Gifu: BEER&CRAFT’s May Lineup Includes WCB Lager Tap Takeover, Tacos Day, and Gifu Castle Study Group
The beer pub BEER&CRAFT in Gifu City has released its business calendar for May 2026. The lineup includes a West Coast Brewing lager-focused tap takeover, a monthly Tacos Day, and the 40th Gifu Castle Study Group, offering events centered on beer and food.
Hop BroBEER&CRAFT in Gifu has a really hot business calendar in May. Lager, tacos, and castle talk are all lined up, so there are way too many reasons to go out for a drink.
MugiWhat!? West Coast Brewing is coming!? And it’s a lager-only takeover? That sounds seriously interesting!
Hop BroExactly. 5/16 is the LAGER ONLY TAP TAKEOVER. It’s a day to compare WCB’s lagers and really taste their clean character and depth.
MugiBut aren’t lagers just light and easy to drink? I don’t really get how you compare them!
Hop BroThat’s what makes it fun. Lager is carefully finished through cold fermentation, so even within the same “crisp” category, the aroma and the fullness of the malt can be completely different.
MugiOhh! So the TACOS DAY on 5/23 is something you can enjoy even with just a casual drink, right? No reservation needed is amazing!
Hop BroExactly. Tacos and beer are a perfect match. When spicy fillings meet hop bitterness or malt sweetness, everything suddenly tastes a notch better.
MugiWait, wait, there’s even the Gifu Castle Study Group on 5/31!? A beer pub talking about castles is just too much information!
Hop BroAnd it’s the 40th session, with the theme How to Enjoy Castles 100 Times More. Since it runs from 15:00 to 16:30, it’s nice because you can join in casually in the daytime drinking slot.
MugiIf it’s right by Meitetsu Gifu Station, it’s easy to get to, and this is perfect for a detour after work! I’m interested in lagers, tacos, and castles, so I want to go every weekend!
May Business Calendar Released
BEER&CRAFT, the beer pub in Suminoe-cho, Gifu City, just steps from Meitetsu Gifu Station, has announced its business calendar for May 2026. This month’s lineup includes events centered on craft beer tastings, plus food events and a talk event.
5/16 (Sat) BEER ON TAP
On this day, West Coast Brewing will host a LAGER ONLY TAP TAKEOVER. Featuring a lineup of lager styles, the event is being promoted as a chance to compare clean and layered flavors. WCB’s familiar “Shunta-kun” is also scheduled to visit, making it a day that should especially highlight the pairing of beer and food.
5/23 (Sat) TACOS DAY
The tacos day, which was well received last time, is back as a monthly event. No reservation is required, so you can stop by casually for even just one drink. Because tacos and craft beer are an easy match, it works not only for a night of serious drinking, but also for times when you just want to enjoy a light drink.
5/31 (Sun) 40th Gifu Castle Study Group
On the last weekend of May, the 40th Gifu Castle Study Group will be held at BEER&CRAFT. The time is 15:00 to 16:30, and the theme is “How to Enjoy Castles 100 Times More.” It is being introduced as a castle talk event to enjoy with a beer in hand, and first-time participants are welcome.
BEER&CRAFT is open weekdays from 15:00 to 23:00, Saturdays from 11:00 to 23:00, and Sundays and holidays from 11:00 to 21:00. It is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays, and its location near the station makes it convenient both for stopping in after work and for weekend detours. In May, there are nights suited to people who want to fully enjoy lagers, people who want something light with tacos, and people who want to enjoy the atmosphere of the shop along with an event.
