Friday, July 31, from 16:00 to 17:00.
What stands out here is the brewery’s emphasis on the everyday experience of drinking fresh beer at the source. The taproom sits about three minutes from Kyodo Station on the Odakyu Line, and the brewery regularly rotates seasonal beers alongside its core offering. The anniversary Hazy IPA fits that approach: a limited beer designed to be enjoyed in the same room where the brewery’s story has been unfolding for a decade.
Rather than staging a large-scale campaign, Gotojozo is using the month to mark a milestone with regular customers and local beer drinkers. For a neighborhood brewery, that feels appropriate. The final week of July in Kyodo is shaping up to be a quiet but meaningful finish to a 10-year run.
