BLACK TIDE BREWING to Hold New Kesennuma Factory Completion Ceremony in April, with Tap Takeovers Across Multiple Cities
BLACK TIDE BREWING announced its April event information on Instagram. From the TAP TAKE OVER in Ryogoku, Tokyo on April 4, to the completion ceremony for its second factory in Kesennuma on the 11th, the joint TAP TAKE OVER in Fujisawa on the 24th, and the Shibuya festival starting on the 25th, activity continues across multiple locations.
Hop BroBLACK TIDE BREWING has put out a major April announcement. Centered on Kesennuma, events are coming one after another all the way to Tokyo and Kanagawa, so it already feels like the calendar is going to be packed with beer.
MugiWow! That's a ton of events! For one brewery to be touring so many places, that's incredibly energetic.
Hop BroFirst up is April 4 at Minna no Craft Beer Bar in Ryogoku, Tokyo: a TAP TAKE OVER. It's a setup where the brewery basically takes over most of the venue's draft lines all at once, and the appeal is being able to drink a whole spread of BLACK TIDE's world in one go.
MugiWhat? So it's like a total draft beer swap? If every pour is different, it sounds fun just choosing, but it's also the kind of thing where you can't decide because you want everything.
Hop BroThat's exactly the feeling. And on April 11 there's a completion ceremony for the second factory in Kesennuma, so it's not just events - the base itself is reaching a major milestone.
MugiOhh! A Kesennuma milestone like that really gets to me. Even though it's a beer story, I can almost picture the local scenery too.
Hop BroExactly. The venue is the BTB Second Factory at 245-6 Namigata, Kesennuma City, Miyagi Prefecture, and they've also announced a ceremony time for related parties. A factory completion like this affects production volume and line configuration, so it's extremely important for reading where things are headed next.
MugiWhoa, so adding a factory is that big a deal! So does that mean the range of beers we can drink might expand too?
Hop BroThat's a strong possibility. Then on April 24 there's a joint TAP TAKE OVER at Mugishuku Laundry in Fujisawa, and on April 25 and 26 they've also got SHIBUYA CROSS-CULTURE FEST in Shibuya, so they're really going hard on their presence in the Tokyo area.
MugiWhat, so they're basically touring Tokyo and Kanagawa? I'm already feeling buzzed just from following it all, but it sounds way too fun.
Hop BroThis announcement doesn't list the beer names yet, but the main theme is definitely a traveling festival centered on draft beer. While we wait for the follow-up on which beers will be connected, the right move on our side is to keep our throats ready.
MugiI'm completely ready to drink! Kesennuma's new factory, Ryogoku, Fujisawa, and Shibuya - I want to toast to all of it at once.
